- Targeted Syntactic Evaluation on the Chomsky Hierarchy (2024 · 10 citations)
The authors propose a new approach to Targeted Syntactic Evaluation. Rather than testing individual grammatical phenomena, they examine how language models handle constructions of varying complexity according to the Chomsky hierarchy. To this end, four artificial formal languages are constructed, each modeling a… - An Existence Proof for Neural Language Models That Can Explain Garden-Path Effects via Surprisal (2026 · 1 citation)
Neural language models (LMs) estimate reading difficulty well on simple, naturalistic text. On garden-path sentences, however, their surprisal predicts far less slowdown than humans actually show. Several researchers have taken this gap as evidence that syntactic disambiguation cost lies outside surprisal theory.…
