SocialNLI: A Dialogue-Centric Social Inference Dataset

Akhil Deo, Kate Sanders, Benjamin Van Durme

Making theory-of-mind inferences from human dialogue is a strong indicator of a model's underlying social abilities, which are fundamental for adept AI assistants. However, large l…

Seeing Through the MiRAGE: Evaluating Multimodal Retrieval Augmented Generation

Alexander Martin, William Walden, Reno Kriz +5

We introduce MiRAGE, an evaluation framework for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) from multimodal sources. As audiovisual media becomes a more prevalent source of information o…

Bonsai: Interpretable Tree-Adaptive Grounded Reasoning

Kate Sanders, Benjamin Van Durme

To develop general-purpose collaborative agents, humans need reliable AI systems that can (1) adapt to new domains and (2) transparently reason with uncertainty to allow for verifi…

WikiVideo: Article Generation from Multiple Videos

Alexander Martin, Reno Kriz, William Gantt Walden +5

We introduce the task of grounded article generation with the goal of creating a Wikipedia-style article from multiple diverse videos about real-world events -- from natural disast…

Video-ColBERT: Contextualized Late Interaction for Text-to-Video Retrieval

Arun Reddy, Alexander Martin, Eugene Yang +7

In this work, we tackle the problem of text-to-video retrieval (T2VR). Inspired by the success of late interaction techniques in text-document, text-image, and text-video retrieval…

MMMORRF: Multimodal Multilingual Modularized Reciprocal Rank Fusion

Saron Samuel, Dan DeGenaro, Jimena Guallar-Blasco +13

Videos inherently contain multiple modalities, including visual events, text overlays, sounds, and speech, all of which are important for retrieval. However, state-of-the-art multi…

Grounding Partially-Defined Events in Multimodal Data

Kate Sanders, Reno Kriz, David Etter +5

How are we able to learn about complex current events just from short snippets of video? While natural language enables straightforward ways to represent under-specified, partially…
