LiFi: Lightweight Controlled Text Generation with Fine-Grained Control Codes

In the rapidly evolving field of text generation, the demand for more precise control mechanisms has become increasingly apparent. To address this need, we present a novel methodology, LIFI, which offers a lightweight approach with fine-grained control for controlled text generation. Unlike previous studies that train pre-trained language models to follow discrete, categorical, and exclusive control codes, LIFI learns controlled text generation under the guidance of continuous, relative, and nonexclusive control codes. These fine-grained codes are automatically derived from an attribute classifier, initially trained with a small amount of labeled data and subsequently employed to label abundant unlabeled data, thus garnering more extensive supervision signals. Moreover, to achieve efficient control, we incorporate the fine-grained control codes with adapters, a parameter- and compute-efficient way to steer a pre-trained language model. We evaluate LIFI on two conventional tasks -- sentiment control and topic control -- and one newly proposed task -- stylistic novel writing. Comprehensive experimental results validate the effectiveness of our proposed methods, demonstrating substantial performance improvements over existing baselines.
