The authors trace the full training trajectory instead of only the final checkpoint. They use English as the base language and three targets: Irish, Basque, and Chinese. The models are: 4. **[LaCoMSA: Language-Consistency Multilingual Self-Alignment with Latent Representation Rewarding](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tran-2026-lacomsa-language-consistency-multilingual-self/)** *(2026)* Multilingual LLMs tend to answer worse in lower-resource languages than in English. They also often switch into English even when prompted in another language. Earlier preference-optimization fixes such as MAPO, LIDR and ICR depend on outside supervision, such as translation systems or English-trained reward models. 5. **[Questionnaire Meets LLM: A Benchmark and Empirical Study of Structural Skills for Understanding Questions and Responses](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/nguyen-2026-questionnaire-meets-llm-benchmark-empirical/)** *(2026)* Survey data is a grid of respondents by questions. It is hard for LLMs because cells mix types such as Likert scores, coded multiple-choice options and free text, and answer codes must be decoded through schema metadata. Practitioners also have no evidence on how to turn such data into text for a model.
