| Challenge: | Existing studies have found that when LLMs are given criminal facts and legal rules, then asked whether cases constitute a certain charge, they struggle to understand legal theories and perform basic legal reasoning tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a task to assess LLMs' understanding of legal theories and reasoning capabilities by using a novel framework: Multi-Agent framework for improving complex legal reasoning capability. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves LLMs' understanding of legal theories and reasoning abilities in real-world scenarios. |

| Challenge: | Existing methods for historical document restoration focus on single modality or limited-size restoration, failing to meet practical needs. |
| Approach: | They propose a full-page HDR dataset and an automated HDR solution to replace manual restoration methods. |
| Outcome: | The proposed solution improves OCR accuracy from 46.83% to 84.05% when processing severely damaged documents, with enhancement to 94.25% through human-machine collaboration. |
