Multilingual Training and Evaluation Resources for Vision-Language Models
Daniela Baiamonte, Elena Fano, Matteo Gabburo +3
Vision Language Models (VLMs) achieved rapid progress in the recent years. However, despite their growth, VLMs development is heavily grounded on English, leading to two main limit…
SLIMER-IT: Zero-Shot NER on Italian Language
Andrew Zamai, Leonardo Rigutini, Marco Maggini +1
Traditional approaches to Named Entity Recognition (NER) frame the task into a BIO sequence labeling problem. Although these systems often excel in the downstream task at hand, the…
Show Less, Instruct More: Enriching Prompts with Definitions and Guidelines for Zero-Shot NER
Andrew Zamai, Andrea Zugarini, Leonardo Rigutini +2
Recently, several specialized instruction-tuned Large Language Models (LLMs) for Named Entity Recognition (NER) have emerged. Compared to traditional NER approaches, these models h…
A Turkish Educational Crossword Puzzle Generator
Kamyar Zeinalipour, Yusuf Gökberk Keptiğ, Marco Maggini +2
This paper introduces the first Turkish crossword puzzle generator designed to leverage the capabilities of large language models (LLMs) for educational purposes. In this work, we…
Clue-Instruct: Text-Based Clue Generation for Educational Crossword Puzzles
Andrea Zugarini, Kamyar Zeinalipour, Surya Sai Kadali +3
Crossword puzzles are popular linguistic games often used as tools to engage students in learning. Educational crosswords are characterized by less cryptic and more factual clues t…
Enhancing Modern Supervised Word Sense Disambiguation Models by Semantic Lexical Resources
Stefano Melacci, Achille Globo, Leonardo Rigutini
Supervised models for Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) currently yield to state-of-the-art results in the most popular benchmarks. Despite the recent introduction of Word Embeddings…
Multitask Kernel-based Learning with Logic Constraints
Michelangelo Diligenti, Marco Gori, Marco Maggini +1
This paper presents a general framework to integrate prior knowledge in the form of logic constraints among a set of task functions into kernel machines. The logic propositions pro…
Neural paraphrasing by automatically crawled and aligned sentence pairs
Achille Globo, Antonio Trevisi, Andrea Zugarini +3
Paraphrasing is the task of re-writing an input text using other words, without altering the meaning of the original content. Conversational systems can exploit automatic paraphras…
A novel integrated industrial approach with cobots in the age of industry 4.0 through conversational interaction and computer vision
Andrea Pazienza, Nicola Macchiarulo, Felice Vitulano +6
From robots that replace workers to robots that serve as helpful colleagues, the field of robotic automation is experiencing a new trend that represents a huge challenge for compon…
Data Augmentation and Transfer Learning Approaches Applied to Facial Expressions Recognition
Enrico Randellini, Leonardo Rigutini, Claudio Sacca'
The face expression is the first thing we pay attention to when we want to understand a person's state of mind. Thus, the ability to recognize facial expressions in an automatic wa…
Fast Vocabulary Transfer for Language Model Compression
Leonidas Gee, Andrea Zugarini, Leonardo Rigutini +1
Real-world business applications require a trade-off between language model performance and size. We propose a new method for model compression that relies on vocabulary transfer.…
BUSTER: a "BUSiness Transaction Entity Recognition" dataset
Andrea Zugarini, Andrew Zamai, Marco Ernandes +1
Albeit Natural Language Processing has seen major breakthroughs in the last few years, transferring such advances into real-world business cases can be challenging. One of the reas…
Multi-word Tokenization for Sequence Compression
Leonidas Gee, Leonardo Rigutini, Marco Ernandes +1
Large Language Models have proven highly successful at modelling a variety of tasks. However, this comes at a steep computational cost that hinders wider industrial uptake. In this…
Italian Crossword Generator: Enhancing Education through Interactive Word Puzzles
Kamyar Zeinalipour, Tommaso laquinta, Asya Zanollo +4
Educational crosswords offer numerous benefits for students, including increased engagement, improved understanding, critical thinking, and memory retention. Creating high-quality…
SortNet: Learning To Rank By a Neural-Based Sorting Algorithm
Leonardo Rigutini, Tiziano Papini, Marco Maggini +1
The problem of relevance ranking consists of sorting a set of objects with respect to a given criterion. Since users may prefer different relevance criteria, the ranking algorithms…
Multitask Kernel-based Learning with First-Order Logic Constraints
Michelangelo Diligenti, Marco Gori, Marco Maggini +1
In this paper we propose a general framework to integrate supervised and unsupervised examples with background knowledge expressed by a collection of first-order logic clauses into…
An energy-based comparative analysis of common approaches to text classification in the Legal domain
Sinan Gultekin, Achille Globo, Andrea Zugarini +2
Most Machine Learning research evaluates the best solutions in terms of performance. However, in the race for the best performing model, many important aspects are often overlooked…
