I'll give a talk this Thursday at 5:45 at Universität zu Köln: "Adapting Language Models for the Analysis of Real World Textual Data – Train the model, change the prompt, or adapt the data?" – the talk is based on aclanthology.org/2025.coling-... and arxiv.org/abs/2412.11653 #NLProc

Is In-Context Learning (ICL) in LLMs Memorisation? Emergence? Some Algorithmic Capability? 🤔

📢New work exploring ICL in LLMs: arxiv.org/abs/2505.11004

💡Key Finding:
ICL capabilities are linked to token frequency 🤨

Strap in for the unexpected 🤯

Someone from U Zurich did an undisclosed persuasion experiment on Reddit users in r/ChangeMyView using #LLM bots. This kind of social media research is absolutely unethical and the "results" should not be published.
Additional shame on the ethics committee for arguing *for* publication. In my view, this is outrageous scientific misconduct. #nlproc #academia #ethics #socialMedia

I don't know exactly how to search for this tool so I'm looking for leads on the tool and/or search terms (so I don't have to make it myself):

I'll often read a #NLP #NLProc paper and they provide a few metrics (e.g. Precision/Recall) but not the same metrics (e.g., Specificity/Sensitivity) as that other paper on the same topic that I'm reading. Then I need to figure out if I can estimate the True Positive, False Positive, etc. counts from the provided metrics to generate the other paper metrics for direct comparison.

When I'm really invested, I'll set up a spreadsheet to let me twiddle the TP/FP counts to try to keep the reported measures fixed to see how much range there is for the unreported measures.

Is there an easier way to do this? Let's say I have Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, and the rough estimate of the total count of notes. Is there a shiny dashboard or website that I can plug those numbers in to get an estimate on the range of possible precision scores with those constraints?
