RFS-Guard: Detecting Reasoning Hallucinations via Cross-Phase Routing Focus in Large Reasoning Models (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large reasoning models (LRMs) generate intermediate reasoning traces before the final answer, yet they remain vulnerable to reasoning hallucinations such as subtle arithmetic errors. |
| Approach: | They propose a Routing Focus Score (RFS) that measures how strongly cross-step attention routing aligns with semantic proximity derived from hidden-state cosine similarity. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework detects and localizes hallucinations without external tools or repeated sampling. |

| Challenge: | Existing document question answering methods reduce inference costs and input tokens. |
| Approach: | They propose a retrieval-augmented generation method that automatically extracts useful entities and generates summaries from documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method surpasses baseline retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and long-context question answering (LC) methods achieve higher accuracy by processing entire documents, but at the cost of increased computational Corresponding authors. |
HierDiffuse: Progressive Diffusion for Robust Interest Fusion in CTR Prediction (2025.emnlp-industry)

Ziheng Ni, Congcong Liu, Yuying Chen, Zhiwei Fang, Changping Peng, Zhangang Lin, Ching Law, Jingping Shao
| Challenge: | Existing approaches fuse long-term behavioral profiles and short-term interactions, suffering from representational misalignment and noise in transient signals. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that redefines interest fusion as a hierarchical denoising process through diffusion models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework redefines interest fusion as a hierarchical denoising process through diffusion models. |
Rethinking Cross-Subject Data Splitting for Brain-to-Text Decoding (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies have successfully decoded natural language from non-invasive brain signals . current dataset splitting methods suffer from data leakage problem . |
| Approach: | They propose a right cross-subject data splitting criterion without data leakage for decoding fMRI and EEG signal to text. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method overfits and overestimates brain-to-text decoding models. |
LocAgent: Graph-Guided LLM Agents for Code Localization (2025.acl-long)

Zhaoling Chen, Robert Tang, Gangda Deng, Fang Wu, Jialong Wu, Zhiwei Jiang, Viktor Prasanna, Arman Cohan, Xingyao Wang
| Challenge: | Existing approaches struggle to efficiently navigate complex codebases when identifying relevant code snippets. |
| Approach: | They propose a graph-guided agent framework that addresses code localization through a distributed graph-based agent. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework improves accuracy on real-world benchmarks and can be used to locate code snippets at a cost of 86%. |
