| Challenge: | Language Models can adapt to a few in-context examples, but without training. |
| Approach: | They examine how explanations of few-shot examples can help Language Models (LMs) explanations can improve performance even without tuning, they find . |
| Outcome: | The proposed explanations outperform hand-tuned explanations on small validation sets. |
Higher-order Comparisons of Sentence Encoder Representations (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a technique developed by neuroscientists compares activity patterns of different measurement modalities . a recent study examined the correspondence between popular pretrained language encoders and human processing difficulty . |
| Approach: | They employ a technique to compare activity patterns of different measurement modalities . they establish a correspondence between widely-employed pretrained language encoders and human processing difficulty . |
| Outcome: | The proposed technique can be used to compare representational geometries of neural models . it does not require large training samples and is not prone to overfitting, authors say . |
Know your audience: specializing grounded language models with listener subtraction (2023.eacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Effective communication requires adapting to the idiosyncrasies of each communicative context. |
| Approach: | They propose a method for specializing grounded language models without supervision . they fine-tune an attention-based adapter between a CLIP vision encoder and a large language model . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method allows a speaker to adapt to the idiosyncracies of the listeners without supervision. |

David Traum, Cassidy Henry, Stephanie Lukin, Ron Artstein, Felix Gervits, Kimberly Pollard, Claire Bonial, Su Lei, Clare Voss, Matthew Marge, Cory Hayes, Susan Hill
| Challenge: | Existing annotation schemes do not address dialogue structure. |
| Approach: | They propose an annotation scheme for meso-level dialogue structure that clusters utterances from multiple participants and floors into units according to realization of an initiator's intent. |
| Outcome: | The proposed annotation scheme is used to annotate a corpus of human-robot interaction dialogues. |

| Challenge: | The corpus contains 89,056 utterances and 310,095 words from 278 dialogues averaging 320 utterrances per dialogue. |
| Approach: | They present the Situated Corpus Of Understanding Transactions, a multi-modal collection of human-robot dialogue in the task domain of collaborative exploration. |
| Outcome: | The Situated Corpus Of Understanding Transactions (SCOUT) contains 89,056 utterances and 310,095 words from 278 dialogues averaging 320 utterrances per dialogue. |
