Meaning Beyond Truth Conditions: Evaluating Discourse Level Understanding via Anaphora Accessibility (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing assessments of understanding at the lexical and sentence levels are limited to lexica and sentence level, but few of them target whether LLMs accurately represent and update states of natural language discourse. |
| Approach: | They propose anaphora accessibility as a diagnostic for assessing discourse understanding . they use a dataset inspired by theoretical research in dynamic semantics to evaluate human and LLM performance. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset shows that humans and LLMs align on some tasks and diverge on others. |
