Revisiting Populations in multi-agent Communication

ICLR 2023poster

Despite evidence from cognitive sciences that larger groups of speakers tend to develop more structured languages in human communication, scaling up to populations has failed to yield significant benefits in emergent multi-agent communication. In this paper we advocate for an alternate population-le…

Emergent Communication at Scale

ICLR 2022spotlight

Emergent communication aims for a better understanding of human language evolution and building more efficient representations. We posit that reaching these goals will require scaling up, in contrast to a significant amount of literature that focuses on setting up small-scale problems to tease out d…

Expressivity of Emergent Languages is a Trade-off between Contextual Complexity and Unpredictability

ICLR 2022poster

Researchers are using deep learning models to explore the emergence of language in various language games, where agents interact and develop an emergent language to solve tasks. We focus on the factors that determine the expressivity of emergent languages, which reflects the amount of information ab…
