### 2020s

[**2023** 1 paper SemEval-2023 Task 11: Learning with Disagreements (LeWiDi)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/leonardelli-2023-semeval-2023-task-11-learning/) · [**2021** 2 papers Tommaso Fornaciari's papers of 2021](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tommaso-fornaciari/year/2021/)

## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[We Need to Consider Disagreement in Evaluation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/basile-2021-we-need-consider-disagreement-evaluation/)** *(2021 · 185 citations)* This position paper questions the usual NLP practice of scoring predictions against a single aggregated "gold standard." The authors argue that this assumption breaks down because many items allow several valid labels and because annotators often disagree.
2. **[Beyond Black & White: Leveraging Annotator Disagreement via Soft-Label Multi-Task Learning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/fornaciari-2021-beyond-black-white-leveraging-annotator/)** *(2021 · 143 citations)* Supervised NLP models usually train against a single "correct" label per item, even though human annotators often disagree.
3. **[SemEval-2023 Task 11: Learning with Disagreements (LeWiDi)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/leonardelli-2023-semeval-2023-task-11-learning/)** *(2023 · 100 citations)* Annotators of subjective NLP tasks such as hate speech or offensiveness detection often disagree, and merging their labels into one "gold" answer misrepresents the data.
