However, they have many parameters and slow inference, which makes them difficult to run on phones and other low-resource devices. The authors compress BERT with a knowledge distillation method designed specifically for the Transformer… 2. **[Unsupervised Recognition of Literal and Non-Literal Use of Idiomatic Expressions](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sporleder-2009-unsupervised-recognition-literal-non-literal/)** *(2009 · 173 citations)* The paper tackles token-level idiom classification: deciding whether a potentially idiomatic expression such as spill the beans or play with fire is meant literally or figuratively in a specific context. ## All works 3 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[TinyBERT: Distilling BERT for Natural Language Understanding](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jiao-2020-tinybert-distilling-bert-natural-language/) [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/)**Xiaoqi Jiao, Yichun Yin, Lifeng Shang, et al.*2020 · 2,378 citations* 2. **[Unsupervised Recognition of Literal and Non-Literal Use of Idiomatic Expressions](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sporleder-2009-unsupervised-recognition-literal-non-literal/) [Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/)**Caroline Sporleder, Linlin Li*2009 · 173 citations* 3. **[A Neural Multi-digraph Model for Chinese NER with Gazetteers ↗](https://aclanthology.org/P19-1141/) Proceedings of the 57th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics · no summary yet**Ruixue Ding et al.*2019 · 144 citations* ## Co-authors here 7 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Caroline Sporleder](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/caroline-sporleder/) - [Lifeng Shang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/lifeng-shang/) - [Qun Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/qun-liu/) - [Xiao Chen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xiao-chen/) - [Xiaoqi Jiao](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xiaoqi-jiao/) - [Xin Jiang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xin-jiang/) - [Yichun Yin](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yichun-yin/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/): [EACL 2009](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/2009/) - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2020](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2020/) - Proceedings of the 57th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 736 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [84 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/linlin-li/cited-by/).
