Title of paper "Causal Estimation of Tokenisation Bias" and schematic of how we define tokenisation bias, which is the causal effect we are interested in.
A string may get 17 times less probability if tokenised as two symbols (e.g., β¨he, lloβ©) than as one (e.g., β¨helloβ©)βby an LM trained from scratch in each situation! Our new ACL paper proposes an observational method to estimate this causal effect! Longer thread soon!

Being in a hot air balloon in Albuquerque really makes one ponder *how to efficiently pick the best translation candidate without running expensive evaluation metrics on all of them.*
