[1/]💡New Paper
Large reasoning models (LRMs) are strong in English — but how well do they reason in your language?
Our latest work uncovers their limitation and a clear trade-off:
Controlling Thinking Trace Language Comes at the Cost of Accuracy

✨ New Paper ✨
[1/] Retrieving passages from many languages can boost retrieval augmented generation (RAG) performance, but how good are LLMs at dealing with multilingual contexts in the prompt?
📄 Check it out: arxiv.org/abs/2504.00597

Modern LLMs "speak" hundreds of languages... but do they really?
Multilinguality claims are often based on downstream tasks like QA & MT, while *formal* linguistic competence remains hard to gauge in lots of languages...

📣 Soon-to-open PhD position @GroNlp:
Come work with Annemarie van Dooren, @Yevgen_M and myself on a new project bridging Computational Linguistics methods and Language Acquisition questions, with a focus on the learning of modal verbs.

Fruit of a collaboration started just a few months ago, our investigation of how child-directed Variation Sets help learning in LMs has received a @babyLMchallenge award #CoNLL2024 #EMNLP2024 !! 🎉❤️
W/ amazing co-authors @_akari000 @Rodamille @akiyohukat_u and Yohei Oseki
👶I am happy to announce that our paper "BabyLM Challenge: Exploring the Effect of Variation Sets on Language Model Training Efficiency" received the ✨Outstanding Paper Award✨ at @babyLMchallenge !!

🌴We had a great time at #EMNLP2024 presenting our works, meeting old friends, getting to know new people, and winning some prizes (Best Social Impact Award at #EMNLP2024 Main and @babyLMchallenge award #CoNLL2024) 🤩
Being at #EMNL2024 🌴? Come to visit our poster “Language is Scary when Over-Analyzed” (Jasmine 14:00-15:30)
We frame misogyny detection as an Argumentative Reasoning task using LLMs. Curious about the results? Come and talk to us @Aramona4
