We'll shortly be announcing our Shared Task for #ALTA2024.
In the meantime, we are sharing the 3rd-placed winner of the #ALTA2023 Shared Task, which was to distinguish #LLM-generated from human-generated text.
Here, Ahmed El-Sayed and Omar Nasr of the Arab Academy for Science and Technology use an #ensemble approach of many models to perform well on both the dev and test sets.
While you're thinking about what to submit to the Call for Problems for the #ALTA2024 Shared Task (link below), we're sharing with you the 2nd-place winner of the #ALTA2023 Shared Task, where participants distinguished between #LLM-generated and human-generated text.
Here, Yunhao Fang of #UniMelb used #fineTuning and #EnsembleModels to achieve accuracy of 99%

While you consider submitting to the Call for Problems for the #ALTA2024 Shared Task (see link below), we'd like to share with you the winner of the #ALTA2023 Shared Task, which involved distinguishing #LLM-generated from human-generated text.
Here, Rinaldo Gagiano and Lin Tian from #RMIT use a fine-tuned #Falcon7B model with label smoothing, yielding an accuracy of 99.91%. Well done!

Towards an integrated academic conference service offering
In my 27 years of professional life, I've attended, organised, and even keynoted - several conferences. Moreover, having spent time working in the audio-visual and videoconferencing service management space at a university, I'm uniquely qualified to have some (informed) opinions about the need for universities to have an integrated academic conference service offering. I've been thinking about this problem for the last few years, however, as the Publicity Chair for the Australasian [...]

Universities run many academic conferences each year. But they're often organised by academic teams, whose core skills are not in event management. Would we be better off having an integrated academic conferencing service?
In the lead up to #ALTA2024 in December at @ANUResearch, we're featuring interesting papers and talks from #ALTA2023
In this paper, Steven Nguyen at #UniMelb, Daniel Beck at #RMIT and Katja HΓΆlttΓ€-Otto also of #UniMelb work on the novel task of cognitive #empathy.
Using paired sentences from #design interviews and #NLP techniques, they show similarity of vectors from an #LLM is a promising approach in this space.
In the lead up to #ALTA2024
we're highlighting excellent talks and papers from previous ALTA events.
This paper, from Vlada Rozova, Jinghui Liu, and Mike Conway at #UniMelb from #ALTA2023, applies #NLP to help solve problems of ambiguity and complexity in #medical #clinical data.
This paper also formed part of the informative #tutorial series at #ALTA2023.
In the lead up to #ALTA2024, we're highlighting excellent talks and papers from previous ALTA events.
Here, listen to a #Keynote presentation from #ALTA2023 by Professor Heng Ji from #UniversityOfIllinois Urbana-Champaign, speaking to the #SmartBook - an #AI prophetess for disaster reporting and forecasting.
In this insightful talk, Professor Heng shows us how #NLP techniques provide better decision making tools.
We're delighted to announce that the #research papers from the #ALTA2023 Workshop in #Melbourne, #Australia last year are now available on the #ACL #Anthology:
Earlier this month, I attended and presented at the #ALTA2023 #NLP conference in #Melbourne - here are my #notes from the workshop.
