The paper introduces Stoicheia, a 405M-parameter character-level masked diffusion encoder for Ancient Greek that unifies textual restoration, parsing, and metrical scansion in a single model, outperforming prior systems like Ithaca on benchmark tasks.
This paper probes character-level transformers to investigate whether they encode the Spanish L-shaped morphome, an irregular morphological pattern, as an abstract class or just surface alternations. The authors find that the encoding is item-specific and localized, but does not generalize like human learners.
Presents CHiPS, a lightweight character-level authorship attribution method for Romanian texts that uses character histograms and positional signals without tokenization or pretrained language models, achieving 0.9310 accuracy on a closed-set benchmark.
