Detectors that look only at the visible text, or that inject external knowledge in abstract form, often miss that hidden context. The authors draw on the psycholinguistic "direct access" view, which holds that humans… 2. **[DUTIR at SemEval-2026 Task 8: A Hybrid Retrieval and Faithfulness-Guarded Framework for Multi-Turn RAG](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yang-2026-dutir-semeval-2026-task-8/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* The paper describes the DUTIR Lab (Dalian University of Technology) entry for Task C of SemEval-2026 Task 8 (MTRAGEval). 3. **[sutta at SemEval-2026 Task 12: A Multi-Perspective Retrieve-Verify-Aggregate Framework for Abductive Event Reasoning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zou-2026-sutta-semeval-2026-task-12/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* The paper addresses Abductive Event Reasoning (SemEval-2026 Task 12). Given a real-world event, four candidate options and 10–20 retrieved documents, a system must select the option(s) that directly caused the event. The authors argue that LLMs given long, noisy context tend to latch onto plausible but non-causal… 4. **[LOTUS: Evolving Multimodal Unlearning via Hyperbolic Entailment and Lorentz Transport](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-lotus-evolving-multimodal-unlearning-hyperbolic/)** *(2026)* Multimodal LLMs can memorize sensitive material such as private identities or copyrighted images, and removing that knowledge on request is hard. ## All works 8 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 4 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Hate Speech Detection Based on Sentiment Knowledge Sharing ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long.556/) Proceedings of the 59th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics and the 11th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing (Volume 1: Long Papers) · no summary yet**Xianbing Zhou et al.*2021 · 63 citations* 2. **[Just Like a Human Would, Direct Access to Sarcasm Augmented with Potential Result and Reaction](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/min-2023-just-like-human-would-direct/) [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/)**Changrong Min, Ximing Li, Liang Yang, et al.*2023 · 16 citations* 3. **[DUTIR at SemEval-2026 Task 8: A Hybrid Retrieval and Faithfulness-Guarded Framework for Multi-Turn RAG](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yang-2026-dutir-semeval-2026-task-8/) [International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation (SemEval)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/semeval/)**Jin Yang, Yichong Chen, Liang Yang*2026 · 1 citation* 4. **[sutta at SemEval-2026 Task 12: A Multi-Perspective Retrieve-Verify-Aggregate Framework for Abductive Event Reasoning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zou-2026-sutta-semeval-2026-task-12/) [International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation (SemEval)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/semeval/)**Junliu Zou, Liang Yang, Jingjie Zeng*2026 · 1 citation* 5. **[LOTUS: Evolving Multimodal Unlearning via Hyperbolic Entailment and Lorentz Transport](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-lotus-evolving-multimodal-unlearning-hyperbolic/) [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/)**Zekun Wang, Jingjie Zeng, Yingxu Li, et al.*2026* 6. **[XiaoM at SemEval-2026 Task 7: A Qwen-based System for Accurate Retrieval of Everyday Knowledge Across Diverse Languages and Cultures ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2026.semeval-1.213/) Proceedings of the 20th International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation (2026) · no summary yet**Xiao Yao, Liang Yang*2026* 7. **[CogEvolve: A Multimodal Benchmark for Evaluating Relational Reasoning in Semantic Extension ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2026.acl-long.1190/) Proceedings of the 64th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (Volume 1: Long Papers) · no summary yet**Jingjie Zeng et al.*2026* 8. **[Mechanistic Insights into Deferred Semantic Drift in LLMs ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2026.findings-acl.57/) Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2026 · no summary yet**Jingjie Zeng et al.*2026* ## Co-authors here 6 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Hongfei Lin](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hongfei-lin/) ×2 - [Jingjie Zeng](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jingjie-zeng/) ×2 - [Bo Xu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/bo-xu/) - [Ximing Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ximing-li/) - [Zekun Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zekun-wang/) - [Zhilin Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zhilin-wang/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/) ×3: [ACL 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2026/), [ACL 2023](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2023/) - [International Workshop on Semantic Evaluation (SemEval)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/semeval/) ×3: [SemEval 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/semeval/2026/) ×2 - Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2026 - Proceedings of the 59th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics and the 11th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing (Volume 1: Long Papers) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 18 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [3 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/liang-yang/cited-by/).
