This is ridiculous and infuriating, *especially now*. The "tech workers of conscience" supporting this cause have no idea how critical @Israel is in keeping the middle east region from falling apart. Please take a look @ajassy @amazon @sundarpichai @Google

Web search is changing. At #EMNLP 2021, Ido Dagan gave a keynote about work at @biunlp on multi-text consumption, including "interactive summarization". His slides resemble those in today's presentation by @yusuf_i_mehdi on the new search experience on @bing. Ido said it first😎

When computing ROUGE score for a single example with multiple predictions (p) and multiple references (r), which of these is more standard to report?

What is Linguistic Synchrony? How can it be measured? And what is it good for? #NAACL2022 @CLPsychOrg Measuring Linguistic Synchrony in Psychotherapy Natalie Shapira (@NatalieShapira), Dana Atzil-Slonim (@AtzilDana), Rivka Tuval Mashiach, Ori Shapira (@obspp18)

@AlvinGrissomII True. That's why we need to first formalize such tasks with evaluation frameworks in a way that the NLP community will understand them (in "NLP words"). Once a task becomes approachable, it will more easily take off. That's exactly what Ido Dagan was advocating in his keynote.

@yanaiela I remember the sense of power when I finally grasped recall/precision, and then feeling I had superpowers when I could use TP/FP/TN/FN freely in speech. I think the latter was reinforced, less through my research, but rather by Covid testing talk a year back :)

Yanai, 4th year PhD student in NLP. Today I finally internalized what each of the true/false positive/negative combination mean.

@yanaiela זה כאילו נראה מצחיק, אבל בקונטקסט יש כאן הגיון כי זה בטח מקום, כמו משרד, שאנשים דופקים או מצלצלים ורוצים למנוע את הפעולה. זה מראה את חשיבות הסביבה וידע העולם. זה אומר בצורה אימפליציטית "...ואל תצלצל/י בפעמון". זה נשמע כמו מה שאתה עושה במחקר שלך :)

@ani_nenkova The context of this tweet confused me, because "ganon" in Hebrew means nursery school :)

@AlexTamkin As you point out, there are many aspects that have advantages/disadvantages with respect to where one is in the PhD (e.g. at the beginning needing more/less of something, and later on the opposite). Fortunately, I have an advisor that dynamically evolved for my needs.

A quick thread for PhD admits thinking about potential advisors: I see a lot of discussion about "hands-on" vs "hands-off" advisors But I think there are at least 3 underlying dimensions here, each of which is worth considering in its own right: 👇 [THREAD] 1/

I feared starting a new position during the pandemic but find it energizing and a great antidote against covid fatigue. This month I joined Adobe research as the head of lab/Maryland. I look forward to working with the fantastic team, Adobe colleagues and our academic partners.

@RTomMcCoy If we knew how to measure actual NLU, let alone automatically, it seems to me like we would also know how to make much better NLP models.

Summarization is ROUGE, MT is BLEU. Can automatic metrics Ever measure NLU?

אני מחפש מישהי שאוהבת אתגרי ux וטובה בזה, שיצא לה לעבוד/לחשוב בעבר על רכיבי קלט מורכבים, לעבודה לא שגרתית. בקצרה יש לנו שפת שאילתא מורכבת, ואנחנו צריכים לבנות ממשק שיחשוף אותה למשתמשים באופן אינטואיטיבי. צריך לאפיין query builder, אבל אני לא מכיר רכיבים סטנדרטיים להשען עליהם.

@NatalieShapira יש לילדים שלנו נטייה לשאול שאלה בפורמט של השלמה, לדוגמא: "צריך לנסוע כי", ולצפות לתשובה. אני אומר להם, "אל תעשה לי language model, תשאל אותי שאלה!". אני מרגיש שזה מגיע מתוך עצלות מנטאלית וזה מפריע לי. יכולת ניסוח שאלה זה כלי חשוב.

@assoulix @yoavgo I like the test-of-time award that we have in NLP.

English

J@assoulix·2 Tem

@yoavgo In our fields like whisky or wine best paper have to endure the maturation period. Best paper award should be done on last year or 2 years then who would have some metric of impact with co citation for example.Moreover those that were'nt reproducible should be banned a posterior

English

(((ل()(ل() 'yoav))))👾@yoavgo·2 Tem

even less popular opinion: "best paper" awards should be abolished as well. (yes i know it helps their recipients win jobs against candidates from other fields who have such awards. but it's like, 2-3 people per year? so random)

Djamé..@zehavoc

unpopular opinion: I hate the "outstanding" reviewer awards (even though I got it once for no particular reasons afaict). It's like a giant "meh" thrown to the face of the less outstanding reviewers who threw idk how many hours reviewing papers.
