Advancing machine intelligence requires developing the ability to perceive across multiple modalities, much as humans sense the world. We introduce OmniVinci, an initiative to build a strong, open-source, omni-modal LLM. We carefully study the design choices across model architecture and data curati…
Extracting causal relationships from a medical case report is essential for comprehending the case, particularly its diagnostic process. Since the diagnostic process is regarded as a bottom-up inference, causal relationships in cases naturally form a multi-layered tree structure. The existing tasks,
Large language models (LLMs) can rewrite the N-best hypotheses from a speech-to-text model, often fixing recognition or translation errors that traditional rescoring cannot. Yet research on generative error correction (GER) has been focusing on monolingual automatic speech recognition (ASR), leaving
Limited low-resource language corpora in professional domains like medicine hinder cross-lingual domain adaptation of pre-trained large language models (PLMs). While abundant English medical corpora could complement this scarcity, the effective mixture of English and target language, including machi
We introduce Speech-based Intelligence Quotient (SIQ) as a new form of human cognition-inspired evaluation pipeline for voice understanding large language models (LLM_Voice), designed to assess their voice understanding ability. Moving beyond popular voice understanding metrics such as word error ra…
In this study, we investigate whether non-English-centric large language models, ‘think’ in their specialized language. Specifically, we analyze how intermediate layer representations, when projected into the vocabulary space, favor certain languages during generation—termed as latent languages. We…
Deep learning models have performed well on many NLP tasks. However, their internal mechanisms are typically difficult for humans to understand. The development of methods to explain models has become a key issue in the reliability of deep learning models in many important applications. Various sali…
The creation of instruction data and evaluation benchmarks for serving Large language models often involves enormous human annotation. This issue becomes particularly pronounced when rapidly developing such resources for a non-English language like Japanese. Instead of following the popular practice…
While large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 have recently demonstrated astonishing zero-shot capabilities in general domain tasks, they often generate content with hallucinations in specific domains such as Chinese law, hindering their application in these areas. This is typically due to the absen…
In spite of the potential for ground-breaking achievements offered by large language models (LLMs) (e.g., GPT-3) via in-context learning (ICL), they still lag significantly behind fully-supervised baselines (e.g., fine-tuned BERT) in relation extraction (RE). This is due to the two major shortcoming…
Relation extraction (RE) has achieved remarkable progress with the help of pre-trained language models. However, existing RE models are usually incapable of handling two situations: implicit expressions and long-tail relation types, caused by language complexity and data sparsity. In this paper, we…
Word alignment has proven to benefit many-to-many neural machine translation (NMT). However, high-quality ground-truth bilingual dictionaries were used for pre-editing in previous methods, which are unavailable for most language pairs. Meanwhile, the contrastive objective can implicitly utilize auto…
