ExpLang turns the choice of thinking language into an action the model takes itself during RL. The pipeline has three steps: 2. **[Non-literal Meaning Representation in the Brain during Naturalistic Listening](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ma-2026-non-literal-meaning-representation-brain/)** *(2026)* The paper asks how the brain represents implied meaning during natural story listening. In continuous narratives, surface content and implied content are hard to separate computationally. The authors used a public fMRI dataset (Li et al., 2022) in which 35 native Mandarin speakers listened to the full Chinese… ## Co-authors here 3 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Changjiang Gao](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/changjiang-gao/) - [Jiajun Chen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jiajun-chen/) - [Shujian Huang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shujian-huang/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Society for Computation in Linguistics (SCiL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/scil/): [SCiL 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/scil/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 4 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [1 citing paper with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jixing-li/cited-by/).
