Check out Natural Instructions v2, a benchmark with 1600 #NLProc tasks and their natural language instructions. Excited to be part of this effort!
20 Apr 2022
Is it possible to solve NLP tasks by simply following instructions that define the tasks? How can we measure the progress?
Excited to announce Natural Instructions v2, a collection of 1600 diverse language tasks and their expert-written instructions!

Our WALNUT benchmark for semi-weakly supervised learning is coming out very soon! #NAACL2022 #NLProc
8 Apr 2022
Our paper entitled "WALNUT: A Benchmark on Semi-weakly Supervised Learning for Natural Language Understanding" got accepted in #NAACL2022. Joint with @zzzzgq @gkaraml and @AhmedHAwadallah, from Microsoft Research and Columbia. Stay tuned!

Are you #PhDone (or close)? Would you like to live in the Washington, DC area and be part of the *exciting* @GMUCompSci dept, working on Machine Translation and #nlproc for low-resource languages? I'm looking for a postdoc (ideally starting in 2022) -- do reach out if interested!

I recently did a Q&A with @ColumbiaCompSci talking about my research experience and projects in #ML and #NLP: cs.columbia.edu/2021/voices-…
Extra: you will also find a photo advertisement of my hometown in Greece :-)

ASTRA: Self-training with Weak Supervision by @gkaraml,@subho_mpi et al.
Combines rules, unlabeled data and limited labeled with self-supervision. Great results for text classification.

Our weak supervision method, ASTRA, leverages domain-specific rules, unlabeled data, and few labeled data through self-training.
If you are attending #NAACL2021 today, join our paper's presentation and Q&A at Session 3B. Happy to chat :)

Excited about our new paper on estimating the causal effects of linguistic properties! E.g., does writing an email politely cause faster responses? To be presented at #NAACL2021 (arxiv.org/pdf/2010.12919.pdf)

A Survey on Recent Approaches for Natural Language Processing in Low-Resource Scenarios
This survey is a great starting point for learning about low-resource NLP, common methods, and open challenges.

Happy to share our #emnlp2020 Findings paper (with @djhsu and Luis Gravano) on “Cross-lingual text classification with minimal resources by transferring a sparse teacher”: aclweb.org/anthology/2020.fi….
tldr; we transfer weak supervision across 18 languages with limited resources.

initial attempts: very impressive QA results (check out the coref in the gates questions!) but also has some glitches.

Today, I will be hosting two Q/A sessions at #acl2020nlp on TXtract (aclweb.org/anthology/2020.ac…), a neural net that scales extraction to Amazon's taxonomy with ~10k product categories.
TXtract is now part of Amazon's product knowledge graph!(see #kdd2020: arxiv.org/pdf/2006.13473.pdf)

New blog post on reviewing policies!
2020.emnlp.org/blog/2020-05-…
Special focus on spurious reviews: this time no paper should be rejected primarily for not beating SOTA, for non-English work, for being a resource paper, etc. /1
