Just had an amazing visit to the legendary @aliceoh at KAIST! Blown away by the brilliant students and world-class faculty. It truly is the MIT of Korea! 🌟🎓 #KAIST
had a lot of fun presenting Neuroformer at Caltech this week, thanks for the engaging discussion! 😁

🚨We've been assessing T2I metrics wrong...until now‼️ Our new meta-metric for T2I faithfulness metrics, T2IScoreScore (TS2), checks if a metric correctly orders and separates many images against single prompts! The results may surprise you... t2iscorescore.github.io 1/5
Huge congratulations to @AlbalakAlon for defending his PhD thesis “Understanding and Improving Models Through a Data-Centric Lens”. It’s refreshing to witness Alon’s growth, innovation, and leadership in the last few years. Alon is my 8th PhD graduate and I wish him all the best!
🤩 I'm honored that insights from our data selection survey are being shared across the globe 🌍 Fantastic slides @Thom_Wolf !

Awesome new work with @sharonlevy21 and colleagues. I learned a lot about how to think about bias in LLMs from this study.

@niloofar_mire visits us and SoCal #nlproc peeps and shares her work on privacy considerations for large language models.
I'll be @uclanlp tmw & @ucsbNLP the next day to talk about how the "emergent" capabilities of LLMs create emergent inference-time privacy risks, and how membership inference attacks can be inconclusive in current setups! Hit me up if you wanna chat! tinyurl.com/mia-cnfide
🚀Fire linguists in the LLM era? No! Excited to share LingoLLM, a novel method for processing endangered languages with linguistic resources. LingoLLM improves the translation of many endangered languages from 0 to 10.5 BLEU! It helps other tasks as well! arxiv.org/abs/2402.18025
{UCSB|AI2|UW|Stanford|MIT|UofT|Vector|Contextual AI} present a survey on🔎Data Selection for LLMs🔍 Training data is a closely guarded secret in industry🤫with this work we narrow the knowledge gap, advocating for open, responsible, collaborative progress arxiv.org/abs/2402.16827
[New paper!] Can LLMs truly evaluate their own output? Can self-refine/self-reward improve LLMs? Our study reveals that LLMs exhibit biases towards their output. This self-bias gets amplified during self-refine/self-reward, leading to a negative impact on performance. @ucsbNLP
Thank you for joining us yesterday @yanaiela! We are very excited by the "What's In My Big Data" direction! wimbd.apps.allenai.org
Happy to share our new preprint on understanding how reasoning emerges from language model pre-training: arxiv.org/abs/2402.03268 We hypothesize that language models can aggregate reasoning paths seen in pre-training data to draw new conclusions at inference time.
Congrats to our very own Matthew Ho (@matt_seb_ho) for winning a Computing Research Association Outstanding Undergraduate Research Honorable Mention! cra.org/crn/2024/01/ou…
💻 LMs leveraging generative pretraining learn many diverse skills. 🧠 But what can GPTs trained on brain data learn to do? Introducing Neuroformer. A generative model pretrained on massively multimodal, multitask neuronal data! (ICLR 2024) 🧵
One thing that stood out to me at #NeurIPS2023 was there were a lot more application papers than before. This was not the case with my last neurips (2018). I'd like to encourage this wave by highlighting one such paper. LayoutGPT: Compositional Visual Planning and Generation…
Congratulations to our undergraduate student @matt_seb_ho for being selected for Honorable Mention of the 2024 Computing Research Association's (CRA) Outstanding Undergraduate Researcher Award (URA). 🥳 Matthew is the lead author of WikiWhy.
UCSB at #NeurIPS2023. 🥳🥳🥳

Your support make this a shared honor. #IEEE #SignalProcessing #ICASSP2024
had a lot of fun presenting Neuroformer at Caltech this week, thanks for the engaging discussion! 😁
Been enjoying running the @NeuroTechers Neuro+ML Journal Club with @BTolooshams! We recently had a blast discussing with @mehdiazabou and @anton_iades about large models for neuroscience 🧠 Looking forward to more this quarter!
6/5 Important caveats: - Metrics may be both better-correlated to human preference but worse at ranking - Better VLMs will make VLM/VQA-based metrics more powerful (but even more expensive 🤯) - We haven't investigated GPT4V as a backend yet, will add to leaderboard soon🏆
My Ph.D. advisor is visiting South Korea.
Check out our demo website with interactive leaderboard: t2iscorescore.github.io arXiv link: arxiv.org/abs/2404.04251 Dataset on 🤗: huggingface.co/datasets/saxon… Thanks to coauthors @khosh87 @FatimaJahara1 @yujielu_10 @realadityas @WilliamWangNLP and @fatimafellowshp for support!
Surprisingly, we find that the most sophisticated, VLM/VQA-based metrics such as TIFA, DSG, and LLMScore all struggle to beat simple embedding metrics like CLIPScore on the most difficult Real subset for both metrics. Our rigorous evaluation can be used to guide future work! 4/5
To do this, we adapt Spearman correlation and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic to this graph setting, assessing metric scores against these statistics within each walk for each semantic error graph (SEG). SEGs are made from both real & synthetic images, real & fake errors. 3/5
This project, co-led with my @fatimafellowshp mentees @FatimaJahara1 and @khosh87 rigorously tested a variety of text-to-image faithfulness metrics using our new benchmark and metrics. We tested how well each metric separates and orders images within a "semantic error graph" 2/5
🚨We've been assessing T2I metrics wrong...until now‼️ Our new meta-metric for T2I faithfulness metrics, T2IScoreScore (TS2), checks if a metric correctly orders and separates many images against single prompts! The results may surprise you... t2iscorescore.github.io 1/5
Lise Getoor was also on the committee but obviously I forgot to take the picture before she left. 🫠
Huge congratulations to @AlbalakAlon for defending his PhD thesis “Understanding and Improving Models Through a Data-Centric Lens”. It’s refreshing to witness Alon’s growth, innovation, and leadership in the last few years. Alon is my 8th PhD graduate and I wish him all the best!
Thank you to co-authors @FPSLuozi, @sharonlevy21 and advisors @prof_yz, Chitta Baral, and @WilliamWangNLP Especially @prof_yz and his @ApgAsu for inviting me to give a talk that got this project rolling. Let's keep pushing the envelope in multilinguality & multimodality!
- How blind spots in image-image feature extractors sometimes cause "double negatives" where structural similarities between the two translations are also in the visual domain - Translating model tests is a new and important MT domain ¡Nos vemos en 🇲🇽! arxiv.org/abs/2403.11092
If you're interested in multilinguality or multimodal assessment, please check out the discussion! It covers: - Concept subjectivity as a problem in model knowledge assessment - Challenges of translatability and selecting a "best" translation - Error type vs error severity 7/8
As someone invested in rigorously measuring multimodal model capabilities, I think a paper such as this that takes readers through the process of breaking and improving a benchmark is very valuable. I love that we managed to fit a lengthy discussion section in a short paper! 6/8
This shows that correlations between image- and text-domain improvements under error correction are themselves good proxies for model language capacity These findings allow us to intelligently improve the quality of CoCo-CroLa as a benchmark of model multilinguality! 5/
We then compare text-domain similarity improvement ∆SEM to the image-domain improvement of the generated images ∆Xc, and we find that 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐚 𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 "𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬," correction impact on images is 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭 4/
