• Abstract: This paper presents the development of an AI-based language learning platform Revita. It is a freely available intelligent online tutor, developed to support learners of multiple languages, from low-intermediate to advanced levels. It has been in pilot use by hundreds of students at several universities, whose feedback and needs are shaping the development. One of the main emerging features of Revita is the introduction of a system of linguistic constructs as the representation of domain knowledge. The system of constructs is developed in close collaboration with experts in language teaching. Constructs define the types of exercises, the content of the feedback, and enable the detailed modeling and evaluation of learning progress.

  We introduce agent symbolic learning, a systematic framework that enables language agents to optimize themselves on their own. Agent symbolic learning is designed to optimize the symbolic network within language agents by mimicking two fundamental algorithms in connectionist learning. We conduct proof-of-concept experiments on both standard benchmarks and complex real-world tasks.

  We introduce SUTRA, a multilingual Large Language Model architecture capable of understanding, reasoning, and generating text in over 50 languages. Through extensive evaluations, SUTRA is demonstrated to surpass existing models like GPT-3.5, Llama2 by 20-30% on leading Massive Multitask Language Understanding (MMLU) benchmarks. Our findings suggest that SUTRA not only fills pivotal gaps in multilingual model capabilities but also establishes a new benchmark for operational efficiency and scalability in AI applications.

• Scaffolding Language Learning via Multi-modal Tutoring Systems with Pedagogical Instructions [34.760230622675365]
  Intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) imitate human tutors and aim to provide customized instructions or feedback to learners. With the emergence of generative artificial intelligence, large language models (LLMs) entitle the systems to complex and coherent conversational interactions. We investigate how pedagogical instructions facilitate the scaffolding in ITSs, by conducting a case study on guiding children to describe images for language learning.

• Learning to Model the World with Language [100.76069091703505]
  To interact with humans and act in the world, agents need to understand the range of language that people use and relate it to the visual world. Our key idea is that agents should interpret such diverse language as a signal that helps them predict the future. We instantiate this in Dynalang, an agent that learns a multimodal world model to predict future text and image representations.

• On the cross-lingual transferability of multilingual prototypical models across NLU tasks [2.44288434255221]
  Supervised deep learning-based approaches have been applied to task-oriented dialog and have proven to be effective for limited domain and language applications. In practice, these approaches suffer from the drawbacks of domain-driven design and under-resourced languages. This article proposes to investigate the cross-lingual transferability of using synergistically few-shot learning with prototypical neural networks and multilingual Transformers-based models.
