🚨 What’s the best way to select data for fine-tuning LLMs effectively? 📢Introducing ZIP-FIT—a compression-based data selection framework that outperforms leading baselines, achieving up to 85% faster convergence in cross-entropy loss, and selects data up to 65% faster. 🧵1/8

This is the best paper written so far about the impact of AI on scientific discovery

We're excited to be at #iswc2024 this week. Come talk to us about our work on knowledge graphs, LLMs, tables, and knowledge engineering: Paul Groth Bradley P. Allen Lise Stork Jan-Christoph Kalo . International Semantic Web Conference LM-KBC Challenge and KBC-LM workshop @ ISWC 2025

In our new PNASNews paper, across 21 experiments with 23,000+ participants, we identify a critical distortion that shapes decisions involving tradeoffs: we find that people systematically overweight quantified information in such decisions. Paper: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 🧵

Fascinating talk by @ioanamanol on dealing with all the data models for data journalism at International Semantic Web Conference #ISWC2024 Very cool use of gittables to retrieve names for entities (cc @MadelonHulsebos)

Tomorrow the #EKAW2024 party will really kick off, but the proceedings are already available! Click on the link at event.cwi.nl/ekaw2024/ for temporary free access! #semweb #knowledgeengineering #knowledgemanagement #languagemodels #conference EKAW Conference

We're at #EKAW2024 this week across the street CWI . We have two papers: one on object influence retrieval & the other on the impact of entity linking. We also have multiple workshop contributions as well. Info at: indelab.org/news/ EKAW Conference

Brilliant and engaging talk by Teresa Liberatore at #EKAW2024: Influence Beyond Similarity—A Contrastive Learning Approach to Object Influence Retrieval. Insightful ideas and impactful research!

Really proud of James Nevin - a fantastic PhD student. Was fun to supervise him together with Michael Lees . We know that data handling (i.e. data integration, cleaning, etc) can have lots of downstream impacts. Here's evidence.

We have an opening for a PhD student investigating concept drift in sensor rich environments. Come work with the awesome Victoria Degeler werkenbij.uva.nl/en/vacancies/p…

Buckle up because we're crashing into the new year with my annual database retrospective: License change blowbacks! Databricks vs. SnowflakeDB gangwar! @DuckDB shotgun weddings! Buying a college quarterback with database money for your new lover! cs.cmu.edu/~pavlo/blog/20…

I spent 60+ hours finding 78 tacit knowledge videos. After going viral last year, my LW post is the Schelling point for sharing the type of vid Richard is talking about. If curious, check out the vids and pls share videos of this type in the comments! x.com/RichardMCNgo/s…

📢 New course alert 📢 I am currently teaching a course on "Language Models and Structured Data" at Institut Polytechnique de Paris. Topics: Language Models, LoRa, Quantization, RAG, Graphs, Tabular Data, Text2SQL Zenodo: zenodo.org/records/146733…

Also the Satellite proceedings for #ESWC2024 are out! Thanks to the whole team ESWC Conferences and the General Chair Albert Meroño Part I: link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9… Part II: link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9… #semanticweb #computerscience #knowledgegraphs #llm
