Research Statement

My research focuses on discourse-oriented semantics using neural methods for advanced NLU tasks, such as reading comprehension, commonsense reasoning or argumentation analysis.

I am especially interested in combining neural machine learning methods with linguistic modeling and knowledge representation, which I believe will make NLP systems more powerful and robust, and deeper in modeling Natural Language Understanding.

The NLP group's work covers many themes in semantics-based NLP, including semantic role labeling, coreference, discourse relation parsing, natural language and commonsense inference as well as phenomena involving implicitness in language and commonsense NLU.

To make automatic Natural Language Understanding succeed, language needs to be situated in real-world contexts. We hence investigate multimodal language processing and how this can help in achieving situated language understanding.

July 24 graduation We celebrate the PhD thesis defense of Letitia Parcalabescu! She successfully defended her thesis on Measuring the Contributions of Vision and Text Modalities in Multimodal Transformers.

Congratulations for this outstanding thesis, Letitia, and best of luck for your ongoing journey!

Jun24 This weekend I attended a celebration to the honour of Hans Kamp,
my doctoral father, award who has been awarded the Rolf Schock Prize 2024 in Logic and Philosophy— jointly with Irene Heim — “for (mutually independent) conception and early development of dynamic semantics for natural language”.
It was a very special honour for me to talk on this occasion, sharing memories of the times I was instructed on his theory first-hands during my studies, then being supervised by him in my PhD studies, and reflecting on the influence that his theory of dynamic semantics has had at the time, and still has in times of neural networks and large language models, by deeply shaping our perspective on semantics in a deep and lasting way. A big thank you to Hans Kamp
-- for shaping our perspective and understanding of semantics, by inventing DRT!

Jun24 Moritz Plenz and Philipp Heinisch presented our work recent work on PACT in the 1st Int. Conference on Robust Argumentation Machines (RATIO), organized by the SPP RATIO in Bielefeld, with:
  • Great invited speakers: Elena Cabrio, Yufang Hou and Henning Wachsmuth
  • A panel discussion on
    • how LLMs will impact our work and perspectives on the research on Compuational Argumentation
    • what are fundamental assumptions in research on Computational Argumentation that need to be revisited
    • what are the societal implications of argumentation technology in our rapidly changing society.
    I was amazed by the well-posited thoughts and contributions from our panelists and also from the audience!

Jun24 Two long papers accepted for ACL 2024 main conference in Bangkok:
Letitia Parcalabescu and Anette Frank: On Measuring Faithfulness or Self-consistency of Natural Language Explanations, and
Moritz Plenz and Anette Frank: Graph Language Models. Congratulations to both!

Jun24 ACCEPT will present our most recent work in the 1st International Conference on Recent Advances in Robust Argumentation Machines RATIO-24: PAKT: Perspectivized Argumentation Knowledge Graph and Tool for Deliberation Analysis. Looking forward to a lively conference!

May24 In a collaboration across the Universities of Koç, Hacettepe, Heidelberg & Pisa, Amsterdam, Utrecht & Malta we established VILMA, a new benchmark that measures how well video-language models can process spatio-temporal events: VILMA: A Zero-Shot Benchmark for Linguistic and Temporal Grounding in Video-Language Models was presented at ICLR 2024. Find here a quick overview.

Apr&May24 Two papers accepted by Xiyan Fu on Compositional Generalization:
Exploring Continual Learning of Compositional Generalization in NLI was accepted for TACL and will be presented at ACL 2024 in Bangkok.
Compositional Structured Explanation Generation with Dynamic Modularized Reasoning will be presented at *SEM 2024 at NAACL. Congratulations, Xiyan!

Mar24 Frederick Riemenschneider and Kevin Krahn won the SIGTYP 2024 constrained Shared Task on Word Embedding Evaluation for Ancient and Historical Languages. award with Heidelberg-Boston @ SIGTYP 2024 Shared Task: Enhancing Low-Resource Language Analysis With Character-Aware Hierarchical Transformers.

2023 ... was a very busy year -- no free time left to report any news. But see the News on our group page for what happened.

Most notably, we celebrated the PhD graduation of Dr. Juri Opitz, graduation who defended his inspiring thesis on rich facets and shades of measuring the similarity of graph-structured meaning representations!
Congratulations, and best of luck at the University of Zurich!

And Frederick Riemenschneider joined our group, who made a strong appearance at ACL 2023 with Exploring Large Language Models for Classical Philology, followed by ALP 2023, where he applied these models to detect allusions in Ancient Greek Literature: Graecia capta ferum victorem cepit.
