Social Commonsense-Guided Search Query Generation for Open-Domain Knowledge-Powered Conversations (2023.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Open-domain dialog generates search queries that help obtain relevant knowledge for holding informative conversations. |
| Approach: | They propose to integrate social commonsense reasoning into internet search queries . they use a commonsensible dialog system to establish connections related to the conversation topic . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework overcomes limitations of existing query generation techniques based on explicit dialog information and produces more relevant, specific, and compelling queries. |
Towards Reverse Engineering of Language Models: A Survey (2025.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Due to the vast amounts of data and computational resources required for model development, protecting the model’s parameters and training data has become an urgent and crucial concern. |
| Approach: | They define "reverse engineering" techniques as attacks on large language models and provide an in-depth analysis of them. |
| Outcome: | The proposed attacks are described as “reverse engineering” techniques on LMs and provide an introduction to existing protective strategies. |
