Meta AI is pleased to invite university faculty to respond to this call for research proposals for data collection using the Dynabench platform. Meta AI encourages creative submissions along the theme of “rethinking benchmarking” that leverage the Dynabench platform, with areas of interest that include, but are not limited to, the following: New tasks or benchmarks that would benefit from having a dynamic (adversarial) component, experiments that examine concrete questions about the human-and-model-in-the-loop paradigm for data collection or evaluation, proposals for moving Dynabench beyond natural language processing and/or beyond the English language. A total of 4 to 8 awards are available, in the range of $15,000 to $55,000 each, including overhead in an amount up to 40% of project costs.
