Introducing... the Subspace Chronicles (ft. @robvanderg, @barbara_plank, @iatitov)—a riveting tale of linguistic information emerging, shifting and disentangling across LM training! Coming to an #EMNLP2023 near you! 📜⏳ 📑personads.me/x/emnlp-2023-pa… 📽personads.me/x/emnlp-2023-vi…
Subspace Chronicles via probes θ across LM training time, as measured by F1, codelength L, and subspace angles across tasks and time.

By treating probes as characterisations of task subspaces in an LM, we can further quantify linguistic relatedness via how much information is shared across tasks, over time.

Hi! I'm Max (@mxmeij), a 3rd-year PhD looking into representation learning for quantifying linguistic variation, together with @barbara_plank and @robvanderg. #IntroFriday #NLProc 🧵 [1/5] xitter.cf/NLPnorth/status/158091…
NLPnorth@NLPnorth14 Oct 2022
Hi all! We'd like to try something new, by introducing our PhD students here every Friday. Stay tuned in coming weeks to get to know the members of NLPnorth and their recent work! 🧭🚀 #IntroductionFriday #NLProc

Great job @jsbaan! Very clear appeal for why you should take human disagreement into account when calibrating your models 🎲 #EMNLP2022 📑 arxiv.org/abs/2210.16133
yikes, these labels are dangerously miscalibrated! that’s why you gotta take human label variation into account!

Definitely! Had a blast discussing integrals and playing with magnets 🧲 Thanks, #EMNLP2022 ✨

What a poster session: Thank you all for stopping by! If you missed it and want to know the secret on how to choose the best LM for your task without fine-tuning, find us (@mxmeij @mjjzha @barbara_plank) around the conference in the next days 😁👋 #EMNLP2022

For #EMNLP2022, we (w/ @robvanderg, @barbara_plank) look through differentiale, rainbow-colored glasses to find linguistic timescale profiles for 7 #NLProc tasks across 6 languages 🌈 📑 personads.me/x/emnlp-2022-pa… 📽️ personads.me/x/emnlp-2022-vi… 💬 10th Dec 9:00 at Poster Session 7 & 8

The resulting spectral profiles are visually and linguistically intuitive across 7 diverse tasks, e.g. PoS -> short, Syntax -> medium, Sentiment -> long waves🌊

Task frequency profiles further show that task-relevant information is represented highly consistently, even across typologically distinct languages🔀

Immensely enjoyed this collab with my favourite office roomies🌟

Ever wanted to compare performance of several encoders *before* fine-tuning on your task? 🔮 “Evidence > Intuition: Transferability Estimation for Encoder Selection” has been accepted at #EMNLP2022! This was a cool collab with @EliBassignana @mxmeij @barbara_plank 🚀 🧵 (1/6)

If you are at #NAACL2022 I hope you get a chance to meet & check out the works by Max @mxmeij, Mike @mjjzha and Rob @robvanderg on choosing a LM encoder for parsing via probing, IE for computational job markets and MTL for SemEval tasks @NLPnorth @CisLmu #NLProc - times & loc 👇
