Just present our paper ECIR2024. As I mentioned at the end of the talk, I am looking for PhD students who have a shared interest with me on the topic of Personalisation in Conversational AI to join Sheffield NLP. Feel free to get in touch with the details.

It has been a lovely week ECIR2024. Met old and new friends! It won’t be long and see you all soon!

Great talk by TerrierTeam alumni, UofG graduate, and friend Xi Wang at UofG Computing Science on the role of synthetic dialogue generation in enhancing conversational recommendation systems. #IRTalk

The first invited talk in the LLIMIT workshop ACM CIKM 2023 by Xi Wang on Task based dialogue systems... #GenerativeAI

📢This is a follow-up advert on PhD student recruitment. The project is entitled 'Language Model-Grounded User Simulation for Personalised Conversational Systems' and is partially funded at a local student rate, but it also welcomes international applicants. 🧵

🤣🤣Thrilled to share that our paper, rejected by #SIGIR2024 , introducing a diffusion graph transformer for recommendation, is now available on arXiv: arxiv.org/pdf/2404.03326… w/ Xi Wang and Iadh Ounis

Now Xi Wang sharing research in task oriented conversational search #ecir2024

Strongly recommend this nice, hands-on and knowledgeable supervisor for your PhD journey!

In #AAAI23 , we present our recently introduced knowledge base, ‘Task2KB’, which is constructed using data crawled from WikiHow, an online knowledge resource offering instructional articles on a wide range of tasks.

If you are there tomorrow, don’t miss this tutorial given by these amazing speakers!

Great opportunity to do a PhD in #NLProc and info retrieval with Xi 👇

Looking forward to giving this talk on Friday

If you are looking for a PhD in #NLProc and #IR , this is really a great opportunity for you to do a PhD with Xi :)
