The paper presents a prompt-based method for minimal-edit grammatical error correction (GEC) that reduces overcorrection in large language models (LLMs). It introduces taxonomy-based instructions, batch prompting to regularize overcorrection, and LLM-assisted prompt optimization, achieving an $F_{0.5}$ score of 78.32 on BEA-2019 with Gemini 3.1-Pro. This approach narrows the performance gap to fine-tuned models while avoiding their infrastructure demands.

Causal Edit Serialization (CES) is a framework that enables autoregressive language models to perform revisions—such as insertion, deletion, replacement, copying, and movement—within the same causal token stream. CES uses special pointer tokens paired with predicted source addresses, a lightweight localization head, and dual-index rotary position encoding to localize edits while preserving standard causal attention. Experiments show that CES models can execute complete edits with only a modest increase in clean-text bits per byte, and that post‑training with supervised or reinforcement learning can produce beneficial grammatical error corrections.

The paper introduces FOVEATED, a plug‑and‑play framework that improves atomic‑fact recall in unstructured knowledge editing (UKE) for large language models. By randomly shifting Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) positions during editing, FOVEATED creates focused views of each sentence, counteracting the context‑reliance problem where edited LLMs reproduce passages but fail to recall individual facts. Experiments show consistent gains across five editors, two LLM backbones, and three benchmarks.

The paper introduces a black‑box, inference‑time diagnostic for low‑resource Automatic Post‑Editing (APE) that distinguishes whether poor performance is due to insufficient training data or inconsistent training signals. By varying an edit‑distance penalty and analyzing the resulting TER‑vs‑λ curve and confidence‑based constraint ordering, the authors identify two failure modes—Binary Collapse and Confident Miscalibration—across multiple language pairs. The diagnostic also suggests practical next steps, such as applying a static constraint for immediate accuracy gains, and the authors release new English‑Sinhala and English‑Tamil APE datasets with accompanying code.
