Quotation extraction is a widely useful task both from a sociological and from a Natural Language Processing perspective. However, very little data is available to study this task in languages other than English. In this paper, we present a manually annotated corpus of 1676 newswire texts in French for quotation extraction and source attribution. We first describe the composition of our corpus and the choices that were made in selecting the data. We then detail the annotation guidelines and annotation process, as well as a few statistics about the final corpus and the obtained balance between quote types (direct, indirect and mixed, which are particularly challenging). We end by detailing our inter-annotator agreement between the 8 annotators who worked on manual labelling, which is substantially high for such a difficult linguistic phenomenon.

Grid sentence is commonly used for studying the Lombard effect and Normal-to-Lombard conversion. However, it's unclear if Normal-to-Lombard models trained on grid sentences are sufficient for improving natural speech intelligibility in real-world applications. This paper presents the recording of a parallel Lombard corpus (called Lombard Chinese TIMIT, LCT) extracting natural sentences from Chinese TIMIT. Then We compare natural and grid sentences in terms of Lombard effect and Normal-to-Lombard conversion using LCT and Enhanced MAndarin Lombard Grid corpus (EMALG). Through a parametric analysis of the Lombard effect, We find that as the noise level increases, both natural sentences and grid sentences exhibit similar changes in parameters, but in terms of the increase of the alpha ratio, grid sentences show a greater increase. Following a subjective intelligibility assessment across genders and Signal-to-Noise Ratios, the StarGAN model trained on EMALG consistently outperforms the model trained on LCT in terms of improving intelligibility. This superior performance may be attributed to EMALG's larger alpha ratio increase from normal to Lombard speech.

With the development of deep learning, automatic speech recognition (ASR) has made significant progress. To further enhance the performance, revising recognition results is one of the lightweight but efficient manners. Various methods can be roughly classified into N-best reranking methods and error correction models. The former aims to select the hypothesis with the lowest error rate from a set of candidates generated by ASR for a given input speech. The latter focuses on detecting recognition errors in a given hypothesis and correcting these errors to obtain an enhanced result. However, we observe that these studies are hardly comparable to each other as they are usually evaluated on different corpora, paired with different ASR models, and even use different datasets to train the models. Accordingly, we first concentrate on releasing an ASR hypothesis revising (HypR) dataset in this study. HypR contains several commonly used corpora (AISHELL-1, TED-LIUM 2, and LibriSpeech) and provides 50 recognition hypotheses for each speech utterance. The checkpoint models of the ASR are also published. In addition, we implement and compare several classic and representative methods, showing the recent research progress in revising speech recognition results. We hope the publicly available HypR dataset can become a reference benchmark for subsequent research and promote the school of research to an advanced level.

The driving factors behind the development of large language models (LLMs) with impressive learning capabilities are their colossal model sizes and extensive training datasets. Along with the progress in natural language processing, LLMs have been frequently made accessible to the public to foster deeper investigation and applications. However, when it comes to training datasets for these LLMs, especially the recent state-of-the-art models, they are often not fully disclosed. Creating training data for high-performing LLMs involves extensive cleaning and deduplication to ensure the necessary level of quality. The lack of transparency for training data has thus hampered research on attributing and addressing hallucination and bias issues in LLMs, hindering replication efforts and further advancements in the community. These challenges become even more pronounced in multilingual learning scenarios, where the available multilingual text datasets are often inadequately collected and cleaned. Consequently, there is a lack of open-source and readily usable dataset to effectively train LLMs in multiple languages. To overcome this issue, we present CulturaX, a substantial multilingual dataset with 6.3 trillion tokens in 167 languages, tailored for LLM development. Our dataset undergoes meticulous cleaning and deduplication through a rigorous pipeline of multiple stages to accomplish the best quality for model training, including language identification, URL-based filtering, metric-based cleaning, document refinement, and data deduplication. CulturaX is fully released to the public in HuggingFace to facilitate research and advancements in multilingual LLMs: //huggingface.co/datasets/uonlp/CulturaX.

The initial motivation for this work was the linguistic case of the spread of Germanic syntactic features into Romance dialects of North-Eastern Italy, which occurred after the immigration of German people to Tyrol during the High Middle Ages. To obtain a representation of the data over the territory suitable for a mathematical formulation, an interactive map is produced as a first step, using tools of what is called Geographic Data Science. A smooth two-dimensional surface G is introduced, expressing locally which fraction of territory uses a given German language feature: it is obtained by a piecewise cubic curvature minimizing interpolant of the discrete function that says if at any surveyed locality that feature is used or not. This surface G is thought of as the value at the present time of a function describing a diffusion-convection phenomenon in two dimensions (here said tidal mode), which is subjected in a very natural way to the same equation used in physics, introducing a contextual diffusivity concept: it is shown that with two different assumptions about diffusivity, solutions of this equation, evaluated at the present time, fit well with the data interpolated by G, thus providing two convincing different pictures of diffusion-convection in the case under study, albeit simplifications and approximations. Very importantly, it is shown that the linguistic diffusion model known to linguists as Schmidt waves can be counted among the solutions of the diffusion equation

The main objective of this research paper is to investigate the local convergence characteristics of Model-agnostic Meta-learning (MAML) when applied to linear system quadratic optimal control (LQR). MAML and its variations have become popular techniques for quickly adapting to new tasks by leveraging previous learning knowledge in areas like regression, classification, and reinforcement learning. However, its theoretical guarantees remain unknown due to non-convexity and its structure, making it even more challenging to ensure stability in the dynamic system setting. This study focuses on exploring MAML in the LQR setting, providing its local convergence guarantees while maintaining the stability of the dynamical system. The paper also presents simple numerical results to demonstrate the convergence properties of MAML in LQR tasks.

High-dimensional datasets depict a challenge for learning tasks in data mining and machine learning. Feature selection is an effective technique in dealing with dimensionality reduction. It is often an essential data processing step prior to applying a learning algorithm. Over the decades, filter feature selection methods have evolved from simple univariate relevance ranking algorithms to more sophisticated relevance-redundancy trade-offs and to multivariate dependencies-based approaches in recent years. This tendency to capture multivariate dependence aims at obtaining unique information about the class from the intercooperation among features. This paper presents a comprehensive survey of the state-of-the-art work on filter feature selection methods assisted by feature intercooperation, and summarizes the contributions of different approaches found in the literature. Furthermore, current issues and challenges are introduced to identify promising future research and development.

Many tasks in natural language processing can be viewed as multi-label classification problems. However, most of the existing models are trained with the standard cross-entropy loss function and use a fixed prediction policy (e.g., a threshold of 0.5) for all the labels, which completely ignores the complexity and dependencies among different labels. In this paper, we propose a meta-learning method to capture these complex label dependencies. More specifically, our method utilizes a meta-learner to jointly learn the training policies and prediction policies for different labels. The training policies are then used to train the classifier with the cross-entropy loss function, and the prediction policies are further implemented for prediction. Experimental results on fine-grained entity typing and text classification demonstrate that our proposed method can obtain more accurate multi-label classification results.

Lots of learning tasks require dealing with graph data which contains rich relation information among elements. Modeling physics system, learning molecular fingerprints, predicting protein interface, and classifying diseases require that a model to learn from graph inputs. In other domains such as learning from non-structural data like texts and images, reasoning on extracted structures, like the dependency tree of sentences and the scene graph of images, is an important research topic which also needs graph reasoning models. Graph neural networks (GNNs) are connectionist models that capture the dependence of graphs via message passing between the nodes of graphs. Unlike standard neural networks, graph neural networks retain a state that can represent information from its neighborhood with an arbitrary depth. Although the primitive graph neural networks have been found difficult to train for a fixed point, recent advances in network architectures, optimization techniques, and parallel computation have enabled successful learning with them. In recent years, systems based on graph convolutional network (GCN) and gated graph neural network (GGNN) have demonstrated ground-breaking performance on many tasks mentioned above. In this survey, we provide a detailed review over existing graph neural network models, systematically categorize the applications, and propose four open problems for future research.
