A curated list of research papers in grounding. Link to the code if available is also present.
Have a look at SCOPE.md to get familiar with what grounding means and the tasks considered in this repository.
To maintaing the quality of the repo, I have gone through all the listed papers at least once before adding them to ensure their relevance to grounding. However, I might have missed some paper(s) or added some irrelevant paper(s). Feel free to open an issue in that case. I will go through the paper and then add / remove it.
Feel free to contact me via email (ark.sadhu2904@gmail.com) or open an issue or submit a pull request. To add a new paper via pull request:
- Fork the repo, change readme. Put the new paper under the correct heading, and place it at the correct chronological position.
- Copy its reference in MLA format
- Put ** around the title
- Provide link to the paper (arxiv/semantic scholar/conference proceedings).
- If code or website exists, link that too.
- Send a pull request. Ideally, I will review the request within a week.
