Language Model Sentence Completion with a Parser-Driven Rhetorical Control Method

AbstractControlled text generation (CTG) seeks to guide large language model (LLM) output, that statistical language generation would conform to desired criteria. The current study presents a novel CTG algorithm that enforces adherence toward specific rhetorical relations in an LLM sentence-completion context by a parser-driven decoding scheme that requires no model fine-tuning. The method is validated both with automatic and human evaluation.
