Previous research on multi-party dialogue generation has predominantly leveraged structural information inherent in dialogues to directly inform the generation process. However, the prevalence of colloquial expressions and incomplete utterances in dialogues often impedes comprehension and weakens...

Large Language Models (LLMs) can perform sentiment analysis via natural language instructions, yet their predictions are highly sensitive to prompt phrasing. Prior work has shown that sentiment is encoded linearly in LLM representations, but the model’s ability to utilize this information remains...

Previous work on cross-document event coreference resolution (CDECR) primarily focused on enhancing semantic coherence between event mentions, largely overlooking the critical aspect of temporal coherence. To address this issue, we propose CohTP, a novel Temporal Cohorence-driven event coreferenc...

Conversational Query Rewriting (CQR) aims to rewrite ambiguous queries to achieve more efficient conversational search. Early studies have predominantly focused on the rewriting in isolation, ignoring the feedback from query rewrite, passage retrieval and response generation in the rewriting proc...

Large reasoning models (LRMs) have achieved strong performance enhancement through scaling test time computation, but due to the inherent limitations of the underlying language models, they still have shortcomings in tasks that require precise computation and extensive knowledge reserves. Tool-In...

Multi-party dialogue discourse parsing aims to identify dependency structures and relation types between utterances in conversations. Previous studies are mostly limited to textual modality or two-party dialogue, failing to meet the multimodal and multi-party settings. In this paper, we construct...
