Research

Can small models excel at summarization without imitating LLM or human-written references? We present InfoSumm, a framework to distill a powerful summarizer that outperforms order-of-magnitude larger LLM summarizers, solely based on the information-theoretic objective for summarization.

It is possible to generate a high-quality dataset for sentential paraphrasing and summarization directly from an off-the-shelf LM, even when it is impossible for the LM itself to reliably perform these tasks.

We introduce JamDec, an inference-time algorithm for authorship obfuscation that is domain-agnostic, controllable, yet does not require human supervision.

Can we adapt LLMs without fine-tuning? We propose using a lightweight adapter (e.g. GPT-2) during decoding time, efficiently tailoring even the strongest proprietary LLMs toward user-defined reward.

We propose a text style transfer framework from arbitrary source style to many target styles via large-scale data generation with expert-guided decoding and offline RL.

We improve LM reasoning by generating abductive and recursive explanations from language models, then formulating inference as a satisfiability problem over these generations.

A novel GNN for temporal KG is proposed that encodes an interpretable graph substructure for knowledge graph completion.

We present a novel decoder model based on attention flow that learns to explore KG and retrieve a relevant knowledge path to ground a dialogue agent.

DataHalo implements a customizable notification visualization system for mobile devices, providing prolonged ambient visualizations based on time-varying importance model to enable longitudinal interaction with the notifications.
