1/ Long-ish thread on my first-author publication to appear at #acl2020nlp. Joint work with my supervisor Roberto Navigli: "Breaking the (80%) Glass Ceiling: Raising the State of the Art in Word Sense Disambiguation by Incorporating Knowledge Graph Information" #NLPProc

Looking for a way to integrate high-quality syntagmatic knowledge into your KB? Look no further!

🥳🥂

Federico Scozzafava and Marco Maru together with Babelscape made this demo aclweb.org/anthology/2020… for ACL 2026. Now available for reading and for playing. It is a high-performing #WSD system for DE EN ES FR and IT. REST API available at syntagnet.org/api-documentat…

Join us for the live Q&A sessions w/ first author Federico Scozzafava today at 8.45 am and 5 pm (UTC-0) at #acl2020nlp

The way forward in AI is to focus on understanding, as opposed to mimicry. If you want to understand the nature of life, you'd look at autopoiesis, molecular biology, DNA. If you wanted to mimic life, you'd be drawing cartoons. Big difference. Lots of "AI" is a neural cartoon.

Generationary or: "How we Went Beyond Word Sense Inventories and Learned to Gloss" coming this fall at emnlp2020. Definition modeling meets WSD! Neither I, Michele Bevilacqua, nor Roberto Navigli harmed any sense inventory during the making of this paper. #NLProc SapienzaNLP 😇😇😇

emnlp2020 I am unable to upload the camera ready version of any of my papers, wasn't the deadline for the camera ready supposed to be tomorrow? Is there anyone else experiencing the same #NLProc?

Hey #NLProc ppl, "Olympus would be this way"! ARES, contextualized sense embeddings for multilingual Word Sense Disambiguation and Word-in-Context, is out. Work with Tommaso and Roberto Navigli at #EMNLP2020. Check it out! Site: sensembert.org/ares Paper: researchgate.net/publication/34…

Hey #NLProc ppl, ARES came on Earth and brought his contextualised sense embeddings for multilingual Word Sense Disambiguation & Word-in-Context! #EMNLP2020 work by Bianca, Tommaso and Roberto Navigli @EMNLP2020. sensembert.org/ares Paper: researchgate.net/publication/34…

Definitely something that will make a "sci-ficionado" thrilled. Check out our emnlp2020 paper Generationary at aclweb.org/anthology/2020…

Together with @Babelscape we just released a semantic search engine which correlates people, papers, research bodies, concepts and areas of the ACL-IJCNLP 2021! acl.semanticpaths.org #semanticpaths #ACL2021NLP #NLProc ACL 2026

Thanks to many B.Sc. students, we released a cool English #crossword puzzle game for the summer! An Android app with small and big #crosswordpuzzles! play.google.com/store/apps/det… #CrossTheWord #crosswordsonline #crosswords ELEXIS EU SapienzaNLP @Babelscape

New PhD position open on *eco-sustainable large language models* in my group at SapienzaNLP + 12 months at @Babelscape with tight deadline (October 27th) to join 7 other new students this year! Contact me! #NLProc #languagemodels #neurosymbolic #PhD phd.uniroma1.it/web/concorso37…

We analyzed current Word Sense Disambiguation #WSD systems so that you don’t have to 🔍.
