Generating Scientific Claims for Zero-Shot Scientific Fact Checking

1 code implementation ACL 2022 Dustin Wright, David Wadden, Kyle Lo, Bailey Kuehl, Arman Cohan, Isabelle Augenstein, Lucy Lu Wang

To address this challenge, we propose scientific claim generation, the task of generating one or more atomic and verifiable claims from scientific sentences, and demonstrate its usefulness in zero-shot fact checking for biomedical claims.

Fact Checking Negation

Literature-Augmented Clinical Outcome Prediction

1 code implementation Findings (NAACL) 2022 Aakanksha Naik, Sravanthi Parasa, Sergey Feldman, Lucy Lu Wang, Tom Hope

We present BEEP (Biomedical Evidence-Enhanced Predictions), a novel approach for clinical outcome prediction that retrieves patient-specific medical literature and incorporates it into predictive models.

SciFact-Open: Towards open-domain scientific claim verification

1 code implementation25 Oct 2022 David Wadden, Kyle Lo, Bailey Kuehl, Arman Cohan, Iz Beltagy, Lucy Lu Wang, Hannaneh Hajishirzi

While research on scientific claim verification has led to the development of powerful systems that appear to approach human performance, these approaches have yet to be tested in a realistic setting against large corpora of scientific literature.

Paper Plain: Making Medical Research Papers Approachable to Healthcare Consumers with Natural Language Processing

1 code implementation28 Feb 2022 Tal August, Lucy Lu Wang, Jonathan Bragg, Marti A. Hearst, Andrew Head, Kyle Lo

When seeking information not covered in patient-friendly documents, like medical pamphlets, healthcare consumers may turn to the research literature.

SUPP.AI: Finding Evidence for Supplement-Drug Interactions

1 code implementation ACL 2020 Lucy Lu Wang, Oyvind Tafjord, Arman Cohan, Sarthak Jain, Sam Skjonsberg, Carissa Schoenick, Nick Botner, Waleed Ammar

We fine-tune the contextualized word representations of the RoBERTa language model using labeled DDI data, and apply the fine-tuned model to identify supplement interactions.

Automated Metrics for Medical Multi-Document Summarization Disagree with Human Evaluations

1 code implementation23 May 2023 Lucy Lu Wang, Yulia Otmakhova, Jay DeYoung, Thinh Hung Truong, Bailey E. Kuehl, Erin Bransom, Byron C. Wallace

We analyze how automated summarization evaluation metrics correlate with lexical features of generated summaries, to other automated metrics including several we propose in this work, and to aspects of human-assessed summary quality.

Open Domain Multi-document Summarization: A Comprehensive Study of Model Brittleness under Retrieval

no code implementations20 Dec 2022 John Giorgi, Luca Soldaini, Bo wang, Gary Bader, Kyle Lo, Lucy Lu Wang, Arman Cohan

Via extensive automatic and human evaluation, we determine: (1) state-of-the-art summarizers suffer large reductions in performance when applied to open-domain MDS, (2) additional training in the open-domain setting can reduce this sensitivity to imperfect retrieval, and (3) summarizers are insensitive to the retrieval of duplicate documents and the order of retrieved documents, but highly sensitive to other errors, like the retrieval of irrelevant documents.

APPLS: Evaluating Evaluation Metrics for Plain Language Summarization

1 code implementation23 May 2023 Yue Guo, Tal August, Gondy Leroy, Trevor Cohen, Lucy Lu Wang

In response, we introduce POMME, a new metric designed to assess text simplification in PLS; the metric is calculated as the normalized perplexity difference between an in-domain and out-of-domain language model.
