Excited to share that our paper has been accepted to ACL 2024 (Findings)! Big thank you to my collaborators @vlachos_nlp and @michael_sejr! Can LLMs help you when writing scientific papers? We introduce automated focused feedback generation for scientific writing assistance. 🧵
Just released a new paper ! We show that LLMs encode the relative position of objects in a 3D subspace in their weights. A rudimentary world model. (🧵)
Check out our new preprint on analysing the research framings of #NLProc papers (w/ a focus on automated fact-checking, hate speech and related tasks) With fantastic collaborators @Eric_chamoun (lead) @michael_sejr and @vlachos_nlp ! 📝👇🏻
What are NLP papers really saying about the purpose and use of their models/datasets? 🤔 Who are they for? What problems do they solve? How are they used? We built a framework + tool to: (1) analyze framing trends across papers (2) help authors reflect on their own framing 🧵
Understanding the direction a field moves is crucial for anticipating problems and spotting gaps. But it's hard work - requires empirical analysis of arguments across hundreds of papers. But what if we could automate the process? Check out this new work with @Eric_chamoun!

Pleased to announce the next @FEVERworkshop at ACL2025! Regular workshop papers (ARR and direct submissions) due 15th of April! And new shared task focusing on reproducible and efficient verification of real world claims! Check fever.ai and get keen!
The golden pacifier has made it back to Cambridge! Big thank you to the #babylm and #connl teams for the award and a great workshop! Checkout the paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2410.22906
🥁 Drum roll... 🥁 🏆 The Best Presentation Award goes to ... 🎉 @RamintaIeva for presenting 📄"Comparative Study of Explainability Methods for Legal Outcome Prediction" 🤖⚖️ 🎊 Congrats! Award comes with 💵500 sponsored by @TechAtBloomberg 💻✨
For this week's @cambridgenlp reading group, @pietro_lesci presented his (+@clara__meister, Thomas Hofmann, @vlachos_nlp, @tpimentelms) recent paper "Causal Estimation of Memorisation Profiles" which won the Best Paper Award at #ACL2024 #NLProc Paper: aclanthology.org/2024.acl-long.…
𝘽𝙄𝙂 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙨 to our friend Geoff Hinton (alumnus of @Kings_College) who has just jointly won the @NobelPrize in #Physics "for foundational discoveries and #inventions that enable #MachineLearning with artificial neural #networks”. 🥳 🎉 🎊 🎈 🎉 🥳 Geoff visited us…
📣Hey #NLProc! We* are planning to organize a *ACL workshop on memorization in LLM. Goal: provide a central venue to discuss memorization from different angles (e.g., technical, legal, social, etc). We want to gauge community interest. Would you consider attending? (1/3)
Working on retrieval-augmented models with data you don't fully trust? Concerned about what your LLM might tell its users? Then check out my new paper! arxiv.org/pdf/2409.00781 👇
Big congrats to @pietro_lesci, @tpimentelms, @vlachos_nlp and the rest of the team for winning the best paper award at ACL! Incredible work!
If you’re at #ACL2024, today at 14:00 pass by our poster! @tpimentelms and I will be there to talk about our paper “Causal Estimation of Memorisation Profiles” w @clara__meister, Thomas Hofmann, and @vlachos_nlp
Happy to share our #ACL2024 paper: "Causal Estimation of Memorisation Profiles" 🎉 Drawing from econometrics, we propose a principled and efficient method to estimate memorisation using only observational data! See 🧵 +@clara__meister, Thomas Hofmann, @vlachos_nlp, @tpimentelms
