Positional task conditioning for scalable defect detection across product families in large product catalogs

Soham Satyadharma, Gabriel Roccabruna, Suleiman A. Khan

Product families in large product catalogs suffer from inconsistencies such as duplicates and unit mismatches that degrade customer experience. Detecting these requires reasoning o…

MATEO: A Multimodal Benchmark for Temporal Reasoning and Planning in LVLMs

Gabriel Roccabruna, Olha Khomyn, Giuseppe Riccardi

AI agents need to plan to achieve complex goals that involve orchestrating perception, sub-goal decomposition, and execution. These plans consist of ordered steps structured accord…

Will LLMs Replace the Encoder-Only Models in Temporal Relation Classification?

Gabriel Roccabruna, Massimo Rizzoli, Giuseppe Riccardi

The automatic detection of temporal relations among events has been mainly investigated with encoder-only models such as RoBERTa. Large Language Models (LLM) have recently shown pr…

Should We Fine-Tune or RAG? Evaluating Different Techniques to Adapt LLMs for Dialogue

Simone Alghisi, Massimo Rizzoli, Gabriel Roccabruna +2

We study the limitations of Large Language Models (LLMs) for the task of response generation in human-machine dialogue. Several techniques have been proposed in the literature for…

Understanding Emotion Valence is a Joint Deep Learning Task

Gabriel Roccabruna, Seyed Mahed Mousavi, Giuseppe Riccardi

The valence analysis of speakers' utterances or written posts helps to understand the activation and variations of the emotional state throughout the conversation. More recently, t…
