This work concerns our submission for the Multilingual track of the 2026 BabyLM Challenge. We improve on our baseline using data that has been summarized and translated by an LLM, showing that higher-quality data can come from synthetic sources. We further improve with 2 simple changes: using a larger model, and using...
In so-called "Industry 4.0," integrated sensors, analytics tools, and other digital technologies supplement industrial workflows, potentiating enhanced visibility and automation. Prognostics and health management (PHM) and natural language processing (NLP) practitioners alike have explored the application of large lang...
Benchmarks shape how model capabilities are measured and interpreted, yet their scores can obscure whose conventions, contexts, and judgments define successful performance. We introduce a user-centric audit framework that distinguishes users who contribute benchmark content from those whose needs evaluation results are...
Transformers are intuitively considered to be efficient at copying from their inputs. We actually show that the ability of LLMs to copy in context can be improved through explicit modeling. We propose Copy-Paste Language Models (CPLMs), which add a lightweight Copy-Paste head to the conventional language modeling (LM)...

Transformer language models develop attention heads that specialize in syntactic relations, for example, attending from verbs to their subjects. Do these heads play a causal role in the model's syntactic predictions? Evidence for such a role is mixed to negative: even when we force these heads to attend to a distractor...
Transformers are efficient to pre-train at scale because attention permits parallel computation across sequence positions, but long-context inference requires increasingly large KV caches. Efficient recurrent alternatives reduce the asymptotic complexity of inference, but their sequential dependence limits token-wise p...
While work on LLM-based regression has largely focused on scalar prediction, multi-output text regression remains less explored. We present DualView, a parameter-efficient approach to leverage LLMs for multi-output text regression. \method{} first extracts broad and output-specific representations from a frozen LLM, th...
Rare but severe failures of large language models can become practically significant at deployment scale. Estimating their probabilities with direct Monte Carlo sampling is highly inefficient, while proposal-based methods typically require auxiliary learning of an additional proposal distribution. We introduce \textbf{...
Many sentiment datasets use one annotator for each item, so the test labels show the conventions of that person. We build a Nepali benchmark from two annotators who labelled the same sentences blind. They labelled 5,614 sentences from tweets of Nepali public figures on a five-point scale. We keep only the 3,189 sentenc...
Evaluation of large language models (LLMs) remains largely pre-scientific: it involves many design decisions, with little guidance on how to make them. These choices can substantially affect measured performance and, consequently, decisions about subsequent pretraining. To identify effective evaluation setups, we inves...
Harness optimization improves LLMs by refining reusable prompts and scaffolding, yet requires further adaptation for program generation tasks such as text-to-SQL and text-to-Python. Existing methods often rely on LLM reflectors to propose harness updates, which can fix observed failures but also disrupt previously corr...
Meta-evaluation of text generation metrics and LLM-judges is primarily conducted using metric-human correlations. However, prior work has shown that correlation is not an appropriate estimate of a metric's evaluation capability and can be unstable across evaluation settings, such as different datasets or languages. The...

We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.
A new computational approach reveals how cells communicate to assemble into tissues. This could accelerate stem cell engineering, improve disease models, and inform therapies.
Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
