DAPI: Domain Adaptive Toxicity Probe Vector Intervention, for Fine-Grained Detoxification

ACL 2025finding

There have been attempts to utilize linear probe for detoxification, with existing studies relying on a single toxicity probe vector to reduce toxicity. However, toxicity can be fine-grained into various subcategories, making it difficult to remove certain types of toxicity by using a single toxicit…

Decoding Dense Embeddings: Sparse Autoencoders for Interpreting and Discretizing Dense Retrieval

EMNLP 2025

Despite their strong performance, Dense Passage Retrieval (DPR) models suffer from a lackof interpretability. In this work, we propose a novel interpretability framework that leveragesSparse Autoencoders (SAEs) to decompose previously uninterpretable dense embeddings fromDPR models into distinct, in

ECO Decoding: Entropy-Based Control for Controllability and Fluency in Controllable Dialogue Generation

EMNLP 2025

Controllable Dialogue Generation (CDG) enables chatbots to generate responses with desired attributes, and weighted decoding methods have achieved significant success in the CDG task. However, using a fixed constant value to manage the bias of attribute probabilities makes it challenging to find an

Topic-Informed Dialogue Summarization using Topic Distribution and Prompt-based Modeling

EMNLP 2023short findings

Dealing with multiple topics should be considered an important issue in dialogue summarization, because dialogues, unlike documents, are prone to topic drift. Thus, we propose a new dialogue summarization model that reflects dialogue topic distribution to consider all topics present in the dialogue.…

Commonsense Knowledge Augmentation for Low-Resource Languages via Adversarial Learning

AAAI 2021technical

Commonsense reasoning is one of the ultimate goals of artificial intelligence research because it simulates the human thinking process. However, most commonsense reasoning studies have focused on English because available commonsense knowledge for low-resource languages is scarce due to high constru…

Fine-grained Post-training for Improving Retrieval-based Dialogue Systems

NAACL 2021long

Retrieval-based dialogue systems display an outstanding performance when pre-trained language models are used, which includes bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT). During the multi-turn response selection, BERT focuses on training the relationship between the context with m…
