| Challenge: | Existing studies have shown that automated evaluation approaches correlate with human ratings in English, but this is unclear for other languages. |
| Approach: | They construct a small-scale pilot dataset containing article-summary pairs and human ratings in English, Chinese and Indonesian to measure the strength of summaries. |
| Outcome: | The results show that standard metrics are unreliable measures of quality in Chinese and Indonesian. |

| Challenge: | Qualitative analysis is widely adopted across many social science disciplines. |
| Approach: | They propose a theory-informed computational method for measuring inductive coding results from humans and GAI. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method captures breadth, consensus, unique contribution, and systematic deviation without assuming ground truth. |

Linyong Nan, Dragomir Radev, Rui Zhang, Amrit Rau, Abhinand Sivaprasad, Chiachun Hsieh, Xiangru Tang, Aadit Vyas, Neha Verma, Pranav Krishna, Yangxiaokang Liu, Nadia Irwanto, Jessica Pan, Faiaz Rahman, Ahmad Zaidi, Mutethia Mutuma, Yasin Tarabar, Ankit Gupta, Tao Yu, Yi Chern Tan, Xi Victoria Lin, Caiming Xiong, Richard Socher, Nazneen Fatema Rajani
| Challenge: | Data-to-text annotations can be costly when dealing with tables with nontrivial structures. |
| Approach: | They propose a procedure for extracting semantic triples from tables that encodes their structures by exploiting table headers and table title. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method exploits the semantic dependencies between table headers and title to extract semantic triples from tables. |

Qingfeng Sun, Yujing Wang, Can Xu, Kai Zheng, Yaming Yang, Huang Hu, Fei Xu, Jessica Zhang, Xiubo Geng, Daxin Jiang
| Challenge: | Existing studies focus on multimodal dialogue models but neglect generation methods. |
| Approach: | They propose a multimodal dialogue response generation task which requires multimodal dialogs containing both texts and images which are difficult to obtain. |
| Outcome: | Experiments show that the proposed model can generate informative text and high-resolution image responses. |
