Pragmatic inference of scalar implicature by LLMs (2024.acl-srw)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing Large Language Models (LLMs) engage in pragmatic inference of scalar implicature, such as some. |
| Approach: | They investigate how Large Language Models (LLMs) engage in pragmatic inference of scalar implicature, such as some. |
| Outcome: | The proposed models interpret some as pragmatic implicature not all in the absence of context, aligning with human language processing. |
Continuous Interpretive Steering for Scalar Diversity (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on pragmatic inference in large language models rely on prompt-based manipulations to elicit a pragmatic interpretation. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that probes graded pragmatic interpretation by treating activation-level steering strength as a continuous experimental variable. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method increases pragmatic interpretations globally but collapses item-level variation whereas graded activation steering yields differentiated interpretive shifts aligned with scalar diversity grades. |
