✈️2026 starts with with a visiting at the Institute for Natural Language Processing @ims-stuttgart.bsky.social invited by Sabine Schulte im Walde and her group. I’ll be giving a talk titled Analogy in Language Processing: A Constructionist and Computational Approach to Productivity 🎓

Natural Language Processing How do you build Large Language Models? How do humans experience Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications in their daily lives? And how can we...

👀 Look what 🎅 has broght just before Christmas 🎁: a brand new Research Master in Natural Language Processing at @facultyofartsug.bsky.social @rug.nl

Program: www.rug.nl/masters/natu...

Applications (2026/2027) are open! Come and study with us (you will also learn why we have a 🐮 in our logo)

Cognitive Modeling and Computational Linguistics (CMCL) workshop will be co-located with LREC 2026 in Palma, Mallorca!🌴Stay tuned for more details!✨

Seeing this slide after completing my postdoc at @abstractionerc.bsky.social makes me emotional. Great talk of @mariannabolog.bsky.social at the workshop "Large and Small Language Models: stato dell’arte fra limiti e prospettive" at Unibo. Many works about abstraction and LLM are on the horizon! :)

See you online in 15 minutes :)

I'll be here today! ↴

📢 This Wed, Nov 19 (10–11:30 AM MT|6PM CET), I’ll be giving a Syntax–Semantics talk at CU Boulder!

Title: Analogy in Language Processing
I’ll discuss how humans + LLMs interpret novel noun–noun compounds, and what this reveals about analogy as a driver of linguistic productivity.

Join us (link ⤵️)📚

Unfortunately, I will not attend #EMNLP2025, but you MUST pass by our poster! @tommasoc80.bsky.social will be there explaining our work "Simulating Identity, Propagating Bias: Abstraction and Stereotypes in LLM-Generated Text" with @piasommerauer.bsky.social @emnlpmeeting.bsky.social

Evidence that even when LLMs produce similar results to humans, they “rely on lexical associations and statistical priors rather than contextual reasoning or normative criteria. We term this divergence epistemia: the illusion of knowledge emerging when surface plausibility replaces verification”

Another academic year at @abstractionerc.bsky.social starts with the seminar of prof. Filippo Domaneschi with his talk "Concretely offensive: the processing of reclaimed slurs". Recordings of the talk will be posted here:

Filippo Domaneschi, director of the Lab of Language and Cognition presenting at @abstractionerc.bsky.social on the reclamation of slurs, discussing pragmatic and psycholinguistic aspects in relation to abstraction mechanisms

✈️ Heading to Düsseldorf for the 2nd #CxGsNLP Workshop at #IWCS2025!
I’ll present a non-archival paper from #ACL2024 + some follow-ups on how LLMs interpret existing and novel compounds.
Excited for the discussions and meeting the vibrant community! On a mission for @abstractionerc.bsky.social

@abstractionerc.bsky.social

Just gave my talk “How Analogy Drives Language Comprehension: The Case of Novel Compounds Interpretation” 🤔🥑🤖

Explored how L1, L2 speakers & LLMs interpret brand-new compounds- L2+LLMs leaning on compositionality, L1 speakers often rely on analogy.

Presented at the #Analogy workshop, #SLE2025 ✨

Starting now the workshop on Towards a better understanding of #analogy at #SLE2025 !

Excited to be at #SLE2025 this week!

Presented 🗣️ two studies:

🔹 Iconicity ratings for Italian language across L1 & L2 speakers

🔹 Ambiguity of generality in a fantastic workshop on "Lexical Ambiguity in the Mind"

Appreciated the feedback & discussions!

Abstraction and generalization are 🔥 topics in any linguistic and NLP conference.. and @abstractionerc.bsky.social team is always there to capture the moment! #SLE2025

Now attending the PLENARY SESSION at #SLE2025 in Bordeaux 🇫🇷
@dagmardivjak.bsky.social & @petarmilin.bsky.social: Top-down wisdom versus bottom-up noise: can data (ever) replace linguistic expertise?

Excited to hear their insights! #linguistics #conference

Here we are at #SLE2025 in Bordeaux! @tomlamarra.bsky.social

@abstractionerc.bsky.social

I will end my postdoc with my first #EMNLP paper! So honored to work with such amazing researchers (and people!)

✈️ Off to Bordeaux for #SLE2025!
On Friday I’ll present “How Analogy Drives Language Comprehension: The Case of Novel Compounds Interpretation” (a study on humans and LLMs) at the workshop Towards a better understanding of #analogy.

Excited for talks, discussions & some Bordeaux-buzz 🍷

Now @melaniemitchell.bsky.social talking about analogy making in humans and AI ! Room 1.34 #ACL2025 @aclmeeting.bsky.social

First session is ending, and it is amazing the different approaches, theories, topics proposed by the authors. Have a quick cup of ☕️ and join us for our keynote speaker @KatiaShutova talking about metaphors, politics & humor. #analogy #ACL2025 @piasommerauer.bsky.social @mariannabolog.bsky.social

Analogy-angle II just started in room 1.34 at #ACL2025. If you're interest in analogy, pass by! #NLProc @aclmeeting.bsky.social Filip Ilievski @piasommerauer.bsky.social @mariannabolog.bsky.social Ute Schmid

About last night at #ACL2025 social dinner! @mariannabolog.bsky.social showed its walzer abilities on the dance floor💃 Always grateful to be part of this community 🙏

Day 2 of @aclmeeting.bsky.social starts with the keynote talk of @verenarieser.bsky.social . @abstractionerc.bsky.social representation is in row 5! @mariannabolog.bsky.social
