When questions are poorly posed, how do humans vs. models handle them? Our #ACL2025 paper explores this + introduces a framework for detecting and analyzing poorly-posed information-seeking questions!

Joint work with @boydgraber & @rachelrudinger!

I'll be presenting this work with @rachelrudinger at #NAACL2025 tomorrow (Wednesday 4/30) during Session C (Oral/Poster 2) at 2pm! 🔬

Decomposing hypotheses in traditional NLI and defeasible NLI helps us measure various forms of consistency of LLMs. Come join us!

Presenting this today with @rupak_53 (co-first author) at #NAACL2024 Poster Session 2 @ 2pm✨

We show that considering false presuppositions and implicatures can make answers about maternal health questions much more complete!

Postering today at #NAACL2024 🇲🇽 with @nehasrikanth: Pragmatic Awareness in Maternal Health QA

When humans ask questions that explicitly or implicitly signal false beliefs, an expert answer will likely start by correcting that belief. But to what extent do QA systems do that?
