On the Efficacy of Sampling Adapters

1 code implementation7 Jul 2023 Clara Meister, Tiago Pimentel, Luca Malagutti, Ethan G. Wilcox, Ryan Cotterell

While this trade-off is not reflected in standard metrics of distribution quality (such as perplexity), we find that several precision-emphasizing measures indeed indicate that sampling adapters can lead to probability distributions more aligned with the true distribution.

On the Effect of Anticipation on Reading Times

1 code implementation25 Nov 2022 Tiago Pimentel, Clara Meister, Ethan G. Wilcox, Roger Levy, Ryan Cotterell

We assess the effect of anticipation on reading by comparing how well surprisal and contextual entropy predict reading times on four naturalistic reading datasets: two self-paced and two eye-tracking.

Exhaustivity and anti-exhaustivity in the RSA framework: Testing the effect of prior beliefs

During communication, the interpretation of utterances is sensitive to a listener's probabilistic prior beliefs, something which is captured by one currently influential model of pragmatics, the Rational Speech Act (RSA) framework.
