Perplexity-FactChecking

License: MIT

This respository contains the code for our paper: Towards Few-Shot Fact-Checking via Perplexity. Nayeon Lee*, Yejin Bang*, Andrea Madotto, Madian Khabsa, Pascale Fung, NAACL2021 [PDF]

How to run

1. Dataset Preparation

To download the testset with evidence used for experiments described in the paper, please fill in the request form - https://forms.gle/5key5cTqCu5ZLTnr7 The details of test set can be found in the paper.

After you download, please locate the data files under directory 'data/'

2. Obtain Evidence-conditioned Perplexity

By running the below script, files with perplexity scores will be saved in "/ppl_results" directory.

a. Causal Language Model

    bash obtain_evidence_conditioned_perplexity_clm.sh

b. Masked Language Model

    bash mlm/obtain_evidence_conditioned_perplexity_mlm.sh

3. Hyper-parameter search (of the optimal threshold), and evaluate performance

    bash run_few_shot.sh
