Determining and ranking the most salient entities in a text is critical for user-facing systems, especially as users increasingly rely on models to interpret long documents they only partially read. Graded entity salience addresses this need by assigning entities scores that reflect their relative i…
Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT and LLaMA excel in natural language tasks, e.g., text generation and machine translation. However, inherent biases from training on vast Internet datasets potentially amplify harmful stereotypes—widely held, oversimplified, and often inaccurate generalization
Work on shallow discourse parsing in English has focused on the Wall Street Journal corpus, the only large-scale dataset for the language in the PDTB framework. However, the data is not openly available, is restricted to the news domain, and is by now 35 years old. In this paper, we present and eval…
We describe a system for deep reinforcement learning of robotic manipulation skills applied to a large-scale real-world task: sorting recyclables and trash in office buildings. Real-world deployment of deep RL policies requires not only effective training algorithms, but the ability to bootstrap rea…
