Barriers and enabling factors for error analysis in NLG research (2023)
Journal Article
Van Miltenburg, E., Clinciu, M., Dušek, O., Gkatzia, D., Inglis, S., Leppänen, L., …Wen, L. (2023). Barriers and enabling factors for error analysis in NLG research. Northern European Journal of Language Technology, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.3384/nejlt.2000-1533.2023.4529

Earlier research has shown that few studies in Natural Language Generation (NLG) evaluate their system outputs using an error analysis, despite known limitations of automatic evaluation metrics and human ratings. This position paper takes the stance... Read More about Barriers and enabling factors for error analysis in NLG research.

Generating Unambiguous and Diverse Referring Expressions   (2020)
Journal Article
Panagiaris, N., Hart, E., & Gkatzia, D. (2021). Generating Unambiguous and Diverse Referring Expressions  . Computer Speech and Language, 68, Article 101184. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.csl.2020.101184

Neural Referring Expression Generation (REG) models have shown promising results in generating expressions which uniquely describe visual objects. However, current REG models still lack the ability to produce diverse and unambiguous referring express... Read More about Generating Unambiguous and Diverse Referring Expressions  .

Monitoring Users’ Behavior: Anti-Immigration Speech Detection on Twitter (2020)
Journal Article
Pitropakis, N., Kokot, K., Gkatzia, D., Ludwiniak, R., Mylonas, A., & Kandias, M. (2020). Monitoring Users’ Behavior: Anti-Immigration Speech Detection on Twitter. Machine Learning and Knowledge Extraction, 2(3), 192-215. https://doi.org/10.3390/make2030011

The proliferation of social media platforms changed the way people interact online. However, engagement with social media comes with a price, the users’ privacy. Breaches of users’ privacy, such as the Cambridge Analytica scandal, can reveal how the... Read More about Monitoring Users’ Behavior: Anti-Immigration Speech Detection on Twitter.

Data-to-Text Generation Improves Decision-Making Under Uncertainty (2017)
Journal Article
Gkatzia, D., Lemon, O., & Rieser, V. (2017). Data-to-Text Generation Improves Decision-Making Under Uncertainty. IEEE Computational Intelligence Magazine, 12(3), 10-17. https://doi.org/10.1109/MCI.2017.2708998

Decision-making is often dependent on uncertain data, e.g. data associated with confidence scores or probabilities. This article presents a comparison of different information presentations for uncertain data and, for the first time, measures their e...
