  1. Text-to-SQL Empowered by Large Language Models: A Benchmark Evaluation (2023 · 463 citations)
    Large language models have become a strong option for turning natural-language questions into SQL. However, no one had systematically compared the many prompting choices behind these systems. Gao et al. address this with a broad benchmark on Spider. They test how the database and question are written into the prompt…
  2. Language Adaptation of Large Language Models: An Empirical Study on LLaMA2 (2025 · 7 citations)
    Most large language models learn mainly from English text and handle other languages less well. Building a balanced multilingual model from scratch is too costly for most groups, so adapting an existing model is the practical alternative. Methods for transferring older models such as BERT across languages may not…
  3. d-TreeRPO: Towards More Reliable Policy Optimization for Diffusion Language Models (2026 · 3 citations)
    Reinforcement learning for diffusion large language models (dLLMs) has two weak spots. Rewards are usually sparse outcome scores or unverified process signals, and per-token log-probabilities are approximated without accounting for the expectation over all possible decoding orders. d-TreeRPO addresses both. It…
  4. Incentivizing Strong Reasoning from Weak Supervision (2026 · 1 citation)
    Improving LLM reasoning usually requires either reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards, which is compute-intensive, or SFT on long chain-of-thought (CoT) data from very strong teachers, which is costly to obtain.
