| Challenge: | Existing benchmarks focus more on end-to-end performance, but neglect the underlying principles of knowledge acquisition and generalization. |
| Approach: | They propose a benchmark specifically designed to explore the problem-solving principles by decomposing 6.5K visual math problems into 10.9K step-level questions for evaluation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed benchmark covers 6.5K visual math problems and 10.9K step-level questions spanning 5 layers of knowledge granularity and 67 hierarchical knowledge concepts. |

Hong Ting Tsang, Jiaxin Bai, Haoyu Huang, Qiao Xiao, Tianshi Zheng, Baixuan Xu, Shujie Liu, Yangqiu Song
| Challenge: | Currently, knowledge graphs are decoupled from their downstream application, resulting in suboptimal graph structures. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework to directly optimize KG construction for task performance using Reinforcement Learning (RL). |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves performance across multiple QA benchmarks and consistently achieves significant performance gains over task-agnostic baseline graphs. |
MedCite: Can Language Models Generate Verifiable Text for Medicine? (2025.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing LLM-based medical question answering systems lack citation generation and evaluation capabilities, raising concerns about their adoption in practice. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that facilitates the design and evaluation of LLM citations for medical tasks and a retrieval-citation method that generates high-quality citation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves superior citation precision and recall improvements compared to strong baseline methods and correlates well with annotation results from professional experts. |
