If you are at SIGDIAL check out “Divide and Conquer: Rethinking Ambiguous Candidate Identification in Multimodal Dialogues with Pseudo-Labelling” by @hsbhathiya from @iLab_hwu #NLProc #SIGDIAL aclanthology.org/2024.sigdial-1…
What if your multimodal model succeeds when given nonsensical instructions? What if it even succeeds without being told explicitly what to do? Have we finally achieved AGI? We answer at least two of those questions w/ @NikVits @ale_suglia @sinantie (🧵for more)
🚀 Excited to share our latest paper: "Enhancing Continual Learning in Visual Question Answering with Modality-Aware Feature Distillation"! Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2406.19297 (1/5)
Are you using LLMs for evaluating your model? You might want to read our paper where we present JUDGE-BENCH. See the thread below and the associated paper on arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2406.18403 Fantastic collaboration effort with many @ELLISforEurope members!

It has been wonderful collaborating with my friends at @HeriotWattUni 's Interaction Lab (@iLab_hwu). Thanks! In January, I submitted my PhD thesis titled: "Incremental Multi-party Conversational AI for People with Dementia" Luckily, even the sun came out for graduation day ☀️

Thrilled to get this paper out, a great collaboration with @UCL_VoCoLab, @Addlesee_AI and @verena_rieser on how self-bias and sense of agency over a voice is altered when that voice is used to represent oneself in a social interaction.

Thanks to everyone who helped at our @EdSciFest event yesterday 'Two Truths and A Robot Lie', including scifest team, @NRobotarium, @HWEngage, and @AdamSmithHouse. The event was a big success engaging the public with the history of Adam Smith, and the science of #robots and #AI
It was great presenting my recent work on Embodied AI and multimodal language models. Many thanks for the invite @PMinervini and many thanks to everyone that attended both in-person and online!
