Come check out our poster on anthropomorphism in dialogue systems @emnlpmeeting on the 9th at 11.00! @gavin_does_nlp @CurriedAmanda @ZeerakTalat @verena_rieser Also thank you to the reviewers and @emilymbender for their insightful feedback! Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2305.09800…

7) Re-examining Sexism and Misogyny Classification with Annotator Attitudes (EMNLP 2024 findings) @AggieJiang @NikVits @t_dinkar @gavin_does_nlp @sinantie

Consistency is Key: Disentangling Label Variation in Natural Language Processing with Intra-Annotator Agreement arxiv.org/abs/2301.10684 @gavin_does_nlp, @t_dinkar, @CurriedAmanda, @verena_rieser and @dirk_hovy (6/6)

Thrilled that our work is mentioned! We found that annotators struggled to understand what was meant by 'fluency', and in turn it affected the reproducibility of the annotations. @gavin_does_nlp @verena_rieser

Well done Sachin for publishing a paper based on his masters thesis in #HumEval2024 👏👏. The work tried to reproduce annotations in code-mixed Malayalam-English data! @heysachins @gavin_does_nlp @LrecColing

We go back to December (all the time) with @t_dinkar @gavin_does_nlp @ZeerakTalat and @verena_rieser (extra points for the @taylorswift13 reference)

Now we have our first ReproNLP2024 paired presentation, @t_dinkar and Javier González Corbelle presenting their reproduction studies of aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long. #HumEval2024.

Excited for this year’s speakers! If you are attending LREC-COLING in a couple of weeks, join our workshop!

In the last year our PhD students @iLab_hwu achieved: finalists in Amazon Alexa Simbot challenge; Best Demo paper at EACL; papers at NAACL, HRI, NeurIPS, EMNLP, SIGDIAL, Interspeech … full list at sites.google.com/site/hwinterac…

At this week’s reading group, Eimear facilitated a discussion on the anthropomorphism of dialogue systems and other NLP tools, based on the paper "Mirages. On Anthropomorphism in Dialogue Systems." by @gavin_does_nlp @curriedamanda @t_dinkar @verena_rieser @ZeerakTalat

I have also been fortunate to count many women among my collaborators after my PhD: @albacurry @florplaza22 @t_dinkar @debora_nozza @donyarooein and my dear friend and co-host @orianajanem

Many cultures don't follow the Anglo-Saxon standard of single last names (e.g. John Smith) and at the moment the @aclanthology has issues assigning papers to people with two last names, leading some of us to have several profiles with our work scattered throughout them. 1/5

The CFP for the Third Workshop on Safety for Conversational AI @LRECCOLING is out. Please consider submitting to this workshop and join us in lovely Torino! @CurriedAmanda @peppeatta @sinantie @verena_rieser @dirk_hovy Full details here: sites.google.com/view/safety-co…
