OpenForecast: A Large-Scale Open-Ended Event Forecasting Dataset (2025.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing closed-ended event forecasting methods are constrained by a limited answer space. |
| Approach: | They introduce OpenForecast, a large-scale open-ended dataset with three open-ending event forecasting tasks and an automatic LLM-based method for complex events. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can be used to evaluate the ability of complex event forecasting of large language models. |
Beyond Inherent Cognition Biases in LLM-Based Event Forecasting: A Multi-Cognition Agentic Framework (2025.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large Language Models exhibit human-like cognitive biases in event forecasting . a human-curated dataset reveals significant cognitive bias in LLMs . |
| Approach: | They propose a human-curated dataset to explore LLMs' cognitive biases . they leverage LLM participants to act as multi-cognition event participants . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework alleviates cognitive biases in LLMs and offers diverse perspectives. |
Benchmarking the Fine-Grained Discriminability in Image-Text Retrieval via Controlled Contrastive Differences (2026.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing cross-modal image-text retrieval models often retrieve samples with inconsistent details. |
| Approach: | They propose two fine-grained image-text retrieval benchmarks that incorporate extensive contrastive samples with one controlled contrastive difference from its anchor. |
| Outcome: | Extensive experiments show that contrastive samples can significantly degrade retrieval performance. |
ASCM: An Answer Space Clustered Prompting Method without Answer Engineering (2022.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Pre-trained language models have shown a great impact on NLP tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose an answer space clustered prompting model and a synonym initialization method that automatically categorizes all answer tokens in a semantic-clustered embedding space. |
| Outcome: | Experiments show that the proposed method outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in few-shot settings. |
