1. **[Beyond Boundaries: Learning a Universal Entity Taxonomy across Datasets and Languages for Open Named Entity Recognition](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yang-2025-beyond-boundaries-learning-universal-entity/)** *(2025 · 11 citations)* Open NER requires a model to find entities of any requested type in text from any domain, and even strong LLMs such as GPT-4 perform poorly at it.
2. **[Measuring Data Diversity for Instruction Tuning: A Systematic Analysis and A Reliable Metric](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yang-2025-measuring-data-diversity-instruction-tuning/)** *(2025 · 11 citations)* Diversity is widely seen as a key property of instruction-tuning (IT) data, yet there is no agreed way to quantify it.
