Style transfer is the task of transferring an attribute of a sentence (e.g., formality) while maintaining its semantic content. The key challenge in style transfer is to strike a balance between the competing goals, one to preserve meaning and the other to improve the style transfer accuracy. Prior research has identified that the task of meaning preservation is generally harder to attain and evaluate. This paper proposes two extensions of the state-of-the-art style transfer models aiming at improving the meaning preservation in style transfer. Our evaluation shows that these extensions help to ground meaning better while improving the transfer accuracy.
