Happy to share my new paper with Cat Dang Ton and @eollion.bsky.social on how to use generative LLMs for extracting information from textual data (conditionally accepted at Sociological Methods & Research)
Here's a rundown..

Today we had a joint meeting with our group and @demolabs.bsky.social to talk about current projects! We never thought about democracy on Mars - Thanks for the visit!

I'll get straight to the point.
We trained 2 new models. Like BERT, but modern. ModernBERT.
Not some hypey GenAI thing, but a proper workhorse model, for retrieval, classification, etc. Real practical stuff.
It's much faster, more accurate, longer context, and more useful. 🧵

Check out our paper "Network community detection via neural embeddings" led by @skojaku.bsky.social (w Filippo Radicchi and Santo Fortunato)! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
We argue that n2v can encode community structure down to the detectability limit due to its connection to spectral embedding.
