Some tasks labelled as reasoning, such as parts of commonsense reasoning, involve little actual inference. Others, like natural language inference or multi-hop QA, often require it but are not named that way.

Annotated data is scarce, OCR output is noisy, and the texts are multilingual and archaic. The authors study racialization from two complementary angles. 4. **[Preference Optimization for Review Question Generation Improves Writing Quality](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sharma-2026-preference-optimization-review-question-generation/)** *(2026)* LLM-drafted peer-review questions are often shallow. They tend to echo keywords or the introduction instead of engaging critically with the whole paper. To address this, the authors built a corpus of reviewer questions from ICLR 2024 reviews on OpenReview, using Gemini 2.0 for extraction and olmOCR for paper text.… ## Co-authors here 9 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Yazhou Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yazhou-zhang/) ×2 - [Benyou Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/benyou-wang/) - [Fei Yu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/fei-yu/) - [Fengran Mo](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/fengran-mo/) - [Hongbo Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hongbo-zhang/) - [Jing Qin](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jing-qin/) - [Shengzhi LI](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shengzhi-li/) - [Yuxiang Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yuxiang-wang/) - [Zheng Lian](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zheng-lian/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/) ×2: [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) ×2 - [ACM Computing Surveys](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acm-computing-surveys/): [ACM Computing Surveys 2023](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acm-computing-surveys/2023/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 84 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [22 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/prayag-tiwari/cited-by/).
