Adam's Law: Textual Frequency Law on Large Language Models

Hongyuan Adam Lu, Z. L., Victor Wei +5

While textual frequency has been validated as relevant to human cognition in reading speed, its relatedness to Large Language Models (LLMs) is seldom studied. We propose a novel re…

Exploring Gap Filling as a Cheaper Alternative to Reading Comprehension Questionnaires when Evaluating Machine Translation for Gisting

Mikel L. Forcada, Carolina Scarton, Lucia Specia +2

A popular application of machine translation (MT) is gisting: MT is consumed as is to make sense of text in a foreign language. Evaluation of the usefulness of MT for gisting is su…
