arXiv:2605. 02608v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformer-based models achieve state-of-the-art dependency parsing for high-resource languages, yet their advantage over simpler architectures in low-resource settings remains poorly understood.

arXiv:2608. 06111v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Positional embeddings (PE) in Transformers encode token distance and order but are largely agnostic to \textit{syntactic structure}.

arXiv:2606. 27793v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context language models suffer from position bias, where information in middle positions is underutilized.

arXiv:2607. 18570v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Discourse relations provide document structure, critical to language understanding and enabling language model performance and ethicality.

arXiv:2606. 16753v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As Large Language Models (LLMs) become embedded in everyday communication, capturing regional linguistic variation is essential for reliable and equitable language use.

arXiv:2606. 26079v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Standard benchmarks for multimodal large language models (MLLMs) score each item on one canonical ordering and miss whether order-irrelevant shuffling changes the answer, a baseline reliability property called for by emerging AI evaluation guidelines.
