Input: Existing studies on semantic parsing mainly focus on the in-domain setting. We formulate cross-domain semantic parsing as a domain adaptation problem: train a semantic parser on some source domains and then adapt it to the target domain. Due to the diversity of logical forms in different domains, this problem presents unique and intriguing challenges. By converting logical forms into canonical utterances in natural language, we reduce semantic parsing to paraphrasing, and develop an attentive sequence-to-sequence paraphrase model that is general and flexible to adapt to different domains. We discover two problems, small micro variance and large macro variance, of pretrained word embeddings that hinder their direct use in neural networks, and propose standardization techniques as a remedy. On the popular OVERNIGHT dataset, which contains eight domains, we show that both cross-domain training and standardized pre-trained word embedding can bring significant improvement.
Output:
