1. **[Prompting for explanations improves Adversarial NLI. Is this true? \Yes\ it is \true\ because ıt weakens superficial cues\](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/kavumba-2023-prompting-explanations-improves-adversarial-nli/)** *(2023 · 14 citations)* The paper asks whether making a model justify its NLI decisions in free text does more than make it interpretable.
2. **[How to teach the reasoning process in neural-symbolic reasoning (ニューラル記号推論における推論過程の教示方法)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/brassard-2023-how-teach-reasoning-process/)** *(2023)* The authors investigate how to train a neural seq2seq model to write out intermediate reasoning steps so that it reliably solves formal multi-step problems.
