| Challenge: | Traditionally, anaphora resolution and ellipses resolution are limited in dialogues . despite rapid progress in dialogue systems, several difficulties remain . |
| Approach: | They propose a joint learning framework for modeling coreference resolution and query rewriting for complex, multi-turn dialogues. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art model on a rewritten dialogue dataset. |

Disambiguating Reference in Visually Grounded Dialogues through Joint Modeling of Textual and Multimodal Semantic Structures (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | incorporating textual and multimodal reference resolution improves performance in visual-based reference resolution . Phrase grounding is a well-established task for understanding semantic relations between mentions and objects . ambiguities caused by pronouns and ellipses can arise in visually grounded dialogues . |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that unifies textual and multimodal reference resolution by mapping mention embeddings to object embeddements and selecting mentions or objects based on their similarity. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework performs better in phrase grounding than other models for this task. |

| Challenge: | Existing models for ellipsis resolution in English are expensive and cumbersome . ellipas are hard, open problems in NLP, and can cause errors in translation, question answering, and dialogue understanding. |
| Approach: | They propose an alternative approach to ellipsis resolution based on question answering architectures. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms the current state of the art for ellipsis resolution in English . it shows that annotations can be useful for a subset of the known ellipas . |
