1. STransE: a novel embedding model of entities and relationships in knowledge bases (2016 · 130 citations)
   Knowledge bases such as WordNet or Freebase store facts as (head, relation, tail) triples, but they are far from complete.
2. Less is More: Mitigate Spurious Correlations for Open-Domain Dialogue Response Generation Models by Causal Discovery (2023 · 11 citations)
   Open-domain response generators such as BlenderBot and DialoGPT write fluent replies but often lose track of long conversation histories.
3. CoTEvol: Self-Evolving Chain-of-Thoughts for Data Synthesis in Mathematical Reasoning (2026)
   Training LLMs for math reasoning depends on high-quality Chain-of-Thought (CoT) data, which is expensive to annotate.
4. Distributional Alignment for Large Language Models under Domain Shift (2026)
   The paper addresses distribution prediction for LLMs: estimating the share of a country's population that would choose each option of a multiple-choice survey question.
5. LiveCultureBench: a Multi-Agent, Multi-Cultural Benchmark for Large Language Models in Dynamic Social Simulations (2026)
   LLM-based agents are usually judged by whether they finish tasks. Static benchmarks such as CDEval and NormAd test cultural knowledge, but they cannot show how cultural misalignment appears when an agent pursues goals over time. LiveCultureBench fills this gap. It places a target LLM agent in a simulated small city…
