Big-Big-SycoBench: A Benchmark to Detect Sycophancy Through Model Responses to Valid vs. Invalid Arguments

Marthe Ballon, Arne Vanhoyweghen, Seorin Kim +11

Sycophancy in large language models risks amplifying unsupported claims or beliefs across the knowledge ecosystem as these systems increasingly contribute to research synthesis, ev…

How Much Does a Reasoning Summary Reveal? An Observability Ladder for Large Language Models

Andres Algaba, Francesca Carlon, Lynn Delcon +3

Large language models often show users a final response and a short reasoning summary while the full reasoning trace stays hidden. We introduce an observability ladder that holds e…

Probing the Trajectories of Reasoning Traces in Large Language Models

Marthe Ballon, Brecht Verbeken, Brecht F. Verbeken +2

Large language models (LLMs) increasingly solve difficult problems by producing "reasoning traces" before emitting a final response. However, it remains unclear how accuracy and de…

Benchmarks Saturate When The Model Gets Smarter Than The Judge

Marthe Ballon, Andres Algaba, Brecht Verbeken +2

Benchmarks are important tools to track progress in the development of Large Language Models (LLMs), yet inaccuracies in datasets and evaluation methods consistently undermine thei…

Estimating problem difficulty without ground truth using Large Language Model comparisons

Marthe Ballon, Andres Algaba, Brecht Verbeken +2

Recent advances in the finetuning of large language models (LLMs) have significantly improved their performance on established benchmarks, emphasizing the need for increasingly dif…

The relationship between reasoning and performance in large language models--o3 (mini) thinks harder, not longer

Marthe Ballon, Andres Algaba, Vincent Ginis

Large language models have demonstrated remarkable progress in mathematical reasoning, leveraging chain-of-thought and reinforcement learning. However, many open questions remain r…
