Aligning Complex Knowledge Graph Question Answering as Knowledge-Aware Constrained Code Generation

COLING 2025main

Generating executable logical forms (LF) using Large Language Models (LLMs) in a few-shot setting for Knowledge Graph Question Answering (KGQA) is becoming popular. However, their performance is still limited due to very little exposure to the LF during pre-training of LLMs, resulting in many syntac…

Let’s Play Across Cultures: A Large Multilingual, Multicultural Benchmark for Assessing Language Models’ Understanding of Sports

EMNLP 2025

Language Models (LMs) are primarily evaluated on globally popular sports, often overlooking regional and indigenous sporting traditions. To address this gap, we introduce CultSportQA , a benchmark designed to assess LMs’ understanding of traditional sports across 60 countries and 6 continents, encom

Automatic Interpretation of Line Probe Assay Test for Tuberculosis

AAAI 2024technical

Line Probe Assay (LPA) is a widely used method for diagnosing drug-resistant tuberculosis (DRTB), but it is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process that requires expert interpretation. DRTB is a significant threat to global TB control efforts and its prompt diagnosis is critical for initiating…

Quantile-Based Maximum Likelihood Training for Outlier Detection

AAAI 2024technical

Discriminative learning effectively predicts true object class for image classification. However, it often results in false positives for outliers, posing critical concerns in applications like autonomous driving and video surveillance systems. Previous attempts to address this challenge involved tr…

SymKGQA: Few-Shot Knowledge Graph Question Answering via Symbolic Program Generation and Execution

ACL 2024long

Semantic Parsing of natural language questions into their executable logical form (LF) has shown state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance for Knowledge Graph Question Answering (KGQA). However, these methods are not applicable for real-world applications, due to lack of KG-specific training data. Recent…

Normalizing Flow Based Feature Synthesis for Outlier-Aware Object Detection

CVPR 2023highlight

Real-world deployment of reliable object detectors is crucial for applications such as autonomous driving. However, general-purpose object detectors like Faster R-CNN are prone to providing overconfident predictions for outlier objects. Recent outlier-aware object detection approaches estimate the d…
