| Challenge: | generative classifiers exhibit lower sample complexity but higher asymptotic error in simple linear settings, a trade-off that remains unexplored in the transformer era. |
| Approach: | They propose to evaluate generative and discriminative architectures for text classification using a generative model that learns the conditional probability distribution P (y|x) generative models are known to work better in low-data settings, giving rise to the classical 'two regimes' phenomenon for classification. |
| Outcome: | The proposed models show that the classical 'two regimes' manifests distinctly across different architectures and training paradigms. |

| Challenge: | Ordinal classification (OC) is a key task in natural language processing with applications in various domains such as sentiment analysis, rating prediction, and more. |
| Approach: | They propose to tackle ordinal classification (OC) through the implicit semantics of the labels . they propose to use a classical explicit approach and an implicit approach that organically engages the semantics. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods are based on pre-trained language models and offer strategic recommendations based upon specific settings. |
