Many NLP tasks use short inputs padded to a fixed context length, and the authors show this padding creates structured row sparsity in the output gradients. They measured this in BERT-base and RoBERTa-base on GLUE (short)… 2. **[From Standard Transformers to Modern LLMs: Bringing Dialogue Models, RAG, and Agents to the Classroom](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tikhonova-2026-standard-transformers-modern-llms-bringing/)** *(2026)* This TeachNLP 2026 paper describes the second edition of an open university course on Transformer-based LLMs and multimodal models, first presented by Nikishina et al. ## Co-authors here 2 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Alexander Panchenko](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/alexander-panchenko/) ×2 - [Maria Tikhonova](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/maria-tikhonova/) ## 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 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/2026/) - [Workshop on Teaching Natural Language Processing](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/teachingnlp/): [Workshop on Teaching Natural Language Processing 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/teachingnlp/2026/) Updated 1 November 2026
