MBZUAI · Invalid Date

MBZUAI researchers received high honors at EMNLP 2025 for two research papers, placing them in the top 2% of accepted work. One paper, MAviS, is a multimodal AI system that identifies bird species by combining images, sounds, and text. The other award-winning paper focuses on uncertainty in LLM-as-a-Judge. Why it matters: The recognition highlights MBZUAI's growing influence in NLP and multimodal AI research, particularly in domain-specific applications like biodiversity conservation.

Fine-grained species recognition with MAviS: a new dataset, benchmark, and model

MBZUAI · Invalid Date

MBZUAI researchers have developed MAviS, a new multimodal dataset, benchmark, and chatbot for fine-grained bird species recognition. MAviS includes images, audio, and text to help models identify subtle differences between species, especially rare and regional varieties. The related study was presented at EMNLP 2025 and selected as a "Senior Area Chair Highlight". Why it matters: This work addresses a key limitation in AI's ability to support biodiversity conservation and ecological monitoring in the region and globally.
