Adobe Research at EMNLP 2021

November 8, 2021

Tags: Conferences, Natural Language Processing

In this EMNLP 2021 paper, the authors developed a new summarization model using deep neural networks that produce relevant sentence representations, which the model then uses to select which sentences to include in the output summary.

The Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP 2021) will be held from November 7 to 11, 2021 as a hybrid event in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, with both on-site and fully virtual participation. EMNLP is one of the top research conferences on natural language processing. In recent years, deep learning approaches have made a significant impact at this conference.

There are nine Adobe co-authored papers at EMNLP 2021 on research topics ranging from question answering, image captioning, summarization, authoring assistants, event understanding, and much more. 

Many of the accepted papers are the outcome of research internships. Please check out the Adobe Research Careers website to learn more about internships and full-time career opportunities.
