Investigating Expert-in-the-Loop LLM Discourse Patterns for Ancient Intertextual Analysis

Ray Umphrey, Jesse Roberts, Lindsey Roberts

This study explores the potential of large language models (LLMs) for identifying and examining intertextual relationships within biblical, Koine Greek texts. By evaluating the per…

Large Language Model Recall Uncertainty is Modulated by the Fan Effect

Jesse Roberts, Kyle Moore, Thao Pham +2

This paper evaluates whether large language models (LLMs) exhibit cognitive fan effects, similar to those discovered by Anderson in humans, after being pre-trained on human textual…

The Base-Rate Effect on LLM Benchmark Performance: Disambiguating Test-Taking Strategies from Benchmark Performance

Kyle Moore, Jesse Roberts, Thao Pham +2

Cloze testing is a common method for measuring the behavior of large language models on a number of benchmark tasks. Using the MMLU dataset, we show that the base-rate probability…

How Powerful are Decoder-Only Transformer Neural Models?

Jesse Roberts

In this article we prove that the general transformer neural model undergirding modern large language models (LLMs) is Turing complete under reasonable assumptions. This is the fir…
