Abstract

In spite of the prevalence of figurative language, transformer-based models struggle to demonstrate an understanding of it. Meanwhile, even classical natural language inference (NLI) tasks have been plagued by spurious correlations and annotation artifacts. Datasets like eSNLI have been released, allowing to probe whether language models are right for the right reasons. Yet no such data exists for figurative language, making it harder to asses genuine understanding of such expressions. In light of the above, we release FLUTE, a dataset of 8,000 figurative NLI instances with explanations, spanning three categories: Sarcasm, Simile, and Metaphor. We collect the data through the Human-AI collaboration framework based on GPT-3, crowdworkers, and expert annotation. We show how utilizing GPT-3 in conjunction with human experts can aid in scaling up the creation of datasets even for such complex linguistic phenomena as figurative language. Baseline performance of the T5 model shows our dataset is a challenging testbed for figurative language understanding.
