Christian Fang, Qixiang Fang, Dong Nguyen
We describe our experiments for SemEval-2023 Task 4 on the identification of human values behind arguments (ValueEval). Because human values are subjective concepts which require p…
Measuring the Instability of Fine-Tuning
Yupei Du, Dong Nguyen
Fine-tuning pre-trained language models on downstream tasks with varying random seeds has been shown to be unstable, especially on small datasets. Many previous studies have invest…
Same Author or Just Same Topic? Towards Content-Independent Style Representations
Anna Wegmann, Marijn Schraagen, Dong Nguyen
Linguistic style is an integral component of language. Recent advances in the development of style representations have increasingly used training objectives from authorship verifi…
Evaluating the Construct Validity of Text Embeddings with Application to Survey Questions
Qixiang Fang, Dong Nguyen, Daniel L Oberski
Text embedding models from Natural Language Processing can map text data (e.g. words, sentences, documents) to supposedly meaningful numerical representations (a.k.a. text embeddin…
Does It Capture STEL? A Modular, Similarity-based Linguistic Style Evaluation Framework
Anna Wegmann, Dong Nguyen
Style is an integral part of natural language. However, evaluation methods for style measures are rare, often task-specific and usually do not control for content. We propose the m…
Assessing the Reliability of Word Embedding Gender Bias Measures
Yupei Du, Qixiang Fang, Dong Nguyen
Various measures have been proposed to quantify human-like social biases in word embeddings. However, bias scores based on these measures can suffer from measurement error. One ind…
How we do things with words: Analyzing text as social and cultural data
Dong Nguyen, Maria Liakata, Simon DeDeo +4
In this article we describe our experiences with computational text analysis. We hope to achieve three primary goals. First, we aim to shed light on thorny issues not always at the…
Computational Sociolinguistics: A Survey
Dong Nguyen, A. Seza Doğruöz, Carolyn P. Rosé +1
Language is a social phenomenon and variation is inherent to its social nature. Recently, there has been a surge of interest within the computational linguistics (CL) community in…
