  1. What did you say? Generating Child-Directed Speech Questions to Train LLMs (2025 · 3 citations)
    Language models trained on adult speech addressed to children (Child-Directed Speech, CDS) often perform better than models trained on the same amount of other types of text.
  2. Challenges in Japanese Euphemism Classification: An Analysis of Pretrained Japanese and Multilingual Models (2026)
    Euphemisms are difficult for NLP because whether a phrase is meant literally or euphemistically depends on context, social norms and pragmatic inference.
  3. Making Synthetic Questions More Child-Directed: Prompting and Sampling Effects (2026)
    Child-directed speech (CDS) can help small language models learn, but real CDS corpora are small, so researchers try to synthesize CDS-like input.
