How and when do multilingual LMs achieve cross-lingual generalization during pre-training? And why do later, supposedly more advanced checkpoints, lose some language identification abilities in the process? Our #ACL2025 paper investigates.

Debates aren’t always black and white—opposing sides often share common ground. These partial agreements are key for meaningful compromises. Presenting “Perspectivized Stance Vectors” (PSVs) — an interpretable method to identify nuanced (dis)agreements 📜 arxiv.org/abs/2502.09644

For example, we find signature perspectives that authors tend to agree, disagree, or be orthogonal on. Many more details, considering e.g., different stakeholder groups are in the paper.

This Thursday at 15:00 UTC I will present at @roosh_circle's Papers Club. Many thanks for inviting me! We cover methods for Text-Attributed Graphs, in particular Graph Language Models. The talk is targeted towards anyone interested, so everyone is welcome to join 🤗 Link in 🧵

How to make powerful LLMs understand graphs and their structure?🕸️ With Graph Language Models! Take a pre-trained LLM and fit it with the ability to process graphs. Watch if you're curious how:👇 📺 youtu.be/JcHeaONGbmQ (Hint: it's about position embeddings, as @MoritzPlenz explained at #ACL2024 🔴)! Work from @HD_NLP .

Our @MoritzPlenz from @HD_NLP in front of numerous visitors of his poster, presenting his new work on Graph Language Models 🕸️🗣️ at #ACL2024NLP. GLMs unify the advantages of LLMs and GNNs on structure-based tasks. Hold on, Moritz, to the end of the session! 😅🤩

8️⃣ (iii) Ablations on WikiData and Wikipedia show that GLMs equally leverage both modalities, successfully fusing the complementary information. More details can be found in our paper. Our code is available and ready to encode your TaGs: github.com/Heidelberg-NLP/Gr…
