Yes! Totally! Absolutely!

Happy to share our #ACL2022 paper "Non-neural Models Matter: a Re-evaluation of Neural Referring Expression Generation Systems", joint work with Guanyi Chen (@_a_quei ) and Kees van Deemter. 😃
Here's the link to the paper:

Briefly, we did a systematic evaluation of different approaches (rule-based, ML feature-based, and E2E), using the task of generating referring expressions in context as an example.
We examined 2 different datasets (WEBNLG & WSJ) and performed both automatic & human evaluations.
Fantastic work!
Congrats Mark Ellison @tmarke (and others) 😃

Gesture communicates better than vocalisation cross-culturally (Australia, Vanuatu) & cross-modally (blind, sighted). Gesture’s success due to its greater #universality @UniKoeln @CoEDLang @UWApsych
