1. QANom: Question-Answer driven SRL for Nominalizations (2020 · 41 citations)
   QANom extends QA-SRL from verbs to nouns derived from verbs: a noun like proof or increase is questioned with its verb's question templates («What has someone proved?», «Why did something increase?») and answered with spans of the sentence.
2. Ranking Human and LLM Texts Using Locality Statistics (2026)
   Most detectors of machine-generated text rely on large transformer models, which are costly to run and hard to interpret.
