[Archimedes NLP Theme Meeting] NLP theme flash talks

Dates
2025-03-17 17:30 - 18:30
Venue
Artemidos 1 - Amphitheater

Archimedes NLP Theme Meeting: NLP theme round-table / flash talks, Monday 17 March, 17:30-18:30 (Greek time)

 

Fellows, researchers, interns, and principal investigators of the NLP Theme at Archimedes Unit are discussing their research plans. As an initiative among the different themes of Archimedes Unit; we plant to have a bunch of informal presentations (~5min. each) during which the main idea is for everyone to explain what they do, why they do it (and lose sleep trying to do it) and, if time permits, how they do it. High-level, as accessible as possible, the idea being to learn from one another, share our best practices, work together.

 

Flash-talk titles:

  • "Multiple-choice is not what you need: Evaluating LLM Generations with a long-context Greek Legal Reasoning Benchmark" (Ο. Chlapanis)
  • “Multimodal LLMs for Mental Health Applications” (E. Soufleri)
  • "NLP Approaches to the Analysis and Dating of Ancient Texts" (V. Platanou)
  • "Trustworthiness of Large Language Models in Clinical Applications" (E. Partalidou)
  • "NLP in Low-Data Settings: Low-Resource Languages and Idiomatic Terms" (A. Dimakis)
  • "Simulating Online Discussions via LLM Agents for Moderation" (D. Tsirmpas)
  • "Plutus: Benchmarking Large Language Models in Low-Resource Greek Finance" (T. Papadopoulos)
  • "Large Language Models For Privacy Aware Mental Health Analysis" (D. Karpontinis)
  • "Faithfully grounded biomedical question-answering with uni-modal and multi-modal RAG-LLMs" (G. Moschovis)

 

The order of presentations may differ.
