MIO: A Foundation Model on Multimodal Tokens

EMNLP 2025

In this paper, we introduce MIO, a novel foundation model built on multimodal tokens, capable of understanding and generating speech, text, images, and videos in an end-to-end, autoregressive manner. While the emergence of large language models (LLMs) and multimodal large language models (MM-LLMs) p

Semi-Automated Construction of Sense-Annotated Datasets for Practically Any Language

COLING 2025main

High-quality sense-annotated datasets are vital for evaluating and comparing WSD systems. We present a novel approach to creating parallel sense-annotated datasets, which can be applied to any language that English can be translated into. The method incorporates machine translation, word alignment,…

Translation-based Lexicalization Generation and Lexical Gap Detection: Application to Kinship Terms

ACL 2024long

Constructing lexicons with explicitly identified lexical gaps is a vital part of building multilingual lexical resources. Prior work has leveraged bilingual dictionaries and linguistic typologies for semi-automatic identification of lexical gaps. Instead, we propose a generally-applicable algorithmi…

Don’t Trust ChatGPT when your Question is not in English: A Study of Multilingual Abilities and Types of LLMs

EMNLP 2023long main

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated exceptional natural language understanding abilities, and have excelled in a variety of natural language processing (NLP) tasks. Despite the fact that most LLMs are trained predominantly on English, multiple studies have demonstrated their capabilities…

From Adversarial Arms Race to Model-centric Evaluation: Motivating a Unified Automatic Robustness Evaluation Framework

ACL 2023findings

Textual adversarial attacks can discover models’ weaknesses by adding semantic-preserved but misleading perturbations to the inputs. The long-lasting adversarial attack-and-defense arms race in Natural Language Processing (NLP) is algorithm-centric, providing valuable techniques for automatic robust…

RoChBert: Towards Robust BERT Fine-tuning for Chinese

EMNLP 2022finding

Despite of the superb performance on a wide range of tasks, pre-trained language models (e.g., BERT) have been proved vulnerable to adversarial texts. In this paper, we present RoChBERT, a framework to build more Robust BERT-based models by utilizing a more comprehensive adversarial graph to fuse Ch…

Counterfactual Adversarial Learning with Representation Interpolation

EMNLP 2021finding

Deep learning models exhibit a preference for statistical fitting over logical reasoning. Spurious correlations might be memorized when there exists statistical bias in training data, which severely limits the model performance especially in small data scenarios. In this work, we introduce Counterfa…
