Sentence Splitter: Uncovering Latent Factual Structure for Self-Supervised Learning

This paper introduces Sentence Splitter, a self-supervised framework built upon a T5-based encoder--decoder architecture for uncovering the latent factual structure of natural language sentences. The proposed method identifies the semantic boundary between a descriptive prefix (head) and its factual completion (tail) by formulating sentence splitting as a discrete segmentation problem, where a sentence of length $N$ admits $N$ possible split points but only one recovers the intended head--tail structure.

Learning Concepts, Not Tokens: Self-Supervised Semantic Alignment for Language Models

The paper proposes a self‑supervised framework that trains language models to predict concepts—sets of semantically equivalent tokens—rather than single tokens. This approach improves alignment with human similarity judgments, boosts performance on classification, clustering, and reranking tasks, and yields comparable or stronger downstream reasoning while lowering perplexity on semantically meaningful words and only slightly increasing overall perplexity.
