OpenWhistle: A Large-Scale Longitudinal Dataset and Benchmark of Bottlenose Dolphin Vocalizations

Faadil Mustun, Chiara Semenzin, Roberto Dessi +7

Recent advances in bioacoustics have been driven by large-scale corpora and standardized benchmarks, yet existing resources are overwhelmingly bird-centric and shallow per species,…

Dolph2Vec: Self-Supervised Representations of Dolphin Vocalizations

Chiara Semenzin, Faadil Mustun, Roberto Dessi +5

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has opened new opportunities in bioacoustics by enabling scalable modeling of animal vocalizations without the need for expensive manual annotation.…

Cross-Domain Image Captioning with Discriminative Finetuning

Roberto Dessì, Michele Bevilacqua, Eleonora Gualdoni +3

Neural captioners are typically trained to mimic human-generated references without optimizing for any specific communication goal, leading to problems such as the generation of va…

Can discrete information extraction prompts generalize across language models?

Nathanaël Carraz Rakotonirina, Roberto Dessì, Fabio Petroni +2

We study whether automatically-induced prompts that effectively extract information from a language model can also be used, out-of-the-box, to probe other language models for the s…

Augmented Language Models: a Survey

Grégoire Mialon, Roberto Dessì, Maria Lomeli +10

This survey reviews works in which language models (LMs) are augmented with reasoning skills and the ability to use tools. The former is defined as decomposing a potentially comple…

Toolformer: Language Models Can Teach Themselves to Use Tools

Timo Schick, Jane Dwivedi-Yu, Roberto Dessì +5

Language models (LMs) exhibit remarkable abilities to solve new tasks from just a few examples or textual instructions, especially at scale. They also, paradoxically, struggle with…
