inference models' shortcut of judging that a premise entails any hypothesis built from its words, which fails on targeted counterexamples.

In natural language processing, lexical overlap heuristic refers to inference models' shortcut of judging that a premise entails any hypothesis built from its words, which fails on targeted counterexamples. This meaning comes from McCoy (2019) in Proceedings of the 57th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics.[1]
