🇦🇹I'll be at #ACL2025! Recently I've been thinking about:
✨linguistically + cognitively-motivated evals (as always!)
✨understanding multilingualism + representation learning (new!)
I'll also be presenting a poster for BehaviorBox on Wed @ Poster Session 4 (Hall 4/5, 10-11:30)!

@aclmeeting in Vienna 🇦🇹 to present our latest work at both the main conference and workshops!
If you're interested in multilingual NLP, human-inspired interpretability of LLMs, or related topics, feel free to stop by and say hi 👋
“Child-Directed Language Does Not Consistently Boost Syntax Learning in Language Models”
I’m happy to share that the preprint of my first PhD project is now online!
🎊 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2505.23689
Bavarian dialect speakers needed! Our MSc student Miriam wants to find out 1. how good/bad LLM-generated "Bavarian" is, and 2. whether dialect speakers agree with each other on this. The survey takes <5 min: survey.ifkw.lmu.de/dialquali25/ Thank you for sharing/participating!
📣 Call for Paper Alert: TokShop @ ICML 2025
TokShop explores tokenization across all data modalities. Topics include: subword NLP techniques, multimodal approaches, multilingual challenges, post-training modification, alternative representations, and statistical perspectives.
Call for Papers, Interplay Workshop at COLM: June 23rd - submissions due. July 24th - acceptance notification. October 10th - workshop day.
Are LM more than their behavior?
Join our @colmweb.org workshop and explore the interplay between what LMs answer and what happens internally ✨
See you in Montréal 🍁

Welcome to the First Workshop on Bridging NLP and Public Opinion Research, co-located with COLM 2025, October 10, 2025, Montreal, Canada.
🛎️ Excited to announce the 1st Workshop on Bridging NLP and Public Opinion Research at COLM 2025, Oct 10th in Montreal 🇨🇦
As LLMs reshape public discourse and research, collaboration between NLP and Public Opinion Research (POR) is more vital than ever #NLPOR Submit by June 23📄

COMPS is a valuable dataset for exploring language models' concept understanding. We deeply appreciate your acknowledgment and credit to our XCOMPS work! 🙏
COMPS is a fantastic work for evaluating concept understanding (EACL 2023 best paper). Now, we aim to extend it to 17 languages for exploring multilingual concept understanding (with minimal pair probing). Check our latest findings.
