1/7 In 1941, Borges imagined an impossible novel that follows all narrative branches at once. Today, we can observe chatbot users exploring narrative possibilities as they repeatedly edit story prompts. In our COLM 2026 paper, we studied this branching exploration via the WildChat dataset. 🧵

Computational approaches to media narrative analysis either miss nuanced storytelling patterns through coarse-grained analysis, or require domain-specific taxonomies that limit scalability. We show joint event and character modeling can address this gap. Details in our #ACL2026 (Main) paper. 🧵1/10

What’s the best way to analyze online discourse on any given topic? Is there a right way to use NLP tools to sift through massive datasets? To find out, we tested several tools across different collaboration settings and report findings in an #ACL2026 (Main) paper: arxiv.org/abs/2408.09030 🧵1/7
Paper Title: Effects of Collaboration on the Performance of Interactive Theme Discovery Systems

Excited to announce that the PolyGloss paper has been accepted to @aclmeeting.bsky.social! Previously, we trained models to help in endangered language documentation workflows by automatically predicting interlinear glosses. But real-world user studies revealed crucial issues...

Our paper was accepted to #COLING! If you work on low-resource MT and have ever found yourself limited to bible data, you might find this interesting.

I won't be at #EMNLP2024, but I have two papers that I'm proud of! "Sonnet or Not, Bot? Poetry Evaluation for Large Models and Datasets" aclanthology.org/2024.finding... "The Empirical Variability of Narrative Perceptions of Social Media Texts" aclanthology.org/2024.emnlp-m...
Figure 1 from the "Sonnet or Not, Bot?" paper. We show an example of the form classification task, in which a poem is assigned to a form like haiku or sonnet.Figure 1 from the StoryPerceptions paper. We show an example of the crowd worker task, in which texts are assigned story or not story labels and then workers answer questions contextualizing their decisions.
