Minimum Bayes Risk decoding has recently gained momentum in #NLProc. However, a generic implementation for @huggingface Transformers was missing. Check out our new 𝗺𝗯𝗿 🔥repo, which is designed to work with any model and metric on the Hub: github.com/ZurichNLP/mbr

Check out our paper on segmentation for sign languages! We are one step closer to being able to provide basic NLP tools for sign languages. Great work by Amit and Zifan!

📣 Our paper on "Linguistically Motivated Sign Language Segmentation" is in for #EMNLP23 Findings. Segmentation? Consider it solved! w/ @Jiang_Zifan, @bricksdont, @ebling_sarah, and @yoavgo arxiv.org/abs/2310.13960

It has been shown that MBR decoding significantly outperforms MAP decoding, but its high cost makes it impractical for most applications. Can we harvest the quality gains of MBR at train time w/o sacrificing inference-time efficiency? TLDR: yes! arxiv.org/abs/2309.10966v1

🌟 Just published "SignBank+: Multilingual Sign Language Translation Dataset" (w/ @Jiang_Zifan). Just $500 in dirty dataset cleanup with ChatGPT, leads to a 20-30 BLEU score boost—no changes to the models required. Check out the paper! arxiv.org/abs/2309.11566

Papers are funded by public money, produced on the back of volunteers. How utterly ridiculous indeed for an uninvolved third party to come in and charge a horrendous amount, whithout adding any value.
Awais Khan@awaicekhan19 Jun 2023
Yeah … Our paper got accepted! We conducted years of research, spent countless hours to analyze, interpret, & write the manuscript. Editors & reviewers voluntarily spent their time ensuring its quality. Now, we need to pay $4,430 so that you can read it. Isn't that ridiculous?
