| Challenge: | Rapid rise in AI conference submissions has driven increasing exploration of large language models (LLMs) for peer review support. |
| Approach: | They propose a peer review benchmarking tool based on paper-specific rubrics and a rubric-guided framework that decomposes reviewing into drafting and grounding stages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms baselines with stronger/larger backbones in both alignment with human judgments and rubric-based review quality across 8 dimensions. |
