• Abstract: The performance of current supervised AI systems is tightly connected to the availability of annotated datasets. Annotations are usually collected through annotation tools, which are often designed for specific tasks and are difficult to customize. Moreover, existing annotation tools with an active learning mechanism often only support limited use cases. To address these limitations, we present EASE, an Easily-Customized Annotation System Powered by Efficiency Enhancement Mechanisms. \sysname provides modular annotation units for building customized annotation interfaces and also provides multiple back-end options that suggest annotations using (1) multi-task active learning; (2) demographic feature based active learning; (3) a prompt system that can query the API of large language models. We conduct multiple experiments and user studies to evaluate our system's flexibility and effectiveness. Our results show that our system can meet the diverse needs of NLP researchers and significantly accelerate the annotation process.

• DETAIL: Task DEmonsTration Attribution for Interpretable In-context Learning [75.68193159293425]
  In-context learning (ICL) allows transformer-based language models to learn a specific task with a few "task demonstrations" without updating their parameters. We propose an influence function-based attribution technique, DETAIL, that addresses the specific characteristics of ICL. We experimentally prove the wide applicability of DETAIL by showing our attribution scores obtained on white-box models are transferable to black-box models in improving model performance.

• Third-Party Language Model Performance Prediction from Instruction [59.574169249307054]
  Language model-based instruction-following systems have lately shown increasing performance on many benchmark tasks. A user may easily prompt a model with an instruction without any idea of whether the responses should be expected to be accurate. We propose a third party performance prediction framework, where a separate model is trained to predict the metric resulting from evaluating an instruction-following system on a task.

We show how common settings in the literature fit within the framework and discuss its possible uses in practice.
