Some test only open-ended news continuation on C4, and others test only low-entropy code generation. Robustness tests usually cover deliberate attacks such as paraphrasing, not the everyday edits users make to model output. EntroBench addresses both… ## Co-authors here 4 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Jing Tang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jing-tang/) - [Xiangxiang Chu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xiangxiang-chu/) - [Yujun Cai](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yujun-cai/) - [Yuxing Lu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yuxing-lu/) ## 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 Updated 1 November 2026
