The research team of professor Kyomin Jung (SNU Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering & Interdisciplinary Program in Artificial Intelligence) gets to present 6 papers (Main: 4, Findings: 2) in EMNLP 2023, one of the most acknowledged natural language processing (NLP) conferences. EMNLP is the most significant conference in the field of NLP along with ACL, with an acceptance rate of 22.1% for the main category and 14.0% for the findings category. Professor Jung’s research team also had announced 3 papers in ACL 2023, too, last July.

Accepted papers cover methodologies on solving problems and building datasets for various topics on NLP such as conversational models, QA systems, and generation models. Such achievements were made by cooperating with a variety of domestic & international corporations such as LG AI Research, NAVER, Microsoft Research Asia, and US Adobe Research.
