EoT: Evolution of Thoughts for Complex Reasoning Tasks (2025.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies focus on ensuring behavior fidelity, factuality or reliability in generated reasoning processes, but they neglect the simultaneous optimization of all three aspects for each thought. |
| Approach: | They propose a thought assessment method that is sensitive to knowledge and LLM behaviors . they use three scorers to evaluate each thought by considering domain context, semantic alignment, and behavior impact. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms advanced approaches in knowledge-based complex tasks. |
KaeDe: Progressive Generation of Logical Forms via Knowledge-Aware Question Decomposition for Improved KBQA (2025.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for answering natural language questions are difficult to generate . lack of a logical form for complex graphs can negatively impact overall performance . |
| Approach: | They propose a generate-then-retrieve method that converts questions into structured LF queries . they propose to combine knowledge-aware question decomposition and progressive LF generation . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance on WebQuestionSP and ComplexWebQuestions benchmarks. |
