Output range of BERT model shrinks after fine-tuning on domain specific dataset
$begingroup$
My model's sigmoid output range has shrunk after transfer learning with small a dataset. My pretrained model has an output range of 0 to 1. After fine-tuning with a smaller domain specific dataset, the model's output range is about 0.25 to 0.6. What is wrong with this model? I will show some key methods and code of my training. Please help, thanks.
My purpose is to train a model to score how relevant a sentence is to a query.
So I trained a LTR (learning to rank) model with a big dataset. I use BERT (nlp-pretrained model) to do the LM model training. BERT is used to extract the feature of sentences. Then I map the output of BERT to a single number using linear layer. Finally I use a sigmoid function to make the output range 0 to 1. Eventually I make the score function like this:
score of sentence = sigmoid(Linear(Bert(query,sentence)))
model:
model_output = score(q,a)-score(q,b)
The dataset consist of pairwise queries and sentences. The loss function is like hinge loss:
loss=1/2*sum(square(max(0,tau-(score_func(query,senA)-score_func(query,senB))))
It could also be written as this:
loss=1/2*sum(square(max(0,tau - model_output)))
The tau is the minus gap of score of two sentences. I use tau = 0.1 all the time.
After LM model training I use a test dataset to evaluate the model. The output range of model is 0 to 1.
Then I use a smaller domain specific dataset to fine-tune the model. Finally I use the same test dataset as above to evaluate this fine-tuned model, that resulted in the model output range changing. It changed from 0 - 1 to about 0.25 to 0.6.
It look like fine-tuning with domain data compresses the output range of model. Why did this happen?
I guess output range of the original model must have the same distribution when it is fine-tuned.
