Attention #NLProc researchers, the EACL 2027 website is officially LIVE: 2027.eacl.org/! ๐
๐ฌ๐ท Join us in Athens, Greece (Mar 9-13, 2027) at #EACL2027
๐
ARR submission deadline: Aug 6, 2026. Open to all areas of CL/NLP + related fields. Stay tuned for the detailed CfP!
๐จ New Paper(s) Alert ๐จ
Iโm excited to share papers Iโve recently published, exploring a different application of LLMs:
mdpi.com/2673-2688/7/2/73
arxiv.org/abs/2603.12710
mdpi.com/2079-8954/14/2/123
dl.acm.org/doi/full/10.1145/โฆ
(Sorry for the paper drop โ Iโve been offline for a while.)
โข Adaptive surveys + LLMs for measuring extreme psychological constructs
โข Planning-based view + evaluation of LLM web agents
โข BET: detecting behavioral & emotional themes in narratives
โข Lilo: multi-agent system for childrenโs digital communication

[1/7] Why do frontier LLMs make factual errors?
Is it because they never learned the factโฆ
or because they canโt access knowledge they already encoded?
In our new paper, we show:
The bottleneck is not encoding; it is recall. ๐งต๐

A strange trend I've noticed at #ACL2025 is that people are hesitant to reach out to papers/"academic products" authors.
This is unfortunate for both parties! A simple email can save a lot of time to the sender, but is also one of my favorite kind of email as the receiver!
Tomorrow morning (9AM๐
) I'll be giving a keynote talk at LAW (linguistic annotation workshop) at #ACL2025 on annotations in the era of LLMs - see you there!!๐๐

The Alternative Annotator Test (alt-test) is a new statistical procedure proposed in our ACL 2025 paper! ๐ฆ๐น๐ฆ๐น @DrorRotem @roireichart
The goal? To help justify using LLMs over humans. If the LLM passes the test, its annotations can be trusted ๐

Everyone uses LLMs to annotate data or evaluate models in their research.
But how can we convince others (readers, collaborators, reviewers!!!) that LLMs are reliable? ๐ค
Hereโs a simple (and low-effort) solution: show the LLM is a *comparable alternative annotator* โ

Preferences drive modern LLM research and development: from model alignment to evaluation.
But how well do we understand them?
Excited to share our new preprint:
Multi-domain Explainability of Preferences

Do you think LLMs could win a Nobel Prize one day? ๐ค
