Investigating representations of verb bias in neural language models (2020.emnlp-main)

| Challenge: | Languages typically provide more than one grammatical construction to express certain types of messages. |
| Approach: | They propose a large benchmark dataset containing 50K human judgments for 5K distinct sentence pairs in the English dative alternation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms recurrent architectures even under comparable parameter and training settings. |
Causal interventions expose implicit situation models for commonsense language understanding (2023.findings-acl)

| Challenge: | Classical psycholinguistic accounts have suggested that world knowledge enters into language understanding through structured schemas called situation models. |
| Approach: | They apply causal intervention techniques to transformer models to analyze performance on the Winograd Schema Challenge . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model performs well on the Winograd Schema Challenge . |
