MLRegTest is a benchmark for sequence classification, containing training, development, and test sets from 1,800 regular languages.
|
| 20 |
+
Regular languages are formal languages, which are sets of sequences definable with certain kinds of formal grammars, including
|
| 21 |
+
regular expressions, finite-state acceptors, and monadic second-order logic with either the successor or precedence relation in the
|
| 22 |
+
model signature for words. This benchmark was designed to help identify those factors, specifically the kinds of long-distance
|
| 23 |
+
dependencies, that can make it difficult for ML systems to generalize successfully in learning patterns over sequences. MLRegTest
|
| 24 |
+
organizes its languages according to their logical complexity (monadic second-order, first-order, propositional, or monomial
|
| 25 |
+
expressions) and the kind of logical literals (string, tier-string, subsequence, or combinations thereof). The logical complexity
|
| 26 |
+
and choice of literal provides a systematic way to understand different kinds of long-distance dependencies in regular languages,
|
| 27 |
+
and therefore to understand the capabilities of different ML systems to learn such long-distance dependencies. The authors think it
|
| 28 |
+
will be an important milestone if other researchers are able to find an ML system that succeeds across the board on MLRegTest.
