First, the winning and losing responses in a preference pair often differ in many irrelevant aspects, which blurs what the model should learn. Second, standard contrastive objectives do not consider whether the target model is… 2. **[CAW-coref: Conjunction-Aware Word-level Coreference Resolution](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/oosterlinck-2023-caw-coref-conjunction-aware-word/)** *(2023 · 17 citations)* Coreference resolution groups text mentions that point to the same entity. The strongest current systems call large language models many times per document, which is too costly for large-scale information extraction. Word-level coreference (WL-coref) is much cheaper. A single pass of roberta-large produces word… ## All works 6 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Anchored Preference Optimization and Contrastive Revisions: Addressing Underspecification in Alignment](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/oosterlinck-2025-anchored-preference-optimization-contrastive-revisions/) [Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics (TACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/tacl/)**Karel D'Oosterlinck, Winnie Xu, Chris Develder, et al.*2025 · 20 citations* 2. **[CAW-coref: Conjunction-Aware Word-level Coreference Resolution](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/oosterlinck-2023-caw-coref-conjunction-aware-word/) [Workshop on Computational Models of Reference, Anaphora and Coreference (CRAC)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/crac/)**Karel D'Oosterlinck, Semere Kiros Bitew, Brandon Papineau, et al.*2023 · 17 citations* 3. **[In-Context Learning for Extreme Multi-Label Classification ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.12178) arXiv (Cornell University) · no summary yet**Karel D’Oosterlinck et al.*2024 · 16 citations* 4. **[BioDEX: Large-Scale Biomedical Adverse Drug Event Extraction for Real-World Pharmacovigilance ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2023.findings-emnlp.896/) Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2023 · no summary yet**Karel D'Oosterlinck et al.*2023 · 14 citations* 5. **[Learning from Partially Annotated Data: Example-aware Creation of Gap-filling Exercises for Language Learning ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2023.bea-1.51/) Proceedings of the 18th Workshop on Innovative Use of NLP for Building Educational Applications (BEA 2023) · no summary yet**Semere Kiros Bitew et al.*2023 · 4 citations* 6. **[Flexible Model Interpretability through Natural Language Model Editing ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.10905) arXiv (Cornell University) · no summary yet**Karel D’Oosterlinck et al.*2023* ## Co-authors here 7 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Christopher E.
