• Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can be used as accessible and intelligent chatbots by constructing natural language queries and directly inputting the prompt into the large language model. However, different prompt' constructions often lead to uncertainty in the answers and thus make it hard to utilize the specific knowledge of LLMs (like ChatGPT). To alleviate this, we use an interpretable structure to explain the prompt learning principle in LLMs, which certificates that the effectiveness of language models is determined by position changes of the task's related tokens. Therefore, we propose MTPrompt, a multi-dimensional task prompt learning method consisting based on task-related object, summary, and task description information. By automatically building and searching for appropriate prompts, our proposed MTPrompt achieves the best results on few-shot samples setting and five different datasets. In addition, we demonstrate the effectiveness and stability of our method in different experimental settings and ablation experiments. In interaction with large language models, embedding more task-related information into prompts will make it easier to stimulate knowledge embedded in large language models.

• Few-Shot Cross-Lingual Transfer for Prompting Large Language Models in Low-Resource Languages [0.0]
  "prompting" is where a user provides a description of a task and some completed examples of the task to a PLM as context before prompting the PLM to perform the task on a new example. We consider three methods: few-shot prompting (prompt), language-adaptive fine-tuning (LAFT), and neural machine translation (translate) We find that translate and prompt settings are a compute-efficient and cost-effective method of few-shot prompting for the selected low-resource languages.
