Outperforming Larger Language Models with Less Training Data and Smaller Model Sizes](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hsieh-2023-distilling-step-step-outperforming-larger/)** *(2023 · 685 citations)* Large language models do well from only a few examples, but they are expensive to serve. Compact task-specific models are cheaper, but they usually need a lot of human-labelled or LLM-labelled data before they perform as well. The authors propose Distilling step-by-step, which uses the LLM as a source of explanations… 2. **[Lookback Lens: Detecting and Mitigating Contextual Hallucinations in Large Language Models Using Only Attention Maps](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chuang-2024-lookback-lens-detecting-mitigating-contextual/)** *(2024 · 76 citations)* The paper addresses contextual hallucinations, where an LLM has the correct facts in its input but still produces unsupported content, for example in summarization or document-grounded QA. ## Co-authors here 6 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Ranjay Krishna](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ranjay-krishna/) ×2 - [Alexander Ratner](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/alexander-ratner/) - [James Glass](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/james-glass/) - [Linlu Qiu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/linlu-qiu/) - [Yoon Kim](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yoon-kim/) - [Yung-Sung Chuang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yung-sung-chuang/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language…](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/): [2024](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/2024/) - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [2023](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2023/) - [Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems…](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/neural-information-processing-systems/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 563 times (of the 141,840 papers whose bibliographies we read); [38 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/cheng-yu-hsieh/cited-by/).
