“Stupid robot, I want to speak to a human!” User Frustration Detection in Task-Oriented Dialog Systems

COLING 2025industry

Detecting user frustration in modern-day task-oriented dialog (TOD) systems is imperative for maintaining overall user satisfaction, engagement, and retention. However, most recent research is focused on sentiment and emotion detection in academic settings, thus failing to fully encapsulate implicat…

RoCode: A Dataset for Measuring Code Intelligence from Problem Definitions in Romanian

COLING 2024main

Recently, large language models (LLMs) have become increasingly powerful and have become capable of solving a plethora of tasks through proper instructions in natural language. However, the vast majority of testing suites assume that the instructions are written in English, the de facto prompting la…

Definitions Matter: Guiding GPT for Multi-label Classification

EMNLP 2023short findings

Large language models have recently risen in popularity due to their ability to perform many natural language tasks without requiring any fine-tuning. In this work, we focus on two novel ideas: (1) generating definitions from examples and using them for zero-shot classification, and (2) investigatin…

Vicinal Risk Minimization for Few-Shot Cross-lingual Transfer in Abusive Language Detection

EMNLP 2023long main

Cross-lingual transfer learning from high-resource to medium and low-resource languages has shown encouraging results. However, the scarcity of resources in target languages remains a challenge. In this work, we resort to data augmentation and continual pre-training for domain adaptation to improve…

Zero-Shot Data Maps. Efficient Dataset Cartography Without Model Training

EMNLP 2023long findings

Data Maps (Swayamdipta, et al. 2020) have emerged as a powerful tool for diagnosing large annotated datasets. Given a model fitted on a dataset, these maps show each data instance from the dataset in a 2-dimensional space defined by a) the model's confidence in the true class and b) the variability…

Location Prediction over Sparse User Mobility Traces Using RNNs: Flashback in Hidden States!

IJCAI 2020poster

Location prediction is a key problem in human mobility modeling, which predicts a user's next location based on historical user mobility traces. As a sequential prediction problem by nature, it has been recently studied using Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). Due to the sparsity of user mobility tra…

Multilingual Irony Detection with Dependency Syntax and Neural Models

COLING 2020main

This paper presents an in-depth investigation of the effectiveness of dependency-based syntactic features on the irony detection task in a multilingual perspective (English, Spanish, French and Italian). It focuses on the contribution from syntactic knowledge, exploiting linguistic resources where s…
