We also provide examples where biased estimators outperform their unbiased counterparts or where unbiased versions are simply not available. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework through experimental results that validate our theoretical findings.

Self-supervised large language models have demonstrated the ability to perform various tasks via in-context learning, but little is known about where the model locates the task with respect to prompt instructions and demonstration examples. In this work, we attempt to characterize the region where large language models transition from recognizing the task to performing the task.
