Super excited to be presenting our paper "Crowd-Calibrator: Can Annotator Disagreement Inform Calibration in Subjective Tasks?" at #COLM24 during the first poster session on Monday! ✨

If you are at COLM, I hope to see you at our poster!

Should WOAH start a mentorship programme? 🤔
As the workshop grows, reviewer expectations are rising.
We don’t want contributors from adjacent communities penalised by *CL norms.
Senior PhDs and beyond could be mentors.

I will be presenting our work: OATH-Frames, next week at #EMNLP2024 in Computational Social Science and Cultural Analytics 2 (10:30-12pm EST) Thursday 11/14.
Please reach out if you want to chat about NLP x Computational Social Science and LLMs for social good applications ✨
📢 Can LLMs 🤖 assist social workers 👩🏻💻 in characterizing discourse on social issues?
We introduce OATH-Frames: a resource for understanding Online Attitudes Towards Homelessness at scale, built with LLMs as assistants.

Had a great time presenting my work (w @PiaSommerauer & @PiekVossen) on list verbalisations in knowledge graph QA systems at #KGSum!
If you're interested how context and pragmatics should influence summarisation and verbalisation it's soon to appear in the workshop proceedings!
Lea Krause proposes "More Informative List Verbalisations". #iswc_conf #iswc2022

Had a great time interacting with other researchers at #NAACL2022 last week and chatting about the topics in NLP that I am so passionate about!
Also really enjoyed presenting and discussing our poster on hate speech definitions @WOAHWorkshop #NLProc
Looking forward to present our work @WOAHWorkshop at #NAACL2022 in-person:
"Hate Speech Criteria: A Modular Approach to Task-Specific Hate Speech Definitions" (arxiv.org/abs/2206.15455)
work done w/ Ivar Vermeulen, @eric_nalisnick, Marloes van Noorloos & @antske
Additionally, we provide an overview of English hate speech datasets based on the criteria and aim to extend this to other languages in the future as well!
