Human Uncertainty-Aware Data Selection and Automatic Labeling in Visual Question Answering

Jian Lan, Zhicheng Liu, Udo Schlegel +5

Large vision-language models (VLMs) achieve strong performance in Visual Question Answering but still rely heavily on supervised fine-tuning (SFT) with massive labeled datasets, wh…

A Comprehensive Evaluation of Multilingual Chain-of-Thought Reasoning: Performance, Consistency, and Faithfulness Across Languages

Raoyuan Zhao, Yihong Liu, Hinrich Schütze +1

Large reasoning models (LRMs) increasingly rely on step-by-step Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning to improve task performance, particularly in high-resource languages such as Englis…

Evaluating Robustness of Large Language Models Against Multilingual Typographical Errors

Raoyuan Zhao, Yihong Liu, Lena Altinger +2

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in multilingual, real-world applications with user inputs -- naturally introducing \emph{typographical errors} (typos). Yet m…

Do We Know What LLMs Don't Know? A Study of Consistency in Knowledge Probing

Raoyuan Zhao, Abdullatif Köksal, Ali Modarressi +2

The reliability of large language models (LLMs) is greatly compromised by their tendency to hallucinate, underscoring the need for precise identification of knowledge gaps within L…

What's the Difference? Supporting Users in Identifying the Effects of Prompt and Model Changes Through Token Patterns

Michael A. Hedderich, Anyi Wang, Raoyuan Zhao +3

Prompt engineering for large language models is challenging, as even small prompt perturbations or model changes can significantly impact the generated output texts. Existing evalu…

MAKIEval: A Multilingual Automatic WiKidata-based Framework for Cultural Awareness Evaluation for LLMs

Raoyuan Zhao, Beiduo Chen, Barbara Plank +1

Large language models (LLMs) are used globally across many languages, but their English-centric pretraining raises concerns about cross-lingual disparities for cultural awareness,…

Charting the Landscape of African NLP: Mapping Progress and Shaping the Road Ahead

Jesujoba O. Alabi, Michael A. Hedderich, David Ifeoluwa Adelani +1

With over 2,000 languages and potentially millions of speakers, Africa represents one of the richest linguistic regions in the world. Yet, this diversity is scarcely reflected in s…

ExPLAIND: Unifying Model, Data, and Training Attribution to Study Model Behavior

Florian Eichin, Yupei Du, Philipp Mondorf +3

Post-hoc interpretability methods typically attribute a model's behavior to its components, data, or training trajectory in isolation, and are often tied to a particular level of g…

Facilitating Asynchronous Idea Generation and Selection with Chatbots

Joongi Shin, Ankit Khatri, Michael A. Hedderich +2

People can generate high-quality ideas by building on each other's ideas. By enabling individuals to contribute their ideas at their own comfortable time and method (i.e., asynchro…

Probing LLMs for Multilingual Discourse Generalization Through a Unified Label Set

Florian Eichin, Yang Janet Liu, Barbara Plank +1

Discourse understanding is essential for many NLP tasks, yet most existing work remains constrained by framework-dependent discourse representations. This work investigates whether…
