NovaCOMET: Open Commonsense Foundation Models with Symbolic Knowledge Distillation

Peter West, Ronan Le Bras, Taylor Sorensen +8

We present NovaCOMET, an open commonsense knowledge model, that combines the best aspects of knowledge and general task models. Compared to previous knowledge models, NovaCOMET all…

MacGyver: Are Large Language Models Creative Problem Solvers?

Yufei Tian, Abhilasha Ravichander, Lianhui Qin +6

We explore the creative problem-solving capabilities of modern LLMs in a novel constrained setting. To this end, we create MACGYVER, an automatically generated dataset consisting o…

FANToM: A Benchmark for Stress-testing Machine Theory of Mind in Interactions

Hyunwoo Kim, Melanie Sclar, Xuhui Zhou +4

Theory of mind (ToM) evaluations currently focus on testing models using passive narratives that inherently lack interactivity. We introduce FANToM, a new benchmark designed to str…

Commonsense Knowledge Transfer for Pre-trained Language Models

Wangchunshu Zhou, Ronan Le Bras, Yejin Choi

Despite serving as the foundation models for a wide range of NLP benchmarks, pre-trained language models have shown limited capabilities of acquiring implicit commonsense knowledge…

Modular Transformers: Compressing Transformers into Modularized Layers for Flexible Efficient Inference

Wangchunshu Zhou, Ronan Le Bras, Yejin Choi

Pre-trained Transformer models like T5 and BART have advanced the state of the art on a wide range of text generation tasks. Compressing these models into smaller ones has become c…

NLPositionality: Characterizing Design Biases of Datasets and Models

Sebastin Santy, Jenny T. Liang, Ronan Le Bras +2

Design biases in NLP systems, such as performance differences for different populations, often stem from their creator's positionality, i.e., views and lived experiences shaped by…

From Dogwhistles to Bullhorns: Unveiling Coded Rhetoric with Language Models

Julia Mendelsohn, Ronan Le Bras, Yejin Choi +1

Dogwhistles are coded expressions that simultaneously convey one meaning to a broad audience and a second one, often hateful or provocative, to a narrow in-group; they are deployed…

Faith and Fate: Limits of Transformers on Compositionality

Nouha Dziri, Ximing Lu, Melanie Sclar +13

Transformer large language models (LLMs) have sparked admiration for their exceptional performance on tasks that demand intricate multi-step reasoning. Yet, these models simultaneo…

Leftover Lunch: Advantage-based Offline Reinforcement Learning for Language Models

Ashutosh Baheti, Ximing Lu, Faeze Brahman +3

Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF) is the most prominent method for Language Model (LM) alignment. However, RLHF is an unstable and data-hungry process that continua…
