They do this poorly for code, partly because training masks tokens uniformly at random, ignoring program grammar. As a result, models often produce syntactically broken drafts and miss long-range relations such as… 2. **[HyperEdit: Unlocking Instruction-based Text Editing in LLMs via Hypernetworks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zeng-2026-hyperedit-unlocking-instruction-based-text/)** *(2026)* LLM-based text editing often fails in two ways. Models may not carry out the user's instruction precisely, and they tend to rewrite parts of the text that should stay untouched, which can break code or degrade a corrected document. HyperEdit addresses both problems. A hypernetwork reads the instruction and the source… ## Co-authors here 9 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Dawei Xiang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/dawei-xiang/) ×2 - [Jinghan Cao](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/jinghan-cao/) ×2 - [Shangqian Gao](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shangqian-gao/) ×2 - [Tingting Yu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tingting-yu/) ×2 - [Zexin Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zexin-li/) ×2 - [Tao Ren](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tao-ren/) - [Ting Hua](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ting-hua/) - [Xin Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xin-liu/) - [Yiming Chen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yiming-chen/) ## 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/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) - [Workshop on Structured Understanding, Retrieval, and Generation in the LLM Era](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/surgellm/): [Workshop on Structured Understanding, Retrieval, and Generation in the LLM Era 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/surgellm/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 2 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [1 citing paper with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yiming-zeng/cited-by/).
