Classical and neural NLP: translation, question answering, tokenization and the evaluation of language understanding.
arXiv:2608. 03860v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce SciRet, a compute-aware empirical study of retrieval-augmented generation for scientific question answering over CORD-19.
arXiv:2608. 03655v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Abstractive summarization models remain vulnerable to factual inconsistency, redundancy, and weak length control.
arXiv:2608. 02833v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Chart question answering (CQA) requires multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to integrate visual comprehension with logical reasoning, yet current models struggle with accurate visual grounding and coherent reasoning chains.
arXiv:2608. 03605v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated fine-tuning with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) enables efficient collaborative adaptation of Large Language Models (LLMs) without centralizing private data.
arXiv:2608. 03826v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Geospatial and urban applications increasingly require models to compare heterogeneous evidence across street-view imagery, remote-sensing observations, text descriptions, region proposals, and temporal change cues.
arXiv:2603. 25857v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The capabilities of large language models (LLMs) have expanded beyond natural language processing to scientific prediction tasks, including molecular property prediction.
arXiv:2604. 04790v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Natural language processing (NLP) advances have powered a generation of LegalTech systems, but Turkish law remains under-served by domain-specific data and models.
arXiv:2608. 02150v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Embodied intelligence and world models require video understanding systems to go beyond recognizing objects and actions and develop an understanding of physical regularities.
arXiv:2608. 02961v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study a self-supervised generation task for single-cell gene expression vectors: given a set of vectors from a cell type, we aim to generate additional gene expression vectors of that cell type.
arXiv:2509. 25459v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) show promise in generating long-form scientific explanations that synthesize evidence and connect multiple factors.
arXiv:2608. 03437v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While human evaluation is the gold standard in many NLP tasks, it suffers from prohibitive costs and poor scalability.
arXiv:2608. 02907v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal retrievers are essential for knowledge-based visual question answering, where they retrieve external evidence for image-question pairs.
arXiv:2608. 01463v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-agent debate commonly exchanges complete rationales even when disagreements concern only a few intermediate claims.
arXiv:2608. 03025v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal named entity recognition (MNER) determines whether each candidate span and entity-type hypothesis is supported by joint textual and visual evidence.
arXiv:2608. 03803v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multilingual language models are deployed across a hundred or more languages, yet most benchmarks test whether a model can perform a task _in_ a language rather than whether it commands the language itself, conflating fluency with proficiency.
arXiv:2603. 09986v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Hallucinations, the tendency for large language models to provide responses with factually incorrect and unsupported claims, is a serious problem within natural language processing for which we do not yet have an effective solution to mitigate against.
arXiv:2608. 03048v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context reasoning remains a critical bottleneck for large language models, as recent recurrent-memory approaches face two inherent challenges: sequential chunk-wise updates can overwrite early critical evidence with later irrelevant content, and serial inter-chunk dependencies limit parallelism and cause latency to increase with context length.
arXiv:2608. 02609v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Half a million cuneiform clay tablets survive in museums worldwide, yet modern users can neither read nor write in the world's oldest writing system, leaving a 4,000-year cultural barrier that existing NLP tools have only partially addressed.
arXiv:2608. 03890v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A clinically useful chest X-ray system must go beyond fluent report generation: it should classify findings with tunable decision thresholds, localize them spatially, and derive the anatomical measurements upon which many diagnoses depend.
arXiv:2608. 03581v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI-assisted peer review is increasingly discussed and adopted as a tool to support the scientific publishing process, yet there is little systematic understanding of how publication venues regulate its use or of how capable current AI review systems are.
