Binning is Sinning: Redemption for Hubble Diagram using Photometrically Classified Type Ia Supernovae

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Kessler | First 5 Authors: Richard Kessler, Maria Vincenzi, Patrick Armstrong, , | Summary: Bayesian Estimation Applied to Multiple Species (BEAMS) is implemented in the BEAMS with Bias Corrections (BBC) framework to produce a redshift-binned Hubble diagram (HD) for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). BBC corrects for selection effects and non-SNIa contamination, […]

Early Rumor Detection Using Neural Hawkes Process with a New Benchmark Dataset

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Fengzhu Zeng, Wei Gao, , , | Summary: Little attention has been paid on underline{EA}rly underline{R}umor underline{D}etection (EARD), and EARD performance was evaluated inappropriately on a few datasets where the actual early-stage information is largely missing. To reverse such situation, we construct BEARD, a new underline{B}enchmark dataset […]

Prompt to be Consistent is Better than Self-Consistent? Few-Shot and Zero-Shot Fact Verification with Pre-trained Language Models

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Fengzhu Zeng, Wei Gao, , , | Summary: Few-shot or zero-shot fact verification only relies on a few or no labeled training examples. In this paper, we propose a novel method called ProToCo, to underline{Pro}mpt pre-trained language models (PLMs) underline{To} be underline{Co}nsistent, for improving the factuality assessment […]
