The gap is largest at the segment level, and part of the cause is that existing prompting methods put the whole MQM error taxonomy into one prompt and evaluate in a single pass. ## Also in our library 2 more works of theirs are in our library without a page here yet; they will appear as we publish them. ## Co-authors here 4 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Yan Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yan-zhang/) ×2 - [Hongwei Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/hongwei-wang/) - [Lidong Bing](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/lidong-bing/) - [Ruidan He](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ruidan-he/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 106 times (of the 140 884 papers whose bibliographies we read); [11 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zuozhu-liu/cited-by/).
