Teaching NLP with Bracelets and Restaurant Menus: An Interactive Workshop for Italian Students

We developed an interactive workshop designed to illustrate the NLP and computational linguistics to Italian high schoolers.

That Looks Hard: Characterizing Linguistic Complexity in Humans and Language Models

This paper investigates the relationship between two complementary perspectives in the human assessment of sentence complexity and how they are modeled in a neural language model (NLM), highlighting how linguistic information encoded in representations changes when the model learns to predict complexity.

Interpreting Neural Language Models for Linguistic Complexity Assessment

This thesis presents a model-driven study of multiple phenomena associated with linguistic complexity, and how those get encoded by neural language models' learned representations.

UmBERTo-MTSA@ AcCompl-It: Improving Complexity and Acceptability Prediction with Multi-task Learning on Self-Supervised Annotations

This work describes a self-supervised data augmentation approach used to improve learning models' performances when only a moderate amount of labeled data is available.

ETC-NLG: End-to-end Topic-Conditioned Natural Language Generation

We present ETC-NLG, an approach leveraging topic modeling annotations to enable fully-unsupervised End-to-end Topic-Conditioned Natural Language Generation over emergent topics in unlabeled document collections.

ICLR 2020 Trends: Better & Faster Transformers for Natural Language Processing

A summary of promising directions from ICLR 2020 for better and faster pretrained tranformers language models.

Covid-19 Semantic Browser

A semantic browser for SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 powered by neural language models.
