This week’s guests are Steven Feng, Graduate Student and Ed  Hovy, Research Professor, both from the Language Technologies Institute of Carnegie Mellon University. We discussed their recent survey paper on Data Augmentation Approaches in NLP (GitHub), an active field of research on techniques for increasing the diversity of training examples without explicitly collecting new data.
