SimpCue: Cue-Based Prompting for Multilingual Text Simplification

Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →

The paper introduces SimpCue, a cue-based prompting approach for multilingual text simplification in Catalan, Spanish, and Italian. It compares three prompting strategies—baseline, gold-cue (with gold linguistic cues), and predicted-cue (with automatically predicted cues)—using the Qwen3-8B model. Results show that predicted-cue prompting yields the best overall scores across SARI, BLEU, chrF, and BERTScore, though gains over the baseline are modest and vary by language.

From Script to Semantics: Prompting Strategies for African NLI

arXiv:2606. 03304v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly evaluated in multilingual settings, yet their inference behavior in low-resource African languages remains underexplored especially under pure prompting without fine-tuning.

From Script to Semantics: Prompting Strategies for African NLI

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly evaluated in multilingual settings, yet their inference behavior in low-resource African languages remains underexplored especially under pure prompting without fine-tuning. We present a systematic study of prompting strategies for Natural Language Inference (NLI) in Swahili, Yoruba, and Hausa using the AfriXNLI benchmark.

Large Language Models for Code Generation from Multilingual Prompts: A Curated Benchmark and a Study on Code Quality

Large Language Models (LLMs) perform differently on identical programming tasks when prompted in different natural languages, a phenomenon known as language bias. While this behavior has been widely studied for general text generation, its impact on code generation quality and programming conventions remains largely unexplored.

Inference-Time Steering for Cross-Lingual Factual Consistency in LLMs

arXiv:2607. 19243v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable multilingual fluency, their internal knowledge representations remain disproportionately biased toward high-resource languages.
