  • A Demo of FORGe: the Pompeu Fabra open rule-based generator
    Mille, Simon; Wanner, Leo (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2017)
    This demo paper presents the multilingual deep sentence generator developed by the TALN group at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, implemented as a series of rule-based graphtransducers.
  • Assessing the syntactic capabilities of transformer-based multilingual language models
    Pérez-Mayos, Laura; Táboas García, Alba; Mille, Simon; Wanner, Leo (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2021)
    Multilingual Transformer-based language models, usually pretrained on more than 100 languages, have been shown to achieve outstanding results in a wide range of crosslingual transfer tasks. However, it remains unknown ...
  • Data-driven deep-syntactic dependency parsing
    Ballesteros, Miguel; Bohnet, Bernd; Mille, Simon; Wanner, Leo (Cambridge University Press, 2016)
    ‘Deep-syntactic’ dependency structures that capture the argumentative, attributive and co-/nordinative relations between full words of a sentence have a great potential for a number/nof NLP-applications. The abstraction ...
  • Data-driven sentence generation with non-isomorphic trees
    Ballesteros, Miguel; Bohnet, Bernd; Mille, Simon; Wanner, Leo (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2015)
    Abstract structures from which the generation naturally starts often do not contain any functional nodes, while surface-syntactic structures or a chain of tokens in a linearized tree contain all of them. Therefore, data-driven ...
  • Deep stochastic sentence generation : resources and strategies
    Mille, Simon (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2014-07-25)
    The present Ph.D. thesis addresses the problem of deep data-driven Natural Language Generation (NLG), and in particular the role of proper corpus annotation schemata for stochastic sentence realization. The lack of multilevel ...
  • Design of knowledge-based agent as a social companion
    Wanner, Leo; André, Elisabeth; Blat, Josep; Dasiopoulou, Stamatia; Farrús, Mireia; Fraga, Thiago; Kamateri, Eleni; Lingenfelser, Florian; Llorach, Gerard; Martínez, Oriol; Meditskos, Georgios; Mille, Simon; Minker, Wolfgang; Pragst, Louisa; Schiller, Dominik; Stam, Andries; Stellingwerff, Ludo; Sukno, Federico Mateo; Vieru, Bianca; Vrochidis, Stefanos (Elsevier, 2017)
    We present work in progress on an intelligent embodied conversation agent that is supposed to act as a social companion with linguistic and emotional competence in the context of basic and health care. The core of the agent ...
  • FORGe at E2E 2017
    Mille, Simon; Dasiopoulou, Stamatia (2017)
    This paper describes the FORGe generator at WebNLG. The input DBpedia triples are mapped onto sentences by applying a series of rule-based graph-transducers and aggregation grammars to template predicate-argument structures ...
  • FORGe at SemEval-2017 Task 9: deep sentence generation based on a sequence of graph transducers
    Mille, Simon; Carlini, Roberto; Burga Díaz, Alicia; Wanner, Leo (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2017)
    We present the contribution of Universitat Pompeu Fabra’s NLP group to the Sem-Eval Task 9.2 (AMR-to-English Generation). The proposed generation pipeline comprises: (i) a series of rule-based graphtransducers for the ...
  • FORGe at WebNLG 2017
    Mille, Simon; Dasiopoulou, Stamatia (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2017)
    This paper describes the FORGe generator at E2E. The input triples are mapped onto sentences by applying a series of rule-based graph-transducers and aggregation grammars to template predicate-argument structures associated ...
  • KRISTINA: a knowledge-based virtual conversation agent
    Wanner, Leo; André, Elisabeth; Blat, Josep; Dasiopoulou, Stamatia; Farrús, Mireia; Kamateri, Eleni; Lingenfelser, Florian; Llorach, Gerard; Martínez, Oriol; Meditskos, Georgios; Mille, Simon; Minker, Wolfgang; Pragst, Louisa; Schiller, Dominik; Stam, Andries; Stellingwerff, Ludo; Sukno, Federico Mateo; Vieru, Bianca; Vrochidis, Stefanos (Springer, 2017)
    We present an intelligent embodied conversation agent with linguistic, social and emotional competence. Unlike the vast majority of the state-of-the-art conversation agents, the proposed agent is constructed around an ...
  • Perspective-oriented generation of football match summaries: Old tasks, new challenges
    Bouayad-Agha, Nadjet; Casamayor, Gerard; Mille, Simon; Wanner, Leo (ACM Association for Computer Machinery, 2012)
    Team sports commentaries call for techniques that are able to select content and generate wordings to reflect the affinity of the targeted reader for one of the teams. The existing works tend to have in common that they ...
  • Towards a multimedia knowledge-based agent with social competence and human interaction capabilities
    Wanner, Leo; Blat, Josep; Dasiopoulou, Stamatia; Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Llorach, Gerard; Mille, Simon; Sukno, Federico Mateo; Kamateri, Eleni; Kompatsiaris, Ioannis; Vrochidis, Stefanos; André, Elisabeth; Lingenfelser, Florian; Mehlmann, Gregor; Stam, Andries; Stellingwerff, Ludo; Lamel, Lori; Vieru, Bianca; Minker, Wolfgang; Pragst, Louisa; Ultes, Stefan (ACM Association for Computer Machinery, 2016)
    We present work in progress on an intelligent embodied conversation agent in the basic care and healthcare domain. In contrast to most of the existing agents, the presented agent is aimed to have linguistic cultural, social ...
  • UPF at EPE 2017: transduction-based deep analysis
    Mille, Simon; Latorre, Iván; Wanner, Leo (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2017)
    This paper describes the runs submitted to EPE 2017 by Universitat Pompeu Fabra. The three outputs correspond to three different levels of linguistic abstraction: (i) a surface-syntactic tree, (ii) a deep-syntactic tree, ...
  • Using genre-specific features for patent summaries
    Codina Filbà, Joan; Bouayad-Agha, Nadjet; Burga Díaz, Alicia; Casamayor, Gerard; Mille, Simon; Müller, Andreas; Saggion, Horacio; Wanner, Leo (Elsevier, 2016)
    Patent search is recall-driven, which goes hand in hand with at least a partial sacrifice of precision. As a consequence, patent analysts have to regularly view and examine a large amount of patents. This implies a very ...
  • Visualizing deep-syntactic parser output
    Soler Company, Juan; Ballesteros, Miguel; Bohnet, Bernd; Mille, Simon; Wanner, Leo (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2015)
    “Deep-syntactic” dependency structures bridge the gap between the surface-syntactic structures as produced by state-of-the-art dependency parsers and semantic logical forms in that they abstract away from surfacesyntactic ...
