Task: Question Generation
Input (English): However, a significant bottleneck that has been overlooked by previous efforts is the input vocabulary size and its corresponding word embedding matrix, often accounting for a significant proportion of all model parameters. For instance, the embedding table of the BERTBASE model, comprising over 30K WordPiece tokens BIBREF14, accounts for over $21\%$ of the model size. While there has been existing work on reducing NLP model vocabulary sizes BIBREF15, distillation techniques cannot utilize these, since they require the student and teacher models to share the same vocabulary and output space. This profoundly limits their potential to further reduce model sizes.
Output (English): Why are prior knowledge distillation techniques models are ineffective in producing student models with vocabularies different from the original teacher models?
