Aleph-Alpha-GermanWeb: Improving German-language LLM pre-training with model-based data curation and synthetic data generation

Thomas F Burns, Letitia Parcalabescu, Stephan Wäldchen +5

Scaling data quantity is essential for large language models (LLMs), yet recent findings show that data quality can significantly boost performance and training efficiency. We intr…

On Measuring Faithfulness or Self-consistency of Natural Language Explanations

Letitia Parcalabescu, Anette Frank

Large language models (LLMs) can explain their predictions through post-hoc or Chain-of-Thought (CoT) explanations. But an LLM could make up reasonably sounding explanations that a…

AMR Similarity Metrics from Principles

Juri Opitz, Letitia Parcalabescu, Anette Frank

Different metrics have been proposed to compare Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) graphs. The canonical Smatch metric (Cai and Knight, 2013) aligns the variables of two graphs…
