Also: not the usual #NLProc topic, but if you're working on genetic AI models, I’d love to connect! I'm exploring the intersection of behavioral genomics and multi-modal AI for behavior understanding.

Excited to attend #ACL2025NLP in Vienna next week! I’ll be presenting our #NAACL2025 paper, PICLe, at the first workshop on Large Language Models and Structure Modeling (XLLM) on Friday. Come by our poster if you’re into NER and ICL with pseudo-annotation. arxiv.org/abs/2412.11923

PICLe: Pseudo-Annotations for In-Context Learning in Low-Resource Named Entity Detection

In-context learning (ICL) enables Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform tasks using few demonstrations, facilitating task adaptation when labeled examples are hard to obtain. However, ICL is sensiti...

(NAACL) Luca and @debjit-paul.bsky.social's work looks at how we can guide LLMs to generate logically sound arguments. Introducing FIPO: a fallacy-informed framework that improves preference optimization to help LLMs avoid logical fallacies in argumentation.

Couldn't attend @naaclmeeting.bsky.social in person as I didn't get a visa on time 🤷‍♀️ My colleague @mismayil.bsky.social will present PICLe on my behalf today, May 1st, at 3:15 pm in RUIDOSO. Feel free to reach out if you want to chat more!

VinaBench: Benchmark for Faithful and Consistent Visual Narratives

Visual narrative generation transforms textual narratives into sequences of images illustrating the content of the text. However, generating visual narratives that are faithful to the input text and s...

NEW PAPER ALERT: Generating visual narratives to illustrate textual stories remains an open challenge, due to the lack of knowledge to constrain faithful and self-consistent generations. Our #CVPR2025 paper proposes a new benchmark, VinaBench, to address this challenge.

Excited to share that we will present PICLe at @naaclmeeting.bsky.social main conference!

🚀 Introducing PICLe: a framework for in-context named-entity detection (NED) using pseudo-annotated demonstrations. 🎯 No human labeling needed—yet it outperforms few-shot learning with human annotations! #AI #NLProc #LLMs #ICL #NER

🚨 New Preprint!! LLMs trained on next-word prediction (NWP) show high alignment with brain recordings. But what drives this alignment—linguistic structure or world knowledge? And how does this alignment evolve during training? Our new paper explores these questions. 👇🧵

Lots of great news out of the EPFL NLP lab these last few weeks. We'll be at @iclr-conf.bsky.social and @naaclmeeting.bsky.social in April / May to present some of our work in training dynamics, model representations, reasoning, and AI democratization. Come chat with us during the conference!

🚨 New Paper! Can neuroscience localizers uncover brain-like functional specializations in LLMs? 🧠🤖 Yes! We analyzed 18 LLMs and found units mirroring the brain's language, theory of mind, and multiple demand networks! w/ @gretatuckute.bsky.social, @abosselut.bsky.social, @mschrimpf.bsky.social 🧵👇
