Northern Kender 🤍💙🤍 branching out to evangelizing HPC specialists. #NeIC2019

updated training data and premium-quality morpho-syntactic parses (thanks, Sebastian Schuster @ ACL 2025 🎡 and Milan Straka) are now available to prospective participants in the CoNLL 2019 shared task on Meaning Representation Parsing (#mrp2019): mrp.nlpl.eu

mtool (The Swiss Army Knife of Meaning Representation): scoring and support software for the CoNLL 2019 Shared Task on Meaning Representation Parsing #MRP2019). pre-release on Microsoft GitHub: github.com/cfmrp/mtool

Meaning representation toolkit now available for #MRP2019 CoNLL 2019 shared task: github.com/cfmrp/mtool (evaluation period: July 8–22, 2019)

Very interesting article about the recent research by Phil Strubell et al on carbon footprint of NLP models, which also includes some opinions by yours truly. technologyreview.com/s/613630/train…

materials from #ACL2019NLP tutorial on ‘graph-based meaning representations’ (with alexander koller and weiwei sun) are available on-line; even if all may seem said and done for now, all feedback will be much appreciated: github.com/cfmrp/tutorial

The slides of "Thirty Musts for Meaning Banking", presented today by Johan Bos at #dmr at #acl2019, are now available here: pmb.let.rug.nl/publications.p…

Congratulations to LTG's مرهف murhaf on successfully defending his PhD dissertation today, with the title "Noun–Noun Compound Analysis: A Holistic Perspective"! mn.uio.no/ifi/forskning/…

it is (almost) finished. schedule of presentations and links to system description papers for CoNLL 2019 shared task on Cross-Framework Meaning Representation Parsing: mrp.nlpl.eu/index.php?page…

Excited to see that the cross-framework (and multilingual) MR parsing shared task will run again next year at CoNLL2020

I don't know if you guys have heard whispers in the dark but another #ParsingTragedy😱 is coming up as part of #IWPT2020 This time it's about Deep Syntax, Enhanced UD and graphs. And no Bert allowed! (just kidding🤣) (Stay tuned for news from Dan Zeman, Gosse Bouma and I)

anyone with a spare ticket for the social event tonight? #EMNLP2019

is there a LaTeX template available for LREC2020 submissions? i see M$ Word and OpenOffice on the conference web site, but doubt i could learn those tools in the remaining two-and-a-half weeks until the submission deadline.

Grateful that my #acl2020nlp theme paper "The Unstoppable Rise of Computational Linguistics in Deep Learning" was accepted. Traces how the nature of language has and will impact neural network architectures, including variable binding in Transformer. arxiv.org/abs/2005.06420

Cross-Framework and Cross-Lingual Meaning Represenation Parsing: AMR, DRG, EDS, PTG, and UCCA—all in a uniform package and evaluation framework. Come play at the CoNLL 2020 shared task, and submit parser outputs by August 10! mrp.nlpl.eu

In case you haven’t heard, the new unit for measuring computation runtime is TPU core years. But, if you missed that memo, since the numbers are already in the hundreds, you may as well get ahead of the game and start quoting your runtimes in TPU core centuries #NLProc
