SeaEval for Multilingual Foundation Models: From Cross-Lingual Alignment to Cultural Reasoning
We present SeaEval, a benchmark for multilingual foundation models.
Guiding Computational Stance Detection with Expanded Stance Triangle Framework
Stance detection determines whether the author of a piece of text is in favor of, against, or neutral towards a specified target, and can be used to gain valuable insights into social media.
Multi-source adversarial transfer learning for ultrasound image segmentation with limited similarity
Transfer learning provides the possibility to solve this problem, but there are too many features in natural images that are not related to the target domain.
Exploring Self-supervised Logic-enhanced Training for Large Language Models
Existing efforts to improve logical reasoning ability of language models have predominantly relied on supervised fine-tuning, hindering generalization to new domains and/or tasks.
Domain-specific Language Pre-training for Dialogue Comprehension on Clinical Inquiry-Answering Conversations
There is growing interest in the automated extraction of relevant information from clinical dialogues.
Learning from Bootstrapping and Stepwise Reinforcement Reward: A Semi-Supervised Framework for Text Style Transfer
To take advantage of both supervised and unsupervised paradigms and tackle the challenges, in this work, we propose a semi-supervised framework for text style transfer.
Improving Multi-Party Dialogue Discourse Parsing via Domain Integration
While multi-party conversations are often less structured than monologues and documents, they are implicitly organized by semantic level correlations across the interactive turns, and dialogue discourse analysis can be applied to predict the dependency structure and relations between the elementary discourse units, and provide feature-rich structural information for downstream tasks.

DMRST: A Joint Framework for Document-Level Multilingual RST Discourse Segmentation and Parsing
While previous work significantly improves the performance of RST discourse parsing, they are not readily applicable to practical use cases: (1) EDU segmentation is not integrated into most existing tree parsing frameworks, thus it is not straightforward to apply such models on newly-coming data.
Controllable Neural Dialogue Summarization with Personal Named Entity Planning
The conditional sequences are modulated to decide what types of information or what perspective to focus on when forming summaries to tackle the under-constrained problem in summarization tasks.
Dynamic Sliding Window for Meeting Summarization
In this work, we first analyze the linguistic characteristics of meeting transcripts on a representative corpus, and find that the sentences comprising the summary correlate with the meeting agenda.
Coreference-Aware Dialogue Summarization
Summarizing conversations via neural approaches has been gaining research traction lately, yet it is still challenging to obtain practical solutions.
N-Shot Learning for Augmenting Task-Oriented Dialogue State Tracking
Augmentation of task-oriented dialogues has followed standard methods used for plain-text such as back-translation, word-level manipulation, and paraphrasing despite its richly annotated structure.
An End-to-End Document-Level Neural Discourse Parser Exploiting Multi-Granularity Representations
Document-level discourse parsing, in accordance with the Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST), remains notoriously challenging.
Multilingual Neural RST Discourse Parsing
Text discourse parsing plays an important role in understanding information flow and argumentative structure in natural language.
Uncertainty Modeling for Machine Comprehension Systems using Efficient Bayesian Neural Networks
While neural approaches have achieved significant improvement in machine comprehension tasks, models often work as a black-box, resulting in lower interpretability, which requires special attention in domains such as healthcare or education.
Conditional Neural Generation using Sub-Aspect Functions for Extractive News Summarization
In this paper, we propose a neural framework that can flexibly control summary generation by introducing a set of sub-aspect functions (i. e. importance, diversity, position).
Retinal Vessel Segmentation based on Fully Convolutional Networks
The morphological attributes of retinal vessels, such as length, width, tortuosity and branching pattern and angles, play an important role in diagnosis, screening, treatment, and evaluation of various cardiovascular and ophthalmologic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and arteriosclerosis.
