Hello,
I'm Sahethi DG, a third-year undergraduate studying Computer Engineering at
VJTI, Mumbai, India. I have been going through the codebase of ORES for a
few days now, figuring my way and trying to contribute. I am currently
working on some issues and I look forward to being a part of the community
and collaborating on this project.
I was wondering if there was a dedicated Slack or IRC for this project
because I can't seem to find anyone active on Libera Chat. I referred to
the links mentioned in "Get in touch" for ORES here
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/New_Developers, please do send me an invite
if possible.
Best regards,
Sahethi

Information Processing & Management (IP&M) (IF: 6.222)
Special Issue on "Science Behind Neural Language Models"
&
Information Processing & Management Conference 2022 (IP&MC2022)
Thematic Track on "Science Behind Neural Language Models"
Motivation
The last several years showed explosive popularity of neural language models, especially large pre-trained language models based on the transformer architecture. The field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Computational Linguistics (CL) experienced a shift from simple language models such as Bag-of-Words, and word representations like word2vec, or GloVe, to more contextually-aware language models, such as ELMo, or more recently, BERT, or GPT including their improvements and derivatives. The general high performance obtained by BERT-based models in various tasks even convinced Google to apply it as a default backbone in its search engine query expansion module, thus making BERT-based models a mainstream, and a strong baseline in NLP/CL research. The popularity of large pretrained language models also allowed a major growth of companies providing freely available repositories of such models, and, more recently, the founding of Stanford University’s Center for Research on Foundation Models (CRFM).
However, despite the overwhelming popularity, and undeniable performance of large pretrained language models, or “foundation models”, the specific inner-workings of those models have been notoriously difficult to analyze and the causes of - usually unexpected and unreasonable - errors they make, difficult to untangle and mitigate. As the neural language models keep gaining in popularity while expanding into the area of multimodality by incorporating visual and speech information, it has become the more important to thoroughly analyze, fully explain and understand the internal mechanisms of neural language models. In other words, the science behind neural language models needs to be developed.
Aims and scope
With the above background in mind, we propose the following Information Processing & Management Conference 2022 (IP&MC2022) Thematic Track and Information Processing & Management Journal Special Issue on Science Behind Neural Language Models.
The TT/SI will focus on topics deepening the knowledge on how the neural language models work. Therefore, instead of taking up basic topics from the fields of CL and NLP, such as improvement of part-of-speech tagging, or standard sentiment analysis, regardless of whether they apply neural language models in practice, we will focus on promoting research that specifically aims at analyzing and understanding the “bells and whistles” of neural language models, for which the generally perceived science has not been established yet.
Target audience
The TT/SI will aim at the audience of scientists, researchers, scholars, and students performing research on the analysis of pretrained language models, with a specific focus on explainable approaches to language models, analysis of errors such models make, methods for debiasing, detoxification and other methods of improvement of the pretrained language models.
The TT/SI will not accept research on basic NLP/CL topics for which the field has been well established, such as improvement of part-of-speech tagging, sentiment analysis, etc., even if they apply neural language models unless they directly contribute to furthering the understanding and explanation of the inner workings of large scale pretrained language models.
List of Topics

I am pleased to share with you a new proposal for a Wikimedia project: Wikianswers. The project intends to integrate artificial intelligence question-answering systems with a wiki question-and-answer platform.
Like similar projects, users will receive one or more answers to their questions from artificial intelligence question-answering systems, but, unlike other projects, they will subsequently be able to edit those answers, as well as any provided explanations and argumentation, per wiki technology. User-corrected content could later be utilized to retrain the question-answering systems.
The proposed project aims to provide value as a new resource for users and as training data for multiple artificial intelligence systems.
While the proposed project can provide users with answers across various question domains, a scenario of interest to me is that of moral question answering. I hope that this scenario is also of some interest to you.

Thank you for any ideas, comments, questions, or suggestions with which to improve the project proposal. Thank you for taking the time to express your support of or opposition to the proposed new project.

Recent advances in large pre-trained language models have shown that
machines can directly learn large quantities of commonsense knowledge
through self-supervised learning on raw text. However, they still fall
short of human-like understanding capabilities: they make inconsistent
predictions, learn to exploit spurious patterns, and fail to robustly apply
learned knowledge to downstream applications. Consequently, the development
and integration of unpaired, outside knowledge representation sources
remains critically important to provide machine commonsense engines with
scaffolding to learn structured reasoning. We organize this workshop to
encourage discussion of current progress on building machines with
commonsense knowledge and reasoning abilities, with special focus on
commonsense knowledge bases (CSKBs).
*** Topics of Interest ***
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Resources: acquiring commonsense knowledge (from text corpora, images,
videos, pre-trained neural models, etc.); constructing and completing
(semi-)structured CSKBs; consolidating CSKBs under unified schemas.
* Benchmarks: designing challenging tasks and building datasets to evaluate
models' commonsense knowledge and reasoning abilities; designing new
evaluation schemas and metrics for commonsense reasoning tasks,
particularly for open-ended and generative tasks.
* Methods: methods for commonsense reasoning tasks; methods that integrate
CSKBs and neural models; methods that use CSKBs to improve the
interpretability and explainability of neural models for commonsense
reasoning and more.
* Analysis: methods to probe commonsense knowledge from NLP models; methods
to understand reasoning mechanisms of existing methods; methods that
identify limitations of existing methods for AI applications (including but
not limited to NLP, CV and robotics) due to lack of commonsense knowledge.
*** Submission Information ***
Papers should be submitted in OpenReview:
https://openreview.net/group?id=AKBC.ws/2021/Workshop/CSKB.
We solicit two categories of papers:
* Workshop papers: describing new, previously unpublished research in this
field. The submissions should follow the AKBC 2021 style guidelines:
https://github.com/akbc-conference/style-files/blob/master/akbc-latex.zi...
and contain up to 10 pages, excluding references and appendices (which
should be put after references). Submissions will be subject to a
single-blind review process (i.e. they need not be anonymized). Final
versions of accepted papers will be allowed 1 additional page of content so
that reviewer comments can be taken into account.
* Papers on topics relevant to the workshop theme, previously published at
NLP or ML conferences. These papers can be submitted in their original
format. Submissions will be reviewed for fit to the workshop topics.
In both categories, accepted papers will be published on the workshop
website (note that the workshop is non-archival), and will be presented at
the workshop either as a talk or a poster.
*** Important Dates ***
* All paper submissions due – August 5, 2021
* Notification of acceptance – Sep 10, 2021
* Camera-ready papers due – September 30, 2021
* Workshop – October 7, 2021
