AgentHorizon: Evaluating Agentic Judges for Long-Horizon Computer-Use Tasks

Xing Han Lù, Dheeraj Vattikonda, Sina Hajimiri +7

Computer-use agents are capable of completing complex tasks, increasing the use of automatic judges to determine success, either for training or for evaluation without human involv…

CRAG-MM-Diagnostics: Enabling Stage-Wise Analysis of Knowledge-Intensive VQA

Hanseok Oh, Parishad BehnamGhader, Benno Krojer +4

Knowledge-Intensive Visual Question Answering (KI-VQA) benchmarks evaluate Vision-Language Models (VLMs) as multimodal knowledge assistants by requiring external information beyond…

LLM2Vec-Gen: Generative Embeddings from Large Language Models

Parishad BehnamGhader, Vaibhav Adlakha, Fabian David Schmidt +3

Fine-tuning LLM-based text embedders via contrastive learning maps inputs and outputs into a new representational space, discarding the LLM's output semantics. We propose LLM2Vec-G…

DeepSeek-R1 Thoughtology: Let's think about LLM Reasoning

Sara Vera Marjanović, Arkil Patel, Vaibhav Adlakha +14

Large Reasoning Models like DeepSeek-R1 mark a fundamental shift in how LLMs approach complex problems. Instead of directly producing an answer for a given input, DeepSeek-R1 creat…

Exploiting Instruction-Following Retrievers for Malicious Information Retrieval

Parishad BehnamGhader, Nicholas Meade, Siva Reddy

Instruction-following retrievers have been widely adopted alongside LLMs in real-world applications, but little work has investigated the safety risks surrounding their increasing…

LLM2Vec: Large Language Models Are Secretly Powerful Text Encoders

Parishad BehnamGhader, Vaibhav Adlakha, Marius Mosbach +3

Large decoder-only language models (LLMs) are the state-of-the-art models on most of today's NLP tasks and benchmarks. Yet, the community is only slowly adopting these models for t…

Evaluating Correctness and Faithfulness of Instruction-Following Models for Question Answering

Vaibhav Adlakha, Parishad BehnamGhader, Xing Han Lu +2

Retriever-augmented instruction-following models are attractive alternatives to fine-tuned approaches for information-seeking tasks such as question answering (QA). By simply prepe…

Can Retriever-Augmented Language Models Reason? The Blame Game Between the Retriever and the Language Model

Parishad BehnamGhader, Santiago Miret, Siva Reddy

Augmenting pretrained language models with retrievers has shown promise in effectively solving common NLP problems, such as language modeling and question answering. In this paper,…

An Analysis of Social Biases Present in BERT Variants Across Multiple Languages

Aristides Milios, Parishad BehnamGhader

Although large pre-trained language models have achieved great success in many NLP tasks, it has been shown that they reflect human biases from their pre-training corpora. This bia…
