Syntax as a Rosetta Stone: Universal Dependencies for In-Context Coptic Translation

This paper introduces a novel in-context learning approach for low-resource Coptic to English machine translation, augmenting inputs with syntactic information from Universal Dependencies parses. Combining this syntactic data with dictionary-based glosses achieves significant gains and sets a new state-of-the-art.

Adaptive Test-Time Compute Allocation with Evolving In-Context Demonstrations

This work introduces an innovative framework for adaptive test-time compute allocation, jointly adjusting where computation is spent and how generation is performed. The method uses a warm-up phase to identify easy queries and then concentrates further computation on unresolved queries, reshaping generation distributions with evolving in-context demonstrations.

LiFT: Does Instruction Fine-Tuning Improve In-Context Learning for Longitudinal Modelling by Large Language Models?

LiFT is a new instruction fine-tuning framework designed to improve in-context learning for large language models on longitudinal NLP tasks, which require reasoning over temporally ordered text. It uses a curriculum that progressively increases temporal difficulty, incorporating few-shot structure and temporal conditioning, consistently outperforming base models across various datasets and parameter sizes.

An Empirical Study of Many-Shot In-Context Learning for Machine Translation of Low-Resource Languages

Este estudo empírico investiga o aprendizado em contexto (ICL) de muitos exemplos para tradução automática de inglês para dez idiomas de baixo recurso. Os achados mostram que o ICL se torna mais eficaz com o aumento do número de exemplos, e a recuperação baseada em BM25 melhora substancialmente a eficiência dos dados.
