arXiv Paper Analyzes Topology of Dependency Trees Across 124 Languages

A research paper examines syntactic dependency trees drawn from 124 languages chosen for typological, genetic and geographic diversity. The author investigates the structural properties of these trees, noting that the organizing principles behind their topology are still not well understood. The work aims to identify regularities that hold across languages.

Study Finds Data, Not Typology, Shapes Language Models' Word Order Preferences

A new arXiv paper examines word order preferences in decoder-only language models, testing 192 artificial languages alongside typologically diverse natural languages. The authors report a consistent left-branching bias in the models and argue that training data, rather than linguistic typology, shapes these preferences. The study also explores how this bias relates to model performance on right-branching languages.
