Capturing Human Cognitive Styles with Language: Towards an Experimental Evaluation Paradigm

NAACL 2025short

While NLP models often seek to capture cognitive states via language, the validity of predicted states is determined by comparing them to annotations created without access the cognitive states of the authors. In behavioral sciences, cognitive states are instead measured via experiments. Here, we in…

Evaluation of LLMs-based Hidden States as Author Representations for Psychological Human-Centered NLP Tasks

NAACL 2025findings

Like most of NLP, models for human-centered NLP tasks—tasks attempting to assess author-level information—predominantly use rep-resentations derived from hidden states of Transformer-based LLMs. However, what component of the LM is used for the representation varies widely. Moreover, there is a need…

Idiosyncratic Versus Normative Modeling of Atypical Speech Recognition: Dysarthric Case Studies

EMNLP 2025

State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) models like Whisper perform poorly on atypical speech, such as that produced by individuals with dysarthria. Past works for atypical speech have mostly investigated fully personalized (or idiosyncratic) models, but modeling strategies that can both

Residualized Similarity for Faithfully Explainable Authorship Verification

EMNLP 2025

Responsible use of Authorship Verification (AV) systems not only requires high accuracy but also interpretable solutions. More importantly, for systems to be used to make decisions with real-world consequences requires the model’s prediction to be explainable using interpretable features that can be
