ADAPTIVE IE: Investigating the Complementarity of Human-AI Collaboration to Adaptively Extract Information on-the-fly

COLING 2025main

Information extraction (IE) needs vary over time, where a flexible information extraction (IE) system can be useful. Despite this, existing IE systems are either fully supervised, requiring expensive human annotations, or fully unsupervised, extracting information that often do not cater to user’s n…

Correlating instruction-tuning (in multimodal models) with vision-language processing (in the brain)

ICLR 2025poster

Transformer-based language models, though not explicitly trained to mimic brain recordings, have demonstrated surprising alignment with brain activity. Progress in these models—through increased size, instruction-tuning, and multimodality—has led to better representational alignment with neural data…

Is your benchmark truly adversarial? AdvScore: Evaluating Human-Grounded Adversarialness

NAACL 2025long

Adversarial datasets should validate AI robustness by providing samples on which humans perform well, but models do not. However, as models evolve, datasets can become obsolete. Measuring whether a dataset remains adversarial is hindered by the lack of a standardized metric for measuring adversarial…

PEDANTS: Cheap but Effective and Interpretable Answer Equivalence

EMNLP 2024finding

Question answering (QA) can only make progress if we know if an answer is correct, but current answer correctness (AC) metrics struggle with verbose, free-form answers from large language models (LLMs). There are two challenges with current short-form QA evaluations: a lack of diverse styles of eval…

SciDoc2Diagrammer-MAF: Towards Generation of Scientific Diagrams from Documents guided by Multi-Aspect Feedback Refinement

EMNLP 2024finding

Automating the creation of scientific diagrams from academic papers can significantly streamline the development of tutorials, presentations, and posters, thereby saving time and accelerating the process. Current text-to-image models (Rombach et al., 2022a; Belouadi et al., 2023) struggle with gener…

Explaining (Sarcastic) Utterances to Enhance Affect Understanding in Multimodal Dialogues

AAAI 2023technical

Conversations emerge as the primary media for exchanging ideas and conceptions. From the listener’s perspective, identifying various affective qualities, such as sarcasm, humour, and emotions, is paramount for comprehending the true connotation of the emitted utterance. However, one of the major hur…

Global Readiness of Language Technology for Healthcare: What Would It Take to Combat the Next Pandemic?

COLING 2022main

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought out both the best and worst of language technology (LT). On one hand, conversational agents for information dissemination and basic diagnosis have seen widespread use, and arguably, had an important role in fighting against the pandemic. On the other hand, it has al…

Super-NaturalInstructions: Generalization via Declarative Instructions on 1600+ NLP Tasks

EMNLP 2022main

How well can NLP models generalize to a variety of unseen tasks when provided with task instructions? To address this question, we first introduce Super-NaturalInstructions, a benchmark of 1,616 diverse NLP tasks and their expert-written instructions. Our collection covers 76 distinct task types, in…
