KERL: Knowledge-Enhanced Personalized Recipe Recommendation using Large Language Models

ACL 2025long

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) and the abundance of food data have resulted in studies to improve food understanding using LLMs. Despite several recommendation systems utilizing LLMs and Knowledge Graphs (KGs), there has been limited research on integrating food related KGs with LLM…

Multi-Sense Embeddings for Language Models and Knowledge Distillation

ACL 2025finding

Transformer-based large language models (LLMs) rely on contextual embeddings which generate different (continuous) representations for the same token depending on its surrounding context. Nonetheless, words and tokens typically have a limited number of senses (or meanings). We propose multi-sense em…

Replacing Paths with Connection-Biased Attention for Knowledge Graph Completion

AAAI 2025technical

Knowledge graph (KG) completion aims to identify additional facts that can be inferred from the existing facts in the KG. Recent developments in this field have explored this task in the inductive setting, where at test time one sees entities that were not present during training; the most performan…

Triplet Interaction Improves Graph Transformers: Accurate Molecular Graph Learning with Triplet Graph Transformers

ICML 2024poster

Graph transformers typically lack third-order interactions, limiting their geometric understanding which is crucial for tasks like molecular geometry prediction. We propose the Triplet Graph Transformer (TGT) that enables direct communication between pairs within a 3-tuple of nodes via novel triplet…

End-to-end Differentiable Clustering with Associative Memories

ICML 2023poster

Clustering is a widely used unsupervised learning technique involving an intensive discrete optimization problem. Associative Memory models or AMs are differentiable neural networks defining a recursive dynamical system, which have been integrated with various deep learning architectures. We uncover…

Energy Transformer

NeurIPS 2023poster

Our work combines aspects of three promising paradigms in machine learning, namely, attention mechanism, energy-based models, and associative memory. Attention is the power-house driving modern deep learning successes, but it lacks clear theoretical foundations. Energy-based models allow a principle…

GVdoc - Graph-based Visual DOcument Classification

ACL 2023findings

The robustness of a model for real-world deployment is decided by how well it performs on unseen data and distinguishes between in-domain and out-of-domain samples. Visual document classifiers have shown impressive performance on in-distribution test sets. However, they tend to have a hard time corr…

HG2Vec: Improved Word Embeddings from Dictionary and Thesaurus Based Heterogeneous Graph

COLING 2022main

Learning word embeddings is an essential topic in natural language processing. Most existing works use a vast corpus as a primary source while training, but this requires massive time and space for data pre-processing and model training. We propose a new model, HG2Vec, that learns word embeddings ut…

Can a Fruit Fly Learn Word Embeddings?

ICLR 2021poster

The mushroom body of the fruit fly brain is one of the best studied systems in neuroscience. At its core it consists of a population of Kenyon cells, which receive inputs from multiple sensory modalities. These cells are inhibited by the anterior paired lateral neuron, thus creating a sparse high di…

GraphFlow: Exploiting Conversation Flow with Graph Neural Networks for Conversational Machine Comprehension

IJCAI 2020poster

Conversational machine comprehension (MC) has proven significantly more challenging compared to traditional MC since it requires better utilization of conversation history. However, most existing approaches do not effectively capture conversation history and thus have trouble handling questions invo…

Reinforcement Learning Based Graph-to-Sequence Model for Natural Question Generation

ICLR 2020poster

Natural question generation (QG) aims to generate questions from a passage and an answer. Previous works on QG either (i) ignore the rich structure information hidden in text, (ii) solely rely on cross-entropy loss that leads to issues like exposure bias and inconsistency between train/test measurem…
