Excited to share that our group will present 9 papers at this year's ACM Symposium on Eye Tracking Research & Applications (ETRA) in Tokyo!

We will post summaries of each paper in the coming weeks, but here's a quick sneak peek 👀

Sometimes I am a Tree: Data Drives Unstable Hierarchical Generalization Language models (LMs), like other neural networks, often favor shortcut heuristics based on surface-level patterns. Although LMs behave like n-gram models early in training, they must eventually learn...

Transformer LMs get pretty far by acting like ngram models, so why do they learn syntax? A new paper by sunnytqin.bsky.social, me, and @dmelis.bsky.social illuminates grammar learning in a whirlwind tour of generalization, grokking, training dynamics, memorization, and random variation. #mlsky #nlp
