This approach has three costs. Attention cost grows quadratically with output length. Generation can be cut off at the maximum context size before an answer appears. Quality also drops once text exceeds the short… 2. **[LogicPro: Improving Complex Logical Reasoning via Program-Guided Learning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jiang-2025-logicpro-improving-complex-logical-reasoning/)** *(2025 · 8 citations)* Large language models often fail at multi-step logical reasoning when a task is posed in plain text, even when the same task is easy to solve with code. 3. **[SWE-Mutation: Can LLMs Generate Reliable Test Suites in Software Engineering?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sun-2026-swe-mutation-can-llms-generate/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Training and evaluating LLMs for software engineering depends on test suites, both for synthesizing repair trajectories and for providing reward signals in reinforcement learning. ## All works 5 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 3 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Knowledge-aware Graph Neural Networks with Label Smoothness Regularization for Recommender Systems ↗](https://doi.org/10.1145/3292500.3330836) ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery & Data Mining (KDD) · no summary yet**Hongwei Wang et al.*2019 · 663 citations* 2. **[Incorporating Dynamic Semantics into Pre-Trained Language Model for Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis ↗](https://aclanthology.org/2022.findings-acl.285/) Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2022 · no summary yet**Kai Zhang et al.*2022 · 82 citations* 3.
