arXiv:2608. 14649v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present dLLM-SetScore, a training-free method that uses discrete masked-diffusion language models for multi-label text classification.
arXiv:2606. 31718v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Relation extraction (RE) for low-resource languages is typically constrained by the lack of annotated corpora.
arXiv:2608. 10939v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multilingual short-text classification supports operational systems such as content moderation, customer support routing, and intent recognition, yet aggregate evaluation often hides large differences between high-resource and low-resource languages.
The paper compares Complement Naive Bayes (NB) with zero‑shot and few‑shot large language models (LLMs) across a wide range of model sizes and text classification tasks. NB outperforms LLMs when labeled data is available, achieving comparable accuracy to large LLMs while running thousands of samples per second on a CPU. In zero‑data sentiment settings, LLMs still dominate, but NB remains the best choice for resource‑constrained HPC practitioners, and the authors provide a Kubernetes Helm operator to automate model selection.
