Formulating Neural Sentence Ordering as the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problem

1 code implementation INLG (ACL) 2021 Vishal Keswani, Harsh Jhamtani

However, such an approach has major limitations – it cannot handle the presence of cycles in the resulting graphs and considers only the binary presence/absence of edges rather than a more granular score.

Truth-Conditional Captions for Time Series Data

1 code implementation EMNLP 2021 Harsh Jhamtani, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick

In this paper, we explore the task of automatically generating natural language descriptions of salient patterns in a time series, such as stock prices of a company over a week.

Interpreting User Requests in the Context of Natural Language Standing Instructions

1 code implementation16 Nov 2023 Nikita Moghe, Patrick Xia, Jacob Andreas, Jason Eisner, Benjamin Van Durme, Harsh Jhamtani

Users of natural language interfaces, generally powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), often must repeat their preferences each time they make a similar request.

Natural Language Decomposition and Interpretation of Complex Utterances

no code implementations15 May 2023 Harsh Jhamtani, Hao Fang, Patrick Xia, Eran Levy, Jacob Andreas, Ben Van Durme

Designing natural language interfaces has historically required collecting supervised data to translate user requests into carefully designed intent representations.

Target-Guided Dialogue Response Generation Using Commonsense and Data Augmentation

no code implementations Findings (NAACL) 2022 Prakhar Gupta, Harsh Jhamtani, Jeffrey P. Bigham

Target-guided response generation enables dialogue systems to smoothly transition a conversation from a dialogue context toward a target sentence.

Achieving Conversational Goals with Unsupervised Post-hoc Knowledge Injection

1 code implementation ACL 2022 Bodhisattwa Prasad Majumder, Harsh Jhamtani, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick, Julian McAuley

In this paper, we propose a post-hoc knowledge-injection technique where we first retrieve a diverse set of relevant knowledge snippets conditioned on both the dialog history and an initial response from an existing dialog model.

Truth-Conditional Captioning of Time Series Data

1 code implementation5 Oct 2021 Harsh Jhamtani, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick

In this paper, we explore the task of automatically generating natural language descriptions of salient patterns in a time series, such as stock prices of a company over a week.

Unsupervised Enrichment of Persona-grounded Dialog with Background Stories

1 code implementation ACL 2021 Bodhisattwa Prasad Majumder, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick, Julian McAuley, Harsh Jhamtani

Humans often refer to personal narratives, life experiences, and events to make a conversation more engaging and rich.

Like hiking? You probably enjoy nature: Persona-grounded Dialog with Commonsense Expansions

1 code implementation EMNLP 2020 Bodhisattwa Prasad Majumder, Harsh Jhamtani, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick, Julian McAuley

Existing persona-grounded dialog models often fail to capture simple implications of given persona descriptions, something which humans are able to do seamlessly.

Learning Rhyming Constraints using Structured Adversaries

1 code implementation IJCNLP 2019 Harsh Jhamtani, Sanket Vaibhav Mehta, Jaime Carbonell, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick

Existing recurrent neural language models often fail to capture higher-level structure present in text: for example, rhyming patterns present in poetry.

A Sociolinguistic Study of Online Echo Chambers on Twitter

no code implementations WS 2019 Nikita Duseja, Harsh Jhamtani

Online social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter are increasingly facing criticism for polarization of users.

Learning to Describe Differences Between Pairs of Similar Images

1 code implementation EMNLP 2018 Harsh Jhamtani, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick

We propose a model that captures visual salience by using a latent variable to align clusters of differing pixels with output sentences.

SPINE: SParse Interpretable Neural Embeddings

2 code implementations23 Nov 2017 Anant Subramanian, Danish Pruthi, Harsh Jhamtani, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick, Eduard Hovy

We propose a novel variant of denoising k-sparse autoencoders that generates highly efficient and interpretable distributed word representations (word embeddings), beginning with existing word representations from state-of-the-art methods like GloVe and word2vec.

Generating Appealing Brand Names

no code implementations28 Jun 2017 Gaurush Hiranandani, Pranav Maneriker, Harsh Jhamtani

Providing appealing brand names to newly launched products, newly formed companies or for renaming existing companies is highly important as it can play a crucial role in deciding its success or failure.
