What I know now is that the greatest killer of momentum isn’t the wrong path, it’s not getting started.

For example, Is- lam and Hinduism do not consider aggression and femi- ninity as antithetical

In most cases women are able to neither control vio- lence against themselves nor modify their abusers’ behaviors according to their own will

Men, on the other hand, often minimize their violence against female partners or blame the victim, which reflects a greater sense of entitlement to such behavior than for women.

demanding attention, expressing anger, escape, and punishment as motives that compel women to engage in violent behavior.

On the CTS, both behaviors would be assessed at a lower magnitude of violence than physical hits.

The dynamics of domestic violence involve the goal of dominating women by uti- lizing various tactics of coercive control in both public and private arenas so as to maintain the systems of patriarchy in society.

The main critique of studies using the CTS cen- ters on the argument that the scales do not allow any room for contexts and motives of intimate partner vio- lence

Some research- ers and activists tend to define battering as a pattern of intimidation, coercive control, and oppression

corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF)/hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis system plays an important role in the stress response. CRF is released from the hypothalamus, with stimulation of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) release from the pituitary, resulting in glucocorticoid (Cortisol in man) release from the adrenal, which in turn has a negative feedback effect on the axis at the level of the pituitary, as well as central brain sites including hypothalamus and hippocampus.

Weak Supervision For weak supervision, we only consider the 97% of the dataset where the overlap with an answer choice was at least 5 char- acters as candidates for pseudolabels. Following prior work (Lang et al., 2022a,b), we additionally used a technique called the cut statistic to select a high-quality subset of the weakly labeled data to re- duce the noise in the training process. We selected a subset of size 75% to decrease noise while still choosing a large enough set to ensure all acronyms were seen during training. We fine-tuned a Pub- MedBERT (Gu et al., 2021) model, a BERT variant th…

fter annotation of the data, we create three versions of the dataset: token-level, phrase-level, and relation-level. For the first, we split all word in the example and assigned them their respective label or none if they were not part of a label (

Since we cannot query GPT-3 on this dataset, we distill and transfer a model trained on the outputs from Dataset 1.

While InstructGPT (Ouyang et al., 2022) has 2% or 1 𝑘 extraction examples in its training, the LLM output is never converted to a structured form, and extraction examples are only evaluated qualitatively for improvement over other models. That is, only results for classification and genera- tion tasks are quantified.

More recently, large language models such as T0 and InstructGPT have re-configured their training objectives to explic- itly encourage the model to perform well at such prompts

We therefore introduce guided prompt design to steer the LLM towards an easy- to-structure output and resolvers to map from the LLM outputs to the structured label space; see Figure 1.
