Reconsidering Sentence-Level Sign Language Translation

no code implementations16 Jun 2024 Garrett Tanzer, Maximus Shengelia, Ken Harrenstien, David Uthus

Then as a case study, we perform the first human baseline for sign language translation that actually substitutes a human into the machine learning task framing, rather than provide the human with the entire document as context.

Memory Augmented Language Models through Mixture of Word Experts

no code implementations15 Nov 2023 Cicero Nogueira dos santos, James Lee-Thorp, Isaac Noble, Chung-Ching Chang, David Uthus

We demonstrate that MoWE performs significantly better than the T5 family of models with similar number of FLOPs in a variety of NLP tasks.

mLongT5: A Multilingual and Efficient Text-To-Text Transformer for Longer Sequences

1 code implementation18 May 2023 David Uthus, Santiago Ontañón, Joshua Ainslie, Mandy Guo

We present our work on developing a multilingual, efficient text-to-text transformer that is suitable for handling long inputs.

CoLT5: Faster Long-Range Transformers with Conditional Computation

no code implementations17 Mar 2023 Joshua Ainslie, Tao Lei, Michiel de Jong, Santiago Ontañón, Siddhartha Brahma, Yury Zemlyanskiy, David Uthus, Mandy Guo, James Lee-Thorp, Yi Tay, Yun-Hsuan Sung, Sumit Sanghai

Many natural language processing tasks benefit from long inputs, but processing long documents with Transformers is expensive -- not only due to quadratic attention complexity but also from applying feedforward and projection layers to every token.

RISE: Leveraging Retrieval Techniques for Summarization Evaluation

no code implementations17 Dec 2022 David Uthus, Jianmo Ni

RISE is first trained as a retrieval task using a dual-encoder retrieval setup, and can then be subsequently utilized for evaluating a generated summary given an input document, without gold reference summaries.

Augmenting Poetry Composition with Verse by Verse

no code implementations NAACL (ACL) 2022 David Uthus, Maria Voitovich, R. J. Mical

We describe Verse by Verse, our experiment in augmenting the creative process of writing poetry with an AI.

Investigating Societal Biases in a Poetry Composition System

1 code implementation GeBNLP (COLING) 2020 Emily Sheng, David Uthus

There is a growing collection of work analyzing and mitigating societal biases in language understanding, generation, and retrieval tasks, though examining biases in creative tasks remains underexplored.

TextSETTR: Few-Shot Text Style Extraction and Tunable Targeted Restyling

1 code implementation ACL 2021 Parker Riley, Noah Constant, Mandy Guo, Girish Kumar, David Uthus, Zarana Parekh

Unlike previous approaches requiring style-labeled training data, our method makes use of readily-available unlabeled text by relying on the implicit connection in style between adjacent sentences, and uses labeled data only at inference time.
