Brilliant and necessary work by @zmprcp et al. about metric interference in MT system development and evaluation: arxiv.org/abs/2503.08327 Are we developing better systems or are we just gaming the metrics? And how do we address this? Super (m)interesting! 👀
🚀 Last call for the Model Compression for Machine Translation task at #WMT2025 (co-located with #EMNLP2025)! Test data out on June 19 ➡️ 2 weeks for evaluation! Can you shrink an LLM and keep translation quality high? 👉 www2.statmt.org/wmt25/model-co… #NLP #ML #LLM #ModelCompression
🔍 Ciao! Stiamo studiando come l'AI viene usata in Italia e per farlo abbiamo costruito un sondaggio! 👉bocconi.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2n… (è anonimo, dura ~10 m, se partecipi o lo diffondi ci aiuti un sacco🙏) Ci interessa anche raggiungere persone che non si occupano di AI!
Super interesting paper by Subramonian et al: "Agree to Disagree? A Meta-Evaluation of LLM Misgendering" arxiv.org/abs/2504.17075 Turns out, misgendering is messier than just pronouns. I'd love to see this analysis extended to grammatical gender languages! #LLM #AI #ethics @fbk_mt
🚀 New shared task at #WMT2025 (co-located with @emnlpmeeting ): Model Compression for Machine Translation! Can you shrink an LLM and keep translation quality high?🔧 Submit by July 3 and push the limits of efficient NLP! 👉 www2.statmt.org/wmt25/model-co… #NLP #ML #LLM #ModelCompression

I’m very happy to share that our work “What the Harm? Quantifying the Tangible Impact of Gender Bias in Machine Translation with a Human-centered Study” won the Social Impact Paper Award at @emnlpmeeting 🎉 aclanthology.org/2024.emnlp-mai…
Announcing the #EMNLP2024 awards for: -- Resource Paper -- Social Impact Paper -- Special Theme Paper
Using LLMs as evaluators looks like a very interesting and promising direction, enabling simpler automatic post-editing pipelines. For those interested in fine-grained MT evaluation and APE, I recommend checking out this paper by Lu et al. (2024): arxiv.org/abs/2409.14335 @fbk_mt
I’m honestly impressed by the quantity and quality of PhD students at @FBK_research working on #NLProc related topics… we have a very promising new generation of young researchers ready to take the stage #LT2024FBK
