1. **[Systematic Generalization: What Is Required and Can It Be Learned?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bahdanau-2018-systematic-generalization-required-learned/)** *(2018 · 73 citations)* The authors test whether neural models of grounded language understanding can generalize systematically, that is, correctly understand new combinations of words they have already seen.
2. **[The N+ Implementation Details of RLHF with PPO: A Case Study on TL;DR Summarization](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/huang-2024-n-implementation-details-rlhf-ppo/)** *(2024 · 14 citations)* RLHF pipelines like OpenAI's have been hard to replicate in open source. Subtle engineering choices affect stability, instruction-following outputs are difficult to judge, and training cycles are slow. The authors address this by revisiting the earlier TL;DR summarization study of Stiennon et al. (2020), where…
