Towards Better Evaluation of Instruction-Following: A Case-Study in Summarization

no code implementations12 Oct 2023 Ondrej Skopek, Rahul Aralikatte, Sian Gooding, Victor Carbune

Despite recent advances, evaluating how well large language models (LLMs) follow user instructions remains an open problem.

One Size Does Not Fit All: The Case for Personalised Word Complexity Models

no code implementations Findings (NAACL) 2022 Sian Gooding, Manuel Tragut

We use a novel active learning framework that allows models to be tailored to individuals and release a dataset of complexity annotations and models as a benchmark for further research.

On the Ethical Considerations of Text Simplification

no code implementations SLPAT (ACL) 2022 Sian Gooding

This paper outlines the ethical implications of text simplification within the framework of assistive systems.

Word Complexity is in the Eye of the Beholder

no code implementations NAACL 2021 Sian Gooding, Ekaterina Kochmar, Seid Muhie Yimam, Chris Biemann

Lexical complexity is a highly subjective notion, yet this factor is often neglected in lexical simplification and readability systems which use a {''}one-size-fits-all{''} approach.

Predicting Text Readability from Scrolling Interactions

1 code implementation CoNLL (EMNLP) 2021 Sian Gooding, Yevgeni Berzak, Tony Mak, Matt Sharifi

Judging the readability of text has many important applications, for instance when performing text simplification or when sourcing reading material for language learners.

Detecting Multiword Expression Type Helps Lexical Complexity Assessment

1 code implementation LREC 2020 Ekaterina Kochmar, Sian Gooding, Matthew Shardlow

In this work, we re-annotate the Complex Word Identification Shared Task 2018 dataset of Yimam et al. (2017), which provides complexity scores for a range of lexemes, with the types of MWEs.

Recursive Context-Aware Lexical Simplification

no code implementations IJCNLP 2019 Sian Gooding, Ekaterina Kochmar

This paper presents a novel architecture for recursive context-aware lexical simplification, REC-LS, that is capable of (1) making use of the wider context when detecting the words in need of simplification and suggesting alternatives, and (2) taking previous simplification steps into account.

Complex Word Identification as a Sequence Labelling Task

1 code implementation ACL 2019 Sian Gooding, Ekaterina Kochmar

Complex Word Identification (CWI) is concerned with detection of words in need of simplification and is a crucial first step in a simplification pipeline.
