| Challenge: | We compare gaBERT to multilingual BERT and the monolingual Irish WikiBERT and show that gaBERt provides better representations for downstream parsing tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a monolingual BERT model for the Irish language that provides better representations for a downstream parsing task. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model performs better than the multilingual BERT and the monolingual Irish WikiBERT on a parsing task. |
Do Stochastic Parrots have Feelings Too? Improving Neural Detection of Synthetic Text via Emotion Recognition (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent advances in generative AI have shone a spotlight on high-performance synthetic text generation technologies. |
| Approach: | They propose to use emotion-driven pretrained language models to generate synthetic text that lacks emotional coherence. |
| Outcome: | The proposed detector achieves significant improvements across a range of synthetic text generators, various sized models, datasets, and domains. |
