SmartBench: Is Your LLM Truly a Good Chinese Smartphone Assistant? (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing evaluation benchmarks for Large Language Models focus on objective tasks like mathematics and coding in English, which do not reflect the practical use cases of on-device LLMs in real-world mobile scenarios. |
| Approach: | They propose a benchmark to evaluate the capabilities of on-device Large Language Models in Chinese mobile contexts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework evaluates on-device LLMs and MLLMs in Chinese . it provides a standardized framework for evaluating LLM performance on real smartphones . |
Real-time Ad Retrieval via LLM-generative Commercial Intention for Sponsored Search Advertising (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for retrieving documents and ads use one-to-few mappings and time-consuming content extraction. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that leverages LLM-generated commercial intents as an intermediate semantic representation to directly retrieve ads for queries in real-time. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework has been implemented in a real-world online system, handling daily search volumes in billions. |
Not All Experts are Equal: Efficient Expert Pruning and Skipping for Mixture-of-Experts Large Language Models (2024.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) LLMs achieve higher performance with fewer active parameters, but are still difficult to deploy due to their immense parameter sizes. |
| Approach: | They propose expert-level sparsification techniques to enhance the deployment efficiency of large language models by introducing plug-and-play expert pruning and skipping techniques. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods reduce model sizes and increase inference speed while maintaining satisfactory performance across a wide range of tasks. |

| Challenge: | Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in Machine Translation (MT) tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a translation agent system designed for multimodal input that leverages visual and contextual background information to enhance the translation process. |
| Outcome: | The proposed translation agent achieves significantly higher translation quality in subtitle generation and general translation tasks compared to previous state-of-the-art systems. |
