FIRE-Bench: Evaluating AI Agents on the Rediscovery of Scientific Insights
Zhen Wang, Fan Bai, Zhongyan Luo +9
Autonomous agents powered by large language models (LLMs) promise to accelerate scientific discovery end-to-end, but rigorously evaluating their capacity for verifiable discovery r…
Demystifying Training-Time Augmentation for Data-Constrained Language Model Pretraining
Michael K. Chen, Xikun Zhang, Fan Bai +2
As AI labs approach a data ceiling where compute capacity outpaces the rate of new high-quality text generation, language model pretraining is shifting toward a data-constrained, c…
Reading, Not Thinking: Understanding and Bridging the Modality Gap When Text Becomes Pixels in Multimodal LLMs
Kaiser Sun, Xiaochuang Yuan, Hongjun Liu +4
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can process text presented as images, yet they often perform worse than when the same content is provided as textual tokens. We systematica…
Agent-as-Peer-Debriefer: A Multi-Agent Framework with Perspective-Based Refinement for Qualitative Analysis
Zhimin Lin, Kun Cheng, Zhiyao Shu +4
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for qualitative data analysis (QDA), yet their outputs often miss the depth and nuance of human analysis. We argue this gap refle…
Task Matters: Knowledge Requirements Shape LLM Responses to Context-Memory Conflict
Kaiser Sun, Fan Bai, Mark Dredze
Large language models (LLMs) draw on both contextual information and parametric memory, yet these sources can conflict. Prior studies have largely examined this issue in contextual…
LLMs are Better Than You Think: Label-Guided In-Context Learning for Named Entity Recognition
Fan Bai, Hamid Hassanzadeh, Ardavan Saeedi +1
In-context learning (ICL) enables large language models (LLMs) to perform new tasks using only a few demonstrations. However, in Named Entity Recognition (NER), existing ICL method…
