| Challenge: | Existing EE datasets define fixed event types and design specific schemas for each of them, failing to cover diverse events emerging from the online text. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a sentence-level dataset to benchmark Open Event Extraction without restricting event types. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset contains more than 42,000 news titles in 34 topics collected from Chinese web pages. |
ExeSQL: Self-Taught Text-to-SQL Models with Execution-Driven Bootstrapping for SQL Dialects (2025.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing text-to-SQL models are limited to SQLite due to dataset limitations . data generated through static prompting is noisy and unreliable, authors say . |
| Approach: | They propose a text-to-SQL framework with execution-driven, agentic bootstrapping . ExeSQl bridges the dialect gap in text- to-Sql, achieving average improvements . |
| Outcome: | ExeSQL bridges the dialect gap in text-to-SQl, with average improvements of 15.2%, 10.38%, and 4.49% over GPT-4o on PostgreSQLE, MySQL, and Oracle. |

| Challenge: | Xu and Peng, 2025) . . SPUR is a comprehensive benchmark for scientific experimental image perception, understanding, and reasoning, comprising 4,264 question-answering (QA) pairs derived from 1,084 expert-curated images. |
| Approach: | They propose to use 4,264 question-answering (QA) pairs derived from 1,084 expert-curated images to evaluate the visual perception of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) . they also propose to utilize cross-panel relation understanding to evaluate MLLM’s ability to decipher intricate cross-panel relations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model is based on 4,264 question-answering pairs derived from 1,084 expert-curated images. |

| Challenge: | APEX optimizes for text-to-image generation by combining learning potential, conflict penalty, and progress need. |
| Approach: | They propose an algorithm that stabilizes heterogeneous rewards and dynamically schedules objectives . they propose a method that achieves better Pareto trade-offs across four heterogenous objectives based on P3 Adaptive Priorities . |
| Outcome: | The proposed algorithm achieves better pareto trade-offs across four heterogeneous objectives while maintaining competitive OCR accuracy. |
