@inproceedings{Boyd-Graber-2024, Title = {More Victories, Less Cooperation: Assessing Cicero’s Diplomacy Play}, Booktitle = {Association for Computational Linguistics}, Year = {2024}, Location = {Bangkok, Thailand}, Url = {http://umiacs.umd.edu/~jbg//docs/2024_acl_cicero.pdf}, }
Accessible Abstract: Meta's recent AI, Cicero, grabbed headlines by its ability to beat humans at the game of Diplomacy: notable because players of the game not just need to make the right moves but also need to negotiate with each other in natural language. This paper investigates why it wins so many games, measuring its ability to persuade and trick other players. While Cicero wins just about every game, this is because of superhuman strategy, not superhuman communication, suggesting there is still further room for developing Diplomacy-playing AIs.

Accessible Abstract: Sometimes when you a translating from one language to another, a literal translation is not enough. Sometimes to actually understand what is being said, you need additional context. Professional translators know this, and the process that they use to help a listener is called "explicitation" to capturing cultural differences between source and target audiences. We introduce techniques for automatically generating explicitations, motivated by WikiExpl(a dataset collected from Wikipedia and annotate with human translators), and evaluate the explicitation.

Accessible Abstract: Calibration is an important problem in question answering: if a search engine or virtual assistant doesn't know the answer to a question, you should probably abstain from showing an answer (to save embarassment, as when Google said a horse had six legs). This EMNLP Findings paper shows that existing metrics to test how good a QA calibration push calibrated confidence toward the average confidence. We proposed an alternate method both for evaluation and to generate better calibration by looking how models change as they learn.

Accessible Abstract: When the Covid pandemic it, trivia games moved online. With it came cheating: people tried to quickly Google answers. This is bad for sportsmanship, but a good source of training data for helping teach computers how to find answers. We built an interface to harvest this training data from trivia players, fed these into retrieval-based QA systems, showing that these queries were better than the automatically generated queries used by the current state of the art.

Accessible Abstract: Simultaneous interpretation (where a translation happens word by word before the source sentence is finished) is difficult to evaluate. We created a new evaluation framework based on the following scenario: imagine that you're thrown into a trivia gameshow where you don't know the language. Specifically, it's a game format where you interrupt the question word by word as soon as possible. Our hypothesis is that a monolingual player (who doesn't speak the source language) will be able to do better in the game with a better simultaneous translation system. In this 2022 EMNLP publication, we show that this evaluation is not only cheaper (you just need to translate the answer) but can also detect hallucinations and undertranslations better than existing evaluation methods.

Accessible Abstract: Many AI methods are a black box: input goes in, predictions come out. While there are many AI explanation tools that you can add to these predictions, how do you know if they are any good. In this work presented at EMNLP, if you put a human in front of a AI that's trying to answer questions, our hypothesis is that you can measure how good the underlying explanations are by how much the human's score goes up. This 2022 EMNLP publication not just measures which combinations of explanations are most effective for an individual. We use bandit exploration to quickly figure out what set of explanations best help a specific user.

Accessible Abstract: For computers to answer complicated questions online, they often need to put together multiple pieces of information (Ronald Reagan was both governor of California and an actor in Bedtime for Bonzo). However, existing approaches use the links in Wikipedia to combine these clues. This research helps computers find connected information without using these explicit links.

Accessible Abstract: Topic models help historians, journalists, and analysts make sense of large text collections. But how do you know if you have a good one? The field has settled on using "Automatic Coherence", but this paper argues that maybe that isn't the right choice if you want to actually make real users happy. This paper builds on our 2009 that showed perplexity was not a good evaluation of interpretability for topic models; while the field adopted automatic topic coherence as a result of that 2009 paper, this paper argues that automatic topic coherence is not a good metric for neural topic models (even though it worked for probabilistic topic models).

Accessible Abstract: If you ask who Germany's "Christian Drosten" is, a simple answer is that he's their "Anthony Fauci". We create a system to automatically generate these adaptations, which can help improve cross-cultural understanding and create new training data for tasks like question answering.

Accessible Abstract: Is Tim Cook the same person as Timothy Donald Cook? You might think so, but the way we train computers to answer questions would say they aren't. We show that keeping track of multiple names (and it's really simple) can create better question answering systems. Simply by adding alternate answers mined from knowledge bases, we can improve accuracy 1-2 points on major QA datasets.

Accessible Abstract: The data used to train computer question answering systems have three times as many men as women. This paper examines whether this is a problem for question answering accuracy. After a thorough investigation, we do not find evidence of serious accuracy discrepancies between languages. However, an absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, and we would argue that we need more diverse datasets to better represent the world's population.

Accessible Abstract: Why do we answer questions? Sometimes it's to provide information, which has been the interpretation of the computer science community. But sometimes it's to probe or test intelligence. This paper argues we should think more about that application of question answering and its connection to the foundations of artificial intelligence: The Turing Test. We thus argue that in addition to the long-standing Cranfield paradigm popularized by information retrieval, this paper proposes an alternative "Manchester paradigm" closer to the Turing test, trivia games, and education.

Accessible Abstract: Answering questions sometimes requires tying multiple pieces of information together. Previous datasets have required annotators to explicitly build these reasoning chains (e.g., to answer "where do I know the cop from Die Hard from", you need to figure out that the actor's name is "Reginald VelJohnson" and then find out that he's best known as the dad on Family Matters.). By exploring search queries that get to the right answer, we're able to answer these questions without expensive annotation.

Accessible Abstract: When can we call an AI "intelligent"? Just like humans, a common approach is to ask them a bunch of questions. These questions posed to modern machine learning methods are collected in metrics called leaderboards to monitor progress, but beyond ranking approaches, this does not help us better understand our problems or our systems very well. This paper introduces probabilistic models inspired by psychometric approaches called item response theory models (think year-end standardized tests) to better understand how computers can answer questions and whether we are asking the right questions. This allows researchers to better compare what kinds of questions systems can answer, better compare human and machine ability, and discover problematic questions (e.g., questions that have incorrect answer keys, are vague, or "trick" those trying to answer the questions).

Accessible Abstract: Language technologies sometimes need to be quickly deployed in low-resource languages. For example, in the 2010 Haiti earthquake, researchers used machine learning models to analyze social media and text messages to gain situational awareness. We introduce CLIME, an interactive system that can help in these scenarios: users see which words related to the task the system thinks are similar, corrects the model to push similar words together and dissimilar words apart.

Accessible Abstract: Labeling data is a fundamental bottleneck in machine learning, especially for NLP, due to annotation cost and time. For medical text, obtaining labeled data is challenging because of privacy issues or shortage in expertise. Thus, active learning can be employed to recognize the most relevant examples and then query labels from an oracle. However, developing a strategy for selecting examples to label is non-trivial. Active learning is difficult to use in cold-start; all examples confuse the model because it has not trained on enough data. Fortunately, modern NLP provides an additional source of information: pre-trained language models. In our paper, we propose an active learning strategy called ALPS to find sentences that perplex the language model. We evaluate our approach on sentence classification datasets spanning across different domains. Results show that ALPS is an efficient active learning strategy that is competitive with state-of-the-art approaches.

Accessible Abstract: Computers need to represent words in a computer-readable way. This work talks about how slightly moving these representations for words in different languages to be closer to a small list of translations (like from a dictionary) after doing fancy machine learning works better on downstream tasks (e.g., guessing grammatical category of a word) but hurts on asking the algorithm for translations of unseen words.

Accessible Abstract: This paper reflects on the similarities between trivia competitions and computer question answering research. Modern machine learning requires large, quality datasets. The central thesis of this article argues that the same things that make trivia tournaments good (they're fun, fair, and consistently crown the best trivia players) can also improve question answering datasets. Concretely, we argue that question answering datasets should clearly specify what answers are requested, have systematic policies to deal with natural ambiguity and variation, have authors look at the data (and help others do the same), make sure questions separate the best from the rest, and ensure people can have fun. We draw on the authors' experience in the trivia community (including embarrassing episodes on Jeopardy!) to illustrate our arguments.

Accessible Abstract: Machine learning techniques to detect deception in online communications requires training and evaluation data. However, there is a dearth of data either because of uncertain gold labels or privacy concerns; we create a new, large deception-centered dataset in the online game of Diplomacy. We gathered 17,289 messages from 12 games (each of which took over a month) involving 84 players, the majority of which were unique users. This data was collected with a custom-made bot that allowed us to collect messages and annotations. The user pool was created from scratch: we varied participant demographics across gender, age, nationality, and past game experience. Some of our participants included the former president of the Diplomacy players' association, several top ranked players in the world, a board game shop owner, and scientists. We create machine learning models to detect lies using linguistic, context, and power-dynamic features. Our best model had similar lie detection accuracy to humans.

Accessible Abstract: In the mid 2010s, the Republican party in the United States diverged: mainstream conservatives split from the so-called "tea party" caucus. However, the primary statistical tool for analyzing political factions in legislative bodies (ideal point models) fail to account for these changes. This is because the schism is not fully reflected in voting patterns but rather in how politicians present themselves: thus we need to extend these models to capture not just how politicians vote but also how they frame particular issues. This paper proposes a new model to capture framing differences within a voting block to start explaining the new subcoalitions of the republican caucus.

Accessible Abstract: This paper introduces the application of natural language processing techniques to understand the relationships (and their dissolution) in the game of Diplomacy. This popular board game simulates Europe at the eve of World War I and forces players to work with each other to forge alliances and make plans together. However, the game's setup also encourages players to turn against each other. This paper analyzes whether we can predict these betrayals (we can!) and the linguistic and social phenomena (demands, politeness, and planning) that can predict when a betrayal will happen.

Accessible Abstract: Topic models are a tool that historians and social sciences use to explore large text corpora. But how do you know if you have a good topic model? Before this paper, the consensus was to use held-out likelihood to evaluate if you had a good model. This paper argues that this does not fit how people actually use topic models and proposes new human-centered metrics for evaluating topic models. This method inspired a rethinking of model evaluation and showed that the complexity of a model does not always correspond to what a user might want.
