Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide natural language processing (NLP) systems and methods that utilize energy-based models (EBMs) to compute an exponentially-weighted energy-like term in the loss function to train an NLP classifier. Specifically, noise contrastive estimation (NCE) procedures are applied together with the EBM-based loss objectives for training the NLPs.
