They do worse than averaged GloVe vectors. The authors ask whether BERT lacks semantic knowledge or whether that knowledge is simply hard to reach with cosine similarity. 2. **[MathAgent: Adversarial Evolution of Constraint Graphs for Mathematical Reasoning Data Synthesis](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yu-2026-mathagent-adversarial-evolution-constraint-graphs/)** *(2026 · 3 citations)* Synthetic data for mathematical reasoning is often built either by mutating human-curated seed problems, which limits diversity to the seeds' scope, or by prompting models from scratch, which tends toward repetitive, shallow problems (mode collapse). 3. **[BSCodec: A Band-Split Neural Codec for High-Quality Universal Audio Reconstruction](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-bscodec-band-split-neural-codec/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Neural audio codecs tuned for speech tend to degrade on music and environmental sound, whose energy is spread differently across the spectrum. ## All works 4 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 3 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[On the Sentence Embeddings from Pre-trained Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2020-sentence-embeddings-pre-trained-language/) [Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/)**Bohan Li, Hao Zhou, Junxian He, et al.*2020 · 833 citations* 2. **[An Adversarial Approach to High-Quality, Sentiment-Controlled Neural Dialogue Generation ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/1901.07129) arXiv (Cornell University) · no summary yet**Xiang Kong et al.*2019 · 24 citations* 3. **[MathAgent: Adversarial Evolution of Constraint Graphs for Mathematical Reasoning Data Synthesis](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yu-2026-mathagent-adversarial-evolution-constraint-graphs/) [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/)**Zixiong Yu, Jun Rao, Guhan Chen, et al.*2026 · 3 citations* 4. **[BSCodec: A Band-Split Neural Codec for High-Quality Universal Audio Reconstruction](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-bscodec-band-split-neural-codec/) [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/)**Haoran Wang, Jiatong Shi, Jinchuan Tian, et al.*2026 · 1 citation* ## Co-authors here 12 of 15 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Hao Zhou](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hao-zhou/) - [Haoran Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/haoran-wang/) - [Jiansheng Wei](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jiansheng-wei/) - [Jiatong Shi](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jiatong-shi/) - [Jinchuan Tian](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jinchuan-tian/) - [Jun Rao](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jun-rao/) - [Junxian He](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/junxian-he/) - [Kai Yu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/kai-yu/) - [Lei Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/lei-li/) - [Min Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/min-zhang/) - [Mingxuan Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mingxuan-wang/) - [Shinji Watanabe](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shinji-watanabe/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/) ×2: [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) ×2 - [Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/): [EMNLP 2020](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/2020/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 269 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [24 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/bohan-li/cited-by/).
