1. **[Aspect Sentiment Quad Prediction as Paraphrase Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2021-aspect-sentiment-quad-prediction-as/)** *(2021 · 325 citations)* Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) is built around four elements: the category an aspect falls under, the term naming the aspect itself, the words expressing an opinion about it, and the polarity of the sentiment conveyed.
2. **[Prompting and Evaluating Large Language Models for Proactive Dialogues: Clarification, Target-guided, and Non-collaboration](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/deng-2023-prompting-evaluating-large-language-models/)** *(2023 · 128 citations)* Chat assistants built on large language models, such as ChatGPT, respond fluently but mostly react to the user. They rarely ask for clarification when a request is ambiguous, and they seldom steer or resist a conversation. Deng et al. test whether such systems can handle proactive dialogue in three settings:
