s3: You Don’t Need That Much Data to Train a Search Agent via RL

EMNLP 2025

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems empower large language models (LLMs) to access external knowledge during inference. Recent advances have enabled LLMs to act as search agents via reinforcement learning (RL), improving information acquisition through multi-turn interactions with retrieval

Topic-Oriented Open Relation Extraction with A Priori Seed Generation

EMNLP 2024main

The field of open relation extraction (ORE) has recently observed significant advancement thanks to the growing capability of large language models (LLMs). Nevertheless, challenges persist when ORE is performed on specific topics. Existing methods give sub-optimal results in five dimensions: factual…

ChemNER: Fine-Grained Chemistry Named Entity Recognition with Ontology-Guided Distant Supervision

EMNLP 2021main

Scientific literature analysis needs fine-grained named entity recognition (NER) to provide a wide range of information for scientific discovery. For example, chemistry research needs to study dozens to hundreds of distinct, fine-grained entity types, making consistent and accurate annotation diffic…
