In recent years, text-aware collaborative filtering methods have been proposed to address essential challenges in recommendations such as data sparsity, cold start problem, and long-tail distribution. However, many of these text-oriented…
Large text corpora, such as Reddit posts, have become an increasingly prevalent site of qualitative inquiry. However, most large text corpora are intractable for qualitative researchers. Instead, teams rely on statistical subsampling to…
Most text-to-image customization techniques fine-tune models on a small set of \emph{personal concept} images captured in minimal contexts. This often results in the model becoming overfitted to these training images and unable to…
Content generation conditioning on users's readability is an important application for personalization. In an era of large language models (LLMs), readability-controlled text generation based on LLMs has become increasingly important. This…
Language models can be used to provide interactive, personalized student feedback in educational settings. However, real-world deployment faces three key challenges: privacy concerns, limited computational resources, and the need for…
We propose the task of emotion style transfer, which is particularly challenging, as emotions (here: anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, surprise) are on the fence between content and style. To understand the particular difficulties of this…
Textual content is often the output of a collaborative writing process: We start with an initial draft, ask for suggestions, and repeatedly make changes. Agnostic of this process, today's language models are trained to generate only the…
Despite the rapid adoption of text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models, causal and representation-level analysis remains fragmented and largely limited to isolated probing techniques. To address this gap, we introduce DreamReader: a unified…
Topic modeling is commonly used to analyze and understand large document collections. However, in practice, users want to focus on specific aspects or "targets" rather than the entire corpus. For example, given a large collection of…
In recent years, substantial research efforts have been devoted to enhancing sequential recommender systems by integrating abundant side information with ID-based collaborative information. This study specifically focuses on leveraging the…
Personalised text generation is essential for user-centric information systems, yet most evaluation methods overlook the individuality of users. We introduce \textbf{PREF}, a \textbf{P}ersonalised \textbf{R}eference-free \textbf{E}valuation…
Dyslexia, a neurological condition affecting approximately 12% of the global population, presents significant challenges to reading ability and quality of life. Existing assistive technologies are limited by factors such as unsuitability…
The creation of systematic literature reviews (SLR) is critical for analyzing the landscape of a research field and guiding future research directions. However, retrieving and filtering the literature corpus for an SLR is highly…
READMEs shape first impressions of software projects, yet what constitutes a good README varies across audiences and contexts. Research software needs reproducibility details, while open-source libraries might prioritize quick-start guides.…
The growing volume of academic publications poses significant challenges for researchers conducting timely and accurate Systematic Literature Reviews, particularly in fast-evolving fields like artificial intelligence. This growth of…
User-generated content platforms curate their vast repositories into thematic compilations that facilitate the discovery of high-quality material. Platforms that seek tight editorial control employ people to do this curation, but this…
Personalized learning has gained attention in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education, where engagement and motivation play crucial roles in reading comprehension. We propose a novel approach to generating personalized English reading…
Generative AI has demonstrated strong potential in healthcare, from clinical decision support to patient-facing chatbots that improve outcomes. A critical challenge for deployment is effective human-AI communication, where content must be…
Topic modelling has become increasingly popular for summarizing text data, such as social media posts and articles. However, topic modelling is usually completed in one shot. Assessing the quality of resulting topics is challenging. No…
Readability refers to how easily a reader can understand a written text. Several factors affect the readability level, such as the complexity of the text, its subject matter, and the reader's background knowledge. Generating summaries based…
