Atomic Visual Entailment: Enhancing Zero-Shot Vision-Language Reasoning through Atomic Fact Decomposition and Learned Selection
Nallathambi Vethiappan, Derya Soydaner, Gijs Wijnholds
Visual entailment (VE) asks whether an image supports, contradicts, or leaves undecided a textual hypothesis. Strong results come from fine-tuning large vision-language models on l…
Enriching Historical Records: An OCR and AI-Driven Approach for Database Integration
Zahra Abedi, Richard M. K. van Dijk, Gijs Wijnholds +1
This research digitizes and analyzes the Leidse hoogleraren en lectoren 1575-1815 books written between 1983 and 1985, which contain biographic data about professors and curators o…
Dataset Creation for Visual Entailment using Generative AI
Rob Reijtenbach, Suzan Verberne, Gijs Wijnholds
In this paper we present and validate a new synthetic dataset for training visual entailment models. Existing datasets for visual entailment are small and sparse compared to datase…
Structural Ambiguity and its Disambiguation in Language Model Based Parsers: the Case of Dutch Clause Relativization
Gijs Wijnholds, Michael Moortgat
This paper addresses structural ambiguity in Dutch relative clauses. By investigating the task of disambiguation by grounding, we study how the presence of a prior sentence can res…
Proceedings End-to-End Compositional Models of Vector-Based Semantics
Michael Moortgat, Gijs Wijnholds
The workshop End-to-End Compositional Models of Vector-Based Semantics was held at NUI Galway on 15 and 16 August 2022 as part of the 33rd European Summer School in Logic, Language…
Discontinuous Constituency and BERT: A Case Study of Dutch
Konstantinos Kogkalidis, Gijs Wijnholds
In this paper, we set out to quantify the syntactic capacity of BERT in the evaluation regime of non-context free patterns, as occurring in Dutch. We devise a test suite based on a…
Anaphora and Ellipsis in Lambek Calculus with a Relevant Modality: Syntax and Semantics
Lachlan McPheat, Gijs Wijnholds, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh +2
Lambek calculus with a relevant modality of arXiv:1601.06303 syntactically resolves parasitic gaps in natural language. It resembles the Lambek calculus with anapho…
Fuzzy Generalised Quantifiers for Natural Language in Categorical Compositional Distributional Semantics
Matej Dostal, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh, Gijs Wijnholds
Recent work on compositional distributional models shows that bialgebras over finite dimensional vector spaces can be applied to treat generalised quantifiers for natural language.…
Improving BERT Pretraining with Syntactic Supervision
Giorgos Tziafas, Konstantinos Kogkalidis, Gijs Wijnholds +1
Bidirectional masked Transformers have become the core theme in the current NLP landscape. Despite their impressive benchmarks, a recurring theme in recent research has been to que…
Categorical Vector Space Semantics for Lambek Calculus with a Relevant Modality (Extended Abstract)
Lachlan McPheat, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh, Hadi Wazni +1
We develop a categorical compositional distributional semantics for Lambek Calculus with a Relevant Modality, which has a limited version of the contraction and permutation rules.…
SICKNL: A Dataset for Dutch Natural Language Inference
Gijs Wijnholds, Michael Moortgat
We present SICK-NL (read: signal), a dataset targeting Natural Language Inference in Dutch. SICK-NL is obtained by translating the SICK dataset of Marelli et al. (2014)from English…
A Frobenius Algebraic Analysis for Parasitic Gaps
Michael Moortgat, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh, Gijs Wijnholds
The interpretation of parasitic gaps is an ostensible case of non-linearity in natural language composition. Existing categorial analyses, both in the typelogical and in the combin…
Categorical Vector Space Semantics for Lambek Calculus with a Relevant Modality
Lachlan McPheat, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh, Hadi Wazni +1
We develop a categorical compositional distributional semantics for Lambek Calculus with a Relevant Modality !L*, which has a limited edition of the contraction and permutation rul…
A Typedriven Vector Semantics for Ellipsis with Anaphora using Lambek Calculus with Limited Contraction
Gijs Wijnholds, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh
We develop a vector space semantics for verb phrase ellipsis with anaphora using type-driven compositional distributional semantics based on the Lambek calculus with limited contra…
Classical Copying versus Quantum Entanglement in Natural Language: The Case of VP-ellipsis
Gijs Wijnholds, Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh
This paper compares classical copying and quantum entanglement in natural language by considering the case of verb phrase (VP) ellipsis. VP ellipsis is a non-linear linguistic phen…
A Proof-Theoretic Approach to Scope Ambiguity in Compositional Vector Space Models
Gijs Jasper Wijnholds
We investigate the extent to which compositional vector space models can be used to account for scope ambiguity in quantified sentences (of the form "Every man loves some woman").…
Lexical and Derivational Meaning in Vector-Based Models of Relativisation
Michael Moortgat, Gijs Wijnholds
Sadrzadeh et al (2013) present a compositional distributional analysis of relative clauses in English in terms of the Frobenius algebraic structure of finite dimensional vector spa…
