## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[Language Modeling Is Compression](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/deletang-2023-language-modeling-compression/)** *(2023 · 89 citations)* The paper revisits the old equivalence between prediction and lossless compression and uses it to evaluate large pretrained models.
2. **[Neural Networks and the Chomsky Hierarchy](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/deletang-2022-neural-networks-chomsky-hierarchy/)** *(2022 · 66 citations)* The authors investigate whether the theory of computation, specifically the Chomsky hierarchy, can predict where the ability of neural networks to generalize out of distribution ends.
