Probing Large Language Models for Scalar Adjective Lexical Semantics and Scalar Diversity Pragmatics (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Scalar adjectives describe different domain scales and vary in intensity . they can be triggered by scalar adjective and require listeners to reason pragmatically about them. |
| Approach: | They probe different families of Large Language Models for their knowledge of the lexical semantics of scalar adjectives and one specific aspect of their pragmatics. |
| Outcome: | The proposed models encode rich lexical-semantic information about scalar adjectives but lack a good understanding of skalar diversity. |
