1. **[Bidirectional LSTM-CRF Models for Sequence Tagging](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/huang-2015-bidirectional-lstm-crf-models-sequence/)** *(2015 · 3,818 citations)* This 2015 Baidu Research paper looks at sequence tagging (part-of-speech tagging, chunking and named entity recognition) with recurrent neural networks instead of linear models such as HMM, MEMM and CRF.
2. **[LGESQL: Line Graph Enhanced Text-to-SQL Model with Mixed Local and Non-Local Relations](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/cao-2021-lgesql-line-graph-enhanced-text/)** *(2021 · 191 citations)* Text-to-SQL systems must jointly encode a natural-language question and a database schema of tables and columns, which form a heterogeneous graph.
3. **[Towards Universal Dialogue State Tracking](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ren-2018-universal-dialogue-state-tracking/)** *(2018 · 191 citations)* The paper tackles dialogue state tracking (DST), which means estimating a user's goal as slot-value pairs at each turn of a task-oriented spoken dialogue.
4. **[F5-TTS: A Fairytaler that Fakes Fluent and Faithful Speech with Flow Matching](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chen-2025-f5-tts-fairytaler-that-fakes/)** *(2025 · 152 citations)* F5-TTS is a fully non-autoregressive zero-shot text-to-speech system. It drops the usual alignment machinery: no duration model, no text encoder, and no phoneme alignment. Like E2 TTS, it turns the transcript into a character sequence, pads it with filler tokens to the length of the mel spectrogram, and trains a…
5. **[Is LLM a Reliable Reviewer? A Comprehensive Evaluation of LLM on Automatic Paper Reviewing Tasks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhou-2024-is-llm-reliable-reviewer-comprehensive/)** *(2024 · 73 citations)* The paper asks whether large language models can be trusted as automatic peer reviewers, a question earlier review datasets did not answer well because they did not verify that generated reviews were correct.
