The MILES team was in Miami (Florida, USA) to present the paper Chain and Causal Attention for Efficient Entity Tracking, co-authored by Erwan Fagnou, Paul Caillon, Blaise Delattre and Alexandre Allauzen, during the 2024 conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP).

If you missed the conference, make sure to check the paper!

MILES will be at NeurIPS 2024!

The paper Optimal Classification under Performative Distribution Shift co-authored by Edwige Cyffers (former MILES visiting student), Jamal Atif, Muni Sreenivas Pydi and Olivier Cappé (from our neighbors at ENS) was accepted for poster presentation at the conference. Make sure to check it out!

Pierre Wolinski joined the MILES team as a Maître de conférences (associate professor)! Pierre’s research interests revolve around deep learning, with a focus on optimizing the hyperparameters of neural networks. Welcome Pierre!

The paper Exploiting Precision and Recall to assess the quality and diversity of LLMs, by Florian Le Bronnec, Alexandre Vérine, Benjamin Negrevergne, Yann Chevaleyre and Alexandre Allauzen has been accepted to the 62nd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL 2024)!

This paper adapts the precision and recall metrics used in image generation to the context of text generation, with experiments on large language models (LLMs) such as LLAMA-2 and Mistral. Congrats to all, and especially to Florian Le Bronnec and Alexandre Vérine for leading the effort!

Théo Delemazure, PhD student and MILES member, is first author on two papers accepted at the 33rd International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI 2024) :

– Selecting the Most Conflicting Pair of Candidates

– Comparing Ways of Obtaining Candidate Orderings from Approval Ballots

One paper authored by MILES member will be presented at AISTATS 2024, to be held on May 2-4 in Valencia, Spain:

Optimal Budgeted Rejection Sampling for Generative Models by Alexandre Vérine, Muni Sreenivas Pydi, Benjamin Negrevergne and Yann Chevaleyre.

Congratulations to Florian Le Bronnec, PhD student and MILES member, for receiving the best paper award at the 18th conference of the European chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL 2024)!

This paper is a joint work with Alexandre Allauzen, as well as colleagues from Sorbonne Université, Criteo and Singapore.
