| Challenge: | closed-ended question-based benchmarks struggle with saturation as newer models emerge . crowd-sourced leaderboards rely on costly and slow human judges . |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that leverages collective intelligence from all large language models to evaluate each other. |
| Outcome: | a new framework enables a democratic, pairwise evaluation of all large language models . it achieves 97% correlation with human judgements, while significantly reducing the cost. |

| Challenge: | Existing methods for process-oriented math reward models rely on manual annotation. |
| Approach: | They propose a process-oriented math process reward model called Math-shepherd which assigns a reward score to each step of math problem solutions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model breaks the bottleneck of manual supervision in two scenarios. |
