Neuro-symbolic Syntactic Parsing: Shaping a Neural Network with the CYK Algorithm

Fabio Massimo Zanzotto, Federico Ranaldi, Giorgio Satta

In this paper, we show the possibility of a direct injection of algorithms into neural network architecture. We focus on a complex algorithm, that is, Cocke-Youger-Kasami (CYK) for…

Challenging the Abilities of Large Language Models in Italian: a Community Initiative

Malvina Nissim, Danilo Croce, Viviana Patti +78

The rapid progress of Large Language Models (LLMs) has transformed natural language processing and broadened its impact across research and society. Yet, systematic evaluation of t…

Protoknowledge Shapes Behaviour of LLMs in Downstream Tasks: Memorization and Generalization with Knowledge Graphs

Federico Ranaldi, Andrea Zugarini, Leonardo Ranaldi +1

We introduce the concept of protoknowledge to formalize and measure how sequences of tokens encoding Knowledge Graphs are internalized during pretraining and utilized at inference…

Improving Multilingual Retrieval-Augmented Language Models through Dialectic Reasoning Argumentations

Leonardo Ranaldi, Federico Ranaldi, Fabio Massimo Zanzotto +2

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) is key to enhancing large language models (LLMs) to systematically access richer factual knowledge. Yet, using RAG brings intrinsic challenges,…

MeMo: Towards Language Models with Associative Memory Mechanisms

Fabio Massimo Zanzotto, Elena Sofia Ruzzetti, Giancarlo A. Xompero +6

Memorization is a fundamental ability of Transformer-based Large Language Models, achieved through learning. In this paper, we propose a paradigm shift by designing an architecture…
