Pantagruel: Unified Self-Supervised Encoders for French Text and Speech

Phuong-Hang Le, Valentin Pelloin, Arnault Chatelain +27

We release Pantagruel models, a new family of self-supervised encoder models for French text and speech. Instead of predicting modality-tailored targets such as textual tokens or s…

ding-01 :ARG0: An AMR Corpus for Spontaneous French Dialogue

Jeongwoo Kang, Maria Boritchev, Maximin Coavoux

We present our work to build a French semantic corpus by annotating French dialogue in Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR). Specifically, we annotate the DinG corpus, consisting…

Reassessing Graph Linearization for Sequence-to-sequence AMR Parsing: On the Advantages and Limitations of Triple-Based Encoding

Jeongwoo Kang, Maximin Coavoux, Cédric Lopez +1

Sequence-to-sequence models are widely used to train Abstract Meaning Representation (Banarescu et al., 2013, AMR) parsers. To train such models, AMR graphs have to be linearized i…

Should Cross-Lingual AMR Parsing go Meta? An Empirical Assessment of Meta-Learning and Joint Learning AMR Parsing

Jeongwoo Kang, Maximin Coavoux, Cédric Lopez +1

Cross-lingual AMR parsing is the task of predicting AMR graphs in a target language when training data is available only in a source language. Due to the small size of AMR training…

Growing Trees on Sounds: Assessing Strategies for End-to-End Dependency Parsing of Speech

Adrien Pupier, Maximin Coavoux, Jérôme Goulian +1

Direct dependency parsing of the speech signal -- as opposed to parsing speech transcriptions -- has recently been proposed as a task (Pupier et al. 2022), as a way of incorporatin…

What has LeBenchmark Learnt about French Syntax?

Zdravko Dugonjić, Adrien Pupier, Benjamin Lecouteux +1

The paper reports on a series of experiments aiming at probing LeBenchmark, a pretrained acoustic model trained on 7k hours of spoken French, for syntactic information. Pretrained…

BERT is not The Count: Learning to Match Mathematical Statements with Proofs

Weixian Waylon Li, Yftah Ziser, Maximin Coavoux +1

We introduce a task consisting in matching a proof to a given mathematical statement. The task fits well within current research on Mathematical Information Retrieval and, more gen…

On Detecting Policy-Related Political Ads: An Exploratory Analysis of Meta Ads in 2022 French Election

Vera Sosnovik, Romaissa Kessi, Maximin Coavoux +1

Online political advertising has become the cornerstone of political campaigns. The budget spent solely on political advertising in the U.S. has increased by more than 100% from $…

BLOOM: A 176B-Parameter Open-Access Multilingual Language Model

BigScience Workshop, :, Teven Le Scao +391

Large language models (LLMs) have been shown to be able to perform new tasks based on a few demonstrations or natural language instructions. While these capabilities have led to wi…

Learning to Match Mathematical Statements with Proofs

Maximin Coavoux, Shay B. Cohen

We introduce a novel task consisting in assigning a proof to a given mathematical statement. The task is designed to improve the processing of research-level mathematical texts. Ap…

Self-Supervised and Controlled Multi-Document Opinion Summarization

Hady Elsahar, Maximin Coavoux, Matthias Gallé +1

We address the problem of unsupervised abstractive summarization of collections of user generated reviews with self-supervision and control. We propose a self-supervised setup that…

Discontinuous Constituency Parsing with a Stack-Free Transition System and a Dynamic Oracle

Maximin Coavoux, Shay B. Cohen

We introduce a novel transition system for discontinuous constituency parsing. Instead of storing subtrees in a stack --i.e. a data structure with linear-time sequential access-- t…

Unlexicalized Transition-based Discontinuous Constituency Parsing

Maximin Coavoux, Benoît Crabbé, Shay B. Cohen

Lexicalized parsing models are based on the assumptions that (i) constituents are organized around a lexical head (ii) bilexical statistics are crucial to solve ambiguities. In thi…
