Outcome Accuracy is Not Enough: Aligning the Reasoning Process of Reward Models

Binghai Wang, Yantao Liu, Yuxuan Liu +13

Generative Reward Models (GenRMs) and LLM-as-a-Judge exhibit deceptive alignment by producing correct judgments for incorrect reasons, as they are trained and evaluated to prioriti…

CL-bench: A Benchmark for Context Learning

Shihan Dou, Ming Zhang, Zhangyue Yin +24

Current language models (LMs) excel at reasoning over prompts using pre-trained knowledge. However, real-world tasks are far more complex and context-dependent: models must learn f…

OctoBench: Benchmarking Scaffold-Aware Instruction Following in Repository-Grounded Agentic Coding

Deming Ding, Shichun Liu, Enhui Yang +12

Modern coding scaffolds turn LLMs into capable software agents, but their ability to follow scaffold-specified instructions remains under-examined, especially when constraints are…

Which Reasoning Trajectories Teach Students to Reason Better? A Simple Metric of Informative Alignment

Yuming Yang, Mingyoung Lai, Wanxu Zhao +13

Long chain-of-thought (CoT) trajectories provide rich supervision signals for distilling reasoning from teacher to student LLMs. However, both prior work and our experiments show t…

Locate, Steer, and Improve: A Practical Survey of Actionable Mechanistic Interpretability in Large Language Models

Hengyuan Zhang, Zhihao Zhang, Mingyang Wang +26

Mechanistic Interpretability (MI) has emerged as a vital approach to demystify the opaque decision-making of Large Language Models (LLMs). However, existing reviews primarily treat…

TaxoBench: Can Deep Research Agents Retrieve and Organize? Evaluating the Synthesis Gap with Expert Taxonomies

Ming Zhang, Jiabao Zhuang, Wenqing Jing +19

Deep Research Agents increasingly automate survey writing, yet existing benchmarks do not jointly test whether they retrieve the papers experts consider essential and organize thos…
