Contrastive Learning Integration in IKD-SLU for Zero-Shot Cross-Lingual Accuracy on XTREME-R

Spoken language understanding (SLU) typically includes two subtasks: intent detection and slot filling. Currently, it has achieved great success in high-resource languages, but it still remains challenging in low-resource languages due to the scarcity of labeled training data. Hence, there is a growing interest in zero-shot cross-lingual SLU. Despite of the success of existing zero-shot cross-lingual SLU models, most of them neglect to achieve the mutual guidance between intent and slots. To address this issue, we propose an Intra-Inter Knowledge Distillation framework for zero-shot cross-ling

Research goal: How does the integration of contrastive learning into the I²KD-SLU framework affect the zero-shot cross-lingual accuracy on the XTREME-R benchmark compared to the original mutual guidance approach?
