Dear colleague,
We are happy to announce the next webinar in the Language Technology
webinar series organized by the HiTZ research center (Basque Center for
Language Technology, http://hitz.eus). We are organizing one seminar
every month. You can check the videos of previous webinars and the
schedule for upcoming webinars here: http://www.hitz.eus/webinars Next
webinar:
* *Speaker*: Xiang Ren (University of Southern California - USC)
* *Title*: Commonsense Reasoning in the Wild
* *Date*: October 6, 2022, 17:00 CET
* *Summary*: Current NLP systems impress us by achieving
close-to-human performance on benchmarks of answering commonsense
questions or writing interesting stories. However, most of the
progress is evaluated using static, closed-ended datasets created
for individual tasks. To deploy commonsense reasoning services in
the wild, we look to develop and evaluate systems that can generate
answers in an open-ended way, perform robust logical reasoning, and
generalize across diverse task formats, domains, and datasets. In
this talk I will share our effort on introducing new formulations of
commonsense reasoning challenges and novel evaluation protocols,
towards broadening the scope in approaching machine common sense. We
hope that such a shift of evaluation paradigm would encourage more
research on externalizing the model reasoning process and improving
model robustness and cross-task generalization.
* *Upcoming webinars*:
o Incorporating Commonsense Reasoning into NLP Models -- Vered
Shwartz (November 3, 2022)
o Title to be announced -- Maarit Koponen (December 1, 2022)
