Language Task

Language task research focuses on developing and evaluating models capable of performing diverse linguistic tasks, ranging from translation and question answering to more nuanced abilities like probabilistic reasoning and contextual code-switching. Current research emphasizes improving model architectures, such as transformers and LSTMs, through techniques like instruction tuning, prompt engineering, and efficient data sampling to enhance performance and address limitations in areas like numerical reasoning and handling low-resource languages. This field is crucial for advancing natural language processing, impacting applications from machine translation and chatbots to more sophisticated tools for analyzing and understanding human language.
