1. **[SenseBERT: Driving Some Sense into BERT](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/levine-2020-sensebert-driving-some-sense-into/)** *(2020 · 259 citations)* Self-supervised language models such as BERT learn from word forms, which are only an ambiguous stand-in for meaning.
2. **[Fundamental Limitations of Alignment in Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wolf-2023-fundamental-limitations-alignment-large-language/)** *(2023 · 110 citations)* Wolf et al. ask whether aligning a large language model, via RLHF finetuning or aligning prompts, can make it robust to adversarial users. To analyze this, they develop Behavior Expectation Bounds (BEB), a framework grounded in probability theory. Each behavior vertical (e.g., helpfulness, politeness) assigns…
3. **[Parallel Context Windows for Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ratner-2023-parallel-context-windows-large-language/)** *(2023 · 102 citations)* Off-the-shelf large language models can only read a fixed number of tokens at once. This limits in-context learning, multi-document question answering and other long-input uses. Earlier fixes usually needed specially trained architectures. The authors propose Parallel Context Windows (PCW), which works with any…
4. **[Generating Benchmarks for Factuality Evaluation of Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/muhlgay-2024-generating-benchmarks-factuality-evaluation-language/)** *(2024 · 79 citations)* Measuring how often a language model produces false statements in a given domain is hard. Methods that fact-check a model's own samples cannot choose which facts get tested, and they favour common knowledge over rare or domain-specific facts. Perplexity is often used as a stand-in, but it reflects many linguistic…
