Excited to share that our paper on KID-VLM has been accepted to #ACL2025 Findings! 🎉

This work is a nice addition to a growing but still underexplored area of #NeurosymbolicAI approaches for complex social issues 🧩. We believe these methods will provide significant advances in both prediction and generation tasks, especially where nuance and context matter.

Our work develops a #NeurosymbolicAI approach, KID-VLM, that combines the #LVLMs and commonsense #KnowledgeGraphs to detect subtle and context-rich cues of #OnlineToxicity.

#OnlineToxicity often disguises itself behind sarcasm, dark humor, and cultural nuance. Our approach bridges the gap between implicit signals in neural models and explicit reasoning through symbolic knowledge, improving recall, accuracy, and interpretability.

Thanks to our amazing team for pushing this forward, and to the ACL community for recognizing this effort!

President Ronald Reagan’s thoughts on tariffs:

[NAMI @NAMICommunicate]

NAMI is deeply concerned by the Administration's plan to reorganize @HHSGov — disrupting the bipartisan progress we've made to address America’s mental health, suicide, and substance use crises.

We must ensure that HHS and @samhsagov staff can continue their critical work during a time when it is desperately needed.

Have you ever received mental health training at work? The new NAMI/@ipsosus poll about workplace mental health shows that when employees get training about mental health, they feel more comfortable talking about mental health concerns at work. Using tools like training to reduce stigma around mental health is crucial!
