BeyondBench: Benchmark-Free Evaluation of Reasoning in Language Models

ICLR 2026poster

Evaluating language models fairly is becoming harder as static benchmarks available on the internet risk contamination by training data. This makes it unclear whether models are truly reasoning or just recalling answers. In this paper, we introduce $\textbf{BeyondBench}$, an evaluation framework tha…

JudgeBoard: Benchmarking and Enhancing Small Language Models for Reasoning Evaluation

AAAI 2026technical

While small language models (SLMs) have shown promise on various reasoning tasks, their ability to judge the correctness of answers remains unclear compared to large language models (LLMs). Prior work on LLM-as-a-judge frameworks typically relies on comparing candidate answers against ground-truth l

Scaling Agentic Reinforcement Learning for Tool-Integrated Reasoning in VLMs

CVPR 2026

While recent vision-language models (VLMs) demonstrate strong image understanding, their ability to "think with images," i.e., to reason through multi-step visual interactions, remains limited. We introduce VISTA-Gym, a scalable training environment for incentivizing tool-integrated visual reasoning

CROSSAGENTIE: Cross-Type and Cross-Task Multi-Agent LLM Collaboration for Zero-Shot Information Extraction

ACL 2025finding

Large language models (LLMs) excel in generating unstructured text. However, they struggle with producing structured output while maintaining accuracy in zero-shot information extraction (IE), such as named entity recognition (NER) and relation extraction (RE). To address these challenges, we propos…

DEBATE, TRAIN, EVOLVE: Self‐Evolution of Language Model Reasoning

EMNLP 2025

Large language models (LLMs) have improved significantly in their reasoning through extensive training on massive datasets. However, relying solely on additional data for improvement is becoming increasingly impractical, highlighting the need for models to autonomously enhance their reasoning withou

Paths Not Taken: Understanding and Mending the Multilingual Factual Recall Pipeline

EMNLP 2025

Multilingual large language models (LLMs) often exhibit factual inconsistencies across languages, usually with better performance in factual recall tasks in high-resource languages than in other languages. The causes of these failures, however, remain poorly understood. Using mechanistic analysis te

TriageAgent: Towards Better Multi-Agents Collaborations for Large Language Model-Based Clinical Triage

EMNLP 2024finding

The global escalation in emergency department patient visits poses significant challenges to efficient clinical management, particularly in clinical triage. Traditionally managed by human professionals, clinical triage is susceptible to substantial variability and high workloads. Although large lang…
