NeurIPS 2022 Workshop on Trustworthy and Socially Responsible Machine Learning (TSRML)2022The domain of joint vision-language understanding, especially in the context of reasoning in Visual Question Answering (VQA) models, has garnered significant attention in the recent past. While most of the existing VQA models focus on improving the accuracy of VQA, the way models arrive at an answer is oftentimes a black box. As a step towards making the VQA task more explainable and interpretable, our

NeurIPS 2022 Workshop on Trustworthy and Socially Responsible Machine Learning (TSRML)2022We propose KNN-Kmeans MT, a sample efficient algorithm that improves retrieval based augmentation performance in low resource settings by adding an additional K-means filtering layer after the KNN step. KNN-Kmeans MT like its predecessor retrieval augmented machine translation approaches (Khandelwal et al. [2020]) doesn’t require any additional training and outperforms the existing methods in low resource

EMNLP 20222022Multi-modality support has become an integral part of creating a seamless user experience with modern voice assistants with smart displays. Users refer to images, video thumbnails, or the accompanying text descriptions on the screen through voice communication with AI powered devices. This raises the need to either augment existing commercial voice only dialogue systems with state-of-the-art multimodal

NeurIPS 2022 Workshop on Efficient Natural Language and Speech Processing (ENLSP), ICASSP 20232022Transformer-based models demonstrate state of the art results on several natural language understanding tasks. However, their deployment comes at the cost of increased footprint and inference latency, limiting their adoption to real-time applications. Early exit strategies are designed to speed-up the inference by routing out a subset of samples at the earlier layers of the model. Exiting early causes losing

EMNLP 20222022Evaluations in machine learning rarely use the latest metrics, datasets, or human evaluation in favor of remaining compatible with prior work. The compatibility, often facilitated through leaderboards, thus leads to outdated but standardized evaluation practices. We pose that the standardization is taking place in the wrong spot. Evaluation infrastructure should enable researchers to use the latest methods
