1. **[Graph-to-Sequence Learning using Gated Graph Neural Networks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/beck-2018-graph-sequence-learning-gated-graph/)** *(2018 · 459 citations)* Many NLP tasks require turning a graph into text. Examples include generating sentences from semantic graphs or translating a source sentence annotated with a syntactic tree. Earlier methods had drawbacks. Grammar-based systems need node–token alignments, and linearising the graph throws away structure. Earlier…
2. **[Uncertainty Estimation and Reduction of Pre-trained Models for Text Regression](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2022-uncertainty-estimation-reduction-pre-trained/)** *(2022 · 49 citations)* Pre-trained language models used for text regression tend to be overconfident when they are wrong. This limits their use in high-stakes areas such as clinical decision support. Calibration work in NLP has mostly targeted classifiers, so Wang et al. study how well regression models built on pre-trained LMs can express…
3. **[FLUKE: A Linguistically-Driven and Task-Agnostic Framework for Robustness Evaluation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/otmakhova-2026-fluke-linguistically-driven-task-agnostic/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Benchmark scores often hide how fragile NLP systems are when the input changes in small, meaning-controlled ways.
