ScienceArena: Benchmarking LLMs on Latest Scientific Olympiad Competitions
Guangxiang Zhao, Qilong Shi, Xusen Xiao +13
Benchmark saturation and data contamination increasingly obscure genuine scientific reasoning in frontier LLMs. We introduce \textsc{ScienceArena}, an olympiad-style benchmark from…
Harness-Bench: Evaluating Agent Harnesses across Models and Realistic Workflows
Yilun Yao, Xinyu Tan, Chao-Hsuan Liu +10
LLM agents are increasingly deployed as executable systems that use tools, modify workspaces, and produce concrete artifacts. In such workflows, performance depends not only on the…
Thinking with Reasoning Skills: Fewer Tokens, More Accuracy
Guangxiang Zhao, Qilong Shi, Xusen Xiao +3
Reasoning LLMs often spend substantial tokens on long intermediate reasoning traces (e.g., chain-of-thought) when solving new problems. We propose to summarize and store reusable r…
Beyond Parameter Arithmetic: Sparse Complementary Fusion for Distribution-Aware Model Merging
Weihong Lin, Lin Sun, Qilong Shi +6
Model merging has emerged as a promising paradigm for composing the capabilities of large language models by directly operating in weight space, enabling the integration of special…
Uncertainty Under the Curve: A Sequence-Level Entropy Area Metric for Reasoning LLM
Yongfu Zhu, Lin Sun, Guangxiang Zhao +2
In this work, we introduce Entropy Area Score (EAS), a simple yet effective metric to quantify uncertainty in the answer generation process of reasoning large language models (LLMs…
Evaluation is All You Need: Strategic Overclaiming of LLM Reasoning Capabilities Through Evaluation Design
Lin Sun, Weihong Lin, Jinzhu Wu +8
Reasoning models represented by the Deepseek-R1-Distill series have been widely adopted by the open-source community due to their strong performance in mathematics, science, progra…
