They either drop numbers during preprocessing, collapse them into UNK tokens, or let BPE/WordPiece break them into arbitrary pieces. Neuroscience, by contrast, suggests the brain processes quantities differently from words. The authors propose… 2. **[ARN: Analogical Reasoning on Narratives](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sourati-2024-arn-analogical-reasoning-narratives/)** *(2024 · 17 citations)* Most NLP research on analogy tests word-pair proportions (A : B :: C : D). Cognitive psychology, by contrast, studies analogy mainly through stories and separates shallow overlap from deeper relational structure. The authors ask whether current LLMs can detect such structure-level ("system") analogies between… ## All works 4 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. **[Representing Numbers in NLP: a Survey and a Vision](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/thawani-2021-representing-numbers-nlp-survey-vision/) [Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (NAACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/naacl/)**Avijit Thawani, Jay Pujara, Filip Ilievski, et al.*2021 · 139 citations* 2. **[Connecting the Dots: A Knowledgeable Path Generator for Commonsense Question Answering ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2020.findings-emnlp.369/) Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2020 · no summary yet**Peifeng Wang et al.*2020 · 104 citations* 3. **[Dimensions of Commonsense Knowledge ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.04640) arXiv:2101.04640 (Knowledge-Based Systems 2021) · no summary yet**Filip Ilievski et al.*2021 · 94 citations* 4. **[ARN: Analogical Reasoning on Narratives](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sourati-2024-arn-analogical-reasoning-narratives/) [Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics (TACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/tacl/)**Zhivar Sourati, Filip Ilievski, Pia Sommerauer, et al.*2024 · 17 citations* ## Co-authors here 3 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Jay Pujara](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jay-pujara/) - [Yifan Jiang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yifan-jiang/) - [Zhivar Sourati](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zhivar-sourati/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (NAACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/naacl/): [NAACL 2021](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/naacl/2021/) - [Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics (TACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/tacl/): [Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics (TACL) 2024](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/tacl/2024/) - Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2020 ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 129 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [18 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/filip-ilievski/cited-by/).
