I will be presenting two papers at EMNLP 2025 in Suzhou 🇨🇳! If you are interested in low-resource NLP, speech recognition, machine translation, retrieval-augmented generation, feel free to contact me for a quick chat! I will be also on the job market next year.

@Bollegala Hi Danushka, I’m Chihiro from the Uni of Notre Dame, and I’ll also be presenting at EMNLP! I’m on the job market next year and would love to discuss a life between industry and academia. Would you be available for a quick chat during the main conference?

I will be in Suzhou for #EMNLP2025 presenting three research papers with my amazing students. If you are interested in chatting about anything NLP, Search, having a life between Industry vs. Academia (or both) please get in touch. #NLProc

Our paper is accepted to the main conference of EMNLP 2025🎉 This is my first paper as the primary mentor of an intern! I’d like to send huge kudos to @taguchi_c for the amazing work and dedication👏 arxiv.org/abs/2506.08479

I plan to attend the conference in person, so drop me a DM if you will be in Suzhou! #RAG #LLM #machinetranslation #lowresourcelanguages #multilingual #NLP #linguistics (4/4)

📃Languages Still Left Behind: Toward a Better Multilingual Machine Translation Benchmark arxiv.org/abs/2508.20511 This paper reports the systematic issues in FLORES+, the multilingual MT benchmark, in its translation quality and the source sentence selection. (3/4)

Happy to share that two of my first-author papers have been accepted at #EMNLP2025 Main! (1/4)

I completed my 3-month internship at @MegagonLabs last week. Massive thanks to @SAYg_7 and @nikita_bhutani I learned so much, and it was a very productive learning experience. I hope to see the team members again soon! (also hopefully the paper is coming out soon 🚀)

Midwest Speech and Language Days will be held Apr 15-16 at @NotreDame! Abstract submissions are due Mar 20, and registration deadline is Mar 27. Financial assistance for students (lodging, poster printing) is available. nlp.nd.edu/msld25

Megagon Labs has welcomed @taguchi_c, PhD student at the @NotreDame, to our office for his winter internship. 🎉 He is conducting research on Retrieval-augmented generation (#RAG) and long-context language models (#LCLMs), mentored by @SAYg_7 and @Nikita_Bhutani #AI #LLMs #NLProc

Web ツールも公開しています： softmatcha.github.io ノートルダムの田口さんに参加いただいたことにより、英語・日本語に次いで、ラテン語（？！）でも検索できるようになりました。西洋古典にご興味のあるみなさん、ぜひ遊んでみてください。 📑はこちら： openreview.net/forum?id=Q6PAn…

バカでかコーパスを超高速に検索できる柔らかい grep/KWIC を作る話が #ICLR2025 に採択されました。 NLP + 理論計算機科学 + 言語学 のプレイヤーの合作です。 異なる分野のプロが集まる魅力をひしひし感じましたし、信じられないスピード感での議論・アルゴリズム改善・論文生成が超愉しかったです。

Our paper has been accepted at #ICLR2025🎉 SoftMatcha finds query patterns that match not only exactly, e.g., grep, but also semantically similar ones levearaging word embeddings. Moreover, our soft yet efficient matcher can search billion-word corpora in 0.1 sec on CPUs🚀

Congratulations to @taguchi_c for winning a @lucy_institute Societal Impact Award for his work on creating language technologies for the Kichwa language community in Ecuador! @ND_CSE youtube.com/watch?v=HjsNOE…
