1. Problem:

Base LLMs can perform zero-shot Translation, but are poorly calibrated and sometimes “fail to translate”; i.e. they continue generating in the source language or produce empty generations.

2. Proposed solution
3. Limitations
4. Additional
5. Concurrent Work

Don’t miss Mark Dredze’s lecture, happening tomorrow!

What AI research feels like these days.

The deadline for abstracts is coming up soon! This is a great event for students in the Mid-Atlantic area.

Full professor walking to the mic at a symposium to ask a question they already know the answer to

That feeling when you start a large GPU machine on AWS and accidentally leave it running.

When you are impressed by ChatGPT/Gemini/LLaMA/etc, it's important to keep the little details in mind.

The new GPUs have arrived!

PhD students

We have always submitted papers to EastasiACL. Never to EurasiACL.

Looks like someone just got tenure.

My students think this hits too close to home. 😁

Aligning LLMs to Quote from Pre-Training Data

Interesting approach to enable verifiability in LLMs.

Proposes techniques to align LLMs to leverage memorized information quotes directly from pre-training data.

Looks like the alignment approach is not only able to generate…

Who wore it better?

Mark Dredze JHU CLSP We are right there with you on the excitement!

🍩+🌒=😃

Apparently, 'optimization memes' are a thing.

Hey JHU CLSP! Let’s get excited for today’s eclipse. ☀️🌗🕶️😎🍩

Thinking a lot about Barbie memes these days.
