1. **[TOFU: A Task of Fictitious Unlearning for LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/maini-2024-tofu-task-fictitious-unlearning-llms/)** *(2024 · 144 citations)* LLMs can memorize and reveal private details about people. "Unlearning" means adjusting a trained model so it forgets particular data. However, it has been hard to tell whether existing unlearning methods produce a model that behaves like one that never saw that data. TOFU (Task of Fictitious Unlearning) addresses…
2. **[CogCompTime: A Tool for Understanding Time in Natural Language](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ning-2018-cogcomptime-tool-understanding-time-natural/)** *(2018 · 93 citations)* CogCompTime is a publicly available system for extracting temporal information from raw English text. It covers two tasks. The first is finding explicit time expressions (Timexes) and converting them to a standard format. The second is recovering the implicit ordering of events through temporal relations (TempRels).
