CT: Counterfactual Causal Reasoning for Sentiment Shifts in Social-Media Conversation Trees
S M Rafiuddin, Atriya Sen
Sentiment in social-media threads does not only vary across posts; it shifts as users react to claims, corrections, evidence, and hostility within a branching reply tree. We study…
Gender Bias in MT for a Genderless Language: New Benchmarks for Basque
Amaia Murillo, Olatz-Perez-de-Viñaspre, Naiara Perez
Large language models (LLMs) and machine translation (MT) systems are increasingly used in our daily lives, but their outputs can reproduce gender bias present in the training data…
Let's (not) just put things in Context: Test-Time Training for Long-Context LLMs
Rachit Bansal, Aston Zhang, Rishabh Tiwari +8
Progress on training and architecture strategies has enabled LLMs with millions of tokens in context length. However, empirical evidence suggests that such long-context LLMs can co…
From KMMLU-Redux to KMMLU-Pro: A Professional Korean Benchmark Suite for LLM Evaluation

Balancing Knowledge Delivery and Emotional Comfort in Healthcare Conversational Systems
Shang-Chi Tsai, Yun-Nung Chen
With the advancement of large language models, many dialogue systems are now capable of providing reasonable and informative responses to patients' medical conditions. However, whe…
Dialect Normalization using Large Language Models and Morphological Rules
Antonios Dimakis, John Pavlopoulos, Antonios Anastasopoulos
Natural language understanding systems struggle with low-resource languages, including many dialects of high-resource ones. Dialect-to-standard normalization attempts to tackle thi…
Jailbreak Distillation: Renewable Safety Benchmarking
Jingyu Zhang, Ahmed Elgohary, Xiawei Wang +5
Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly deployed in critical applications, raising urgent needs for robust safety benchmarking. We propose Jailbreak Distillation (JBDistill), a no…
ZeroSumEval: An Extensible Framework For Scaling LLM Evaluation with Inter-Model Competition
Hisham A. Alyahya, Haidar Khan, Yazeed Alnumay +2
We introduce ZeroSumEval, a dynamic, competition-based, and evolving evaluation framework for Large Language Models (LLMs) that leverages competitive games. ZeroSumEval encompasses…
Correlating and Predicting Human Evaluations of Language Models from Natural Language Processing Benchmarks
Rylan Schaeffer, Punit Singh Koura, Binh Tang +11
The explosion of high-performing conversational language models (LMs) has spurred a shift from classic natural language processing (NLP) benchmarks to expensive, time-consuming and…
Multilingual Machine Translation with Open Large Language Models at Practical Scale: An Empirical Study
Menglong Cui, Pengzhi Gao, Wei Liu +2
Large language models (LLMs) have shown continuously improving multilingual capabilities, and even small-scale open-source models have demonstrated rapid performance enhancement. I…
BTS: Harmonizing Specialized Experts into a Generalist LLM
Qizhen Zhang, Prajjwal Bhargava, Chloe Bi +9
We present Branch-Train-Stitch (BTS), an efficient and flexible training algorithm for combining independently trained large language model (LLM) experts into a single, capable gen…
LLäMmlein: Transparent, Compact and Competitive German-Only Language Models from Scratch
Jan Pfister, Julia Wunderle, Andreas Hotho
We create two German-only decoder models, LLäMmlein 120M and 1B, transparently from scratch and publish them, along with the training data, for the German NLP research community to…
The Llama 3 Herd of Models
Aaron Grattafiori, Abhimanyu Dubey, Abhinav Jauhri +556
Modern artificial intelligence (AI) systems are powered by foundation models. This paper presents a new set of foundation models, called Llama 3. It is a herd of language models th…
"Sorry, Come Again?" Prompting -- Enhancing Comprehension and Diminishing Hallucination with [PAUSE]-injected Optimal Paraphrasing
Vipula Rawte, S. M Towhidul Islam Tonmoy, S M Mehedi Zaman +4
Hallucination has emerged as the most vulnerable aspect of contemporary Large Language Models (LLMs). In this paper, we introduce the Sorry, Come Again (SCA) prompting, aimed to av…
Towards Artwork Explanation in Large-scale Vision Language Models
Kazuki Hayashi, Yusuke Sakai, Hidetaka Kamigaito +2
Large-scale Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) output text from images and instructions, demonstrating capabilities in text generation and comprehension. However, it has not been clari…
When Benchmarks are Targets: Revealing the Sensitivity of Large Language Model Leaderboards
Norah Alzahrani, Hisham Abdullah Alyahya, Yazeed Alnumay +9
Large Language Model (LLM) leaderboards based on benchmark rankings are regularly used to guide practitioners in model selection. Often, the published leaderboard rankings are take…
Effective Long-Context Scaling of Foundation Models
