 Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

  1. An Explanation of In-context Learning as Implicit Bayesian Inference (2021 · 269 citations)
    The paper asks why large LMs such as GPT-3 can pick up a task from input-output examples in a prompt, even though they were never trained to learn from examples.
  2. A Survey on Data Selection for Language Models (2024 · 85 citations)
    Large language models depend on huge web-scale corpora, but using every available document is often wasteful or harmful because text quality varies widely.
