We benchmark seven models from five providers on 273 validated court decisions from Ukraine's state registry (EDRSR), measuring tokenizer fertility and zero-shot performance on three tasks.
To support reproducibility and address the absence of Ukrainian from legal NLP benchmarks, we release a public dataset of 14,452 court decisions spanning 2008-2026, annotated with seven outcome labels across three temporal epochs that…

Pairwise PreferenceLlm As JudgeLaw
We propose RLearner-LLM with Hybrid-DPO: an automated preference pipeline that fuses a DeBERTa-v3 NLI signal with a verifier LLM score, removing human annotation while overcoming the "alignment tax" of single-signal optimization.
Our Qwen3-8B RLearner-LLM wins 95% of pairwise comparisons against its own SFT baseline; GPT-4o-mini in turn wins 95% against our concise output -- alongside the 69% win the same judge gives a verbose SFT over our DPO model, this replicates…

We introduce SaFE-Scale, a framework for measuring how clinical LLM safety changes across model scale, evidence quality, retrieval strategy, context exposure, and inference-time compute.
To instantiate this framework, we introduce RadSaFE-200, a Radiology Safety-Focused Evaluation benchmark of 200 multiple-choice questions with clinician-defined clean evidence, conflict evidence, and option-level labels for high-risk error,…

Agents that manipulate objects, navigate software, coordinate with others, or design experiments require predictive environment models, yet the term world model carries different meanings across research communities.
Using this framework, we synthesize over 400 works and summarize more than 100 representative systems spanning model-based reinforcement learning, video generation, web and GUI agents, multi-agent social simulation, and AI-driven scientific…
In agentic workflows, LLMs frequently process retrieved contexts that are legally protected from further training.
The framework instruments preference data by pairing document triggers with feedback that rewards a distinctive stylistic response, inducing a latent trigger-conditioned preference if such data are used in training.
We present the Strategic Courtroom Framework, a multi-agent simulation environment in which prosecution and defense teams composed of trait-conditioned Large Language Model (LLM) agents engage in iterative, round-based legal argumentation.
Agents are instantiated using nine interpretable traits organized into four archetypes, enabling systematic control over rhetorical style and strategic orientation.
Via the trigonometric series, we use the distance preference characterized by these centers to score keys according to their positions, and also leverage Q/K norms as an additional signal for importance estimation.
We close with open problems that emerge from this synthesis, including distillation scaling laws, uncertainty-aware feedback, agent-level distillation, and the growing overlap between knowledge distillation and RL.
However, high-quality SFT data in knowledge-intensive domains such as humanities, social sciences, medicine, law, and finance is scarce because expert curation is expensive, privacy constraints are strict, and label consistency is hard to…
In this paper, we propose Agent Q-Mix, a reinforcement learning framework that reformulates topology selection as a cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) problem.
Across seven core benchmarks in coding, reasoning, and mathematics, Agent Q-Mix achieves the highest average accuracy compared to existing methods while demonstrating superior token efficiency and robustness against agent failure.

We propose a courtroom-style multi-agent framework, PROClaim, that reformulates verification as a structured, adversarial deliberation.
In zero-shot evaluations on the Check-COVID benchmark, PROClaim achieves 81.7% accuracy, outperforming standard multi-agent debate by 10.0 percentage points, with P-RAG driving the primary performance gains (+7.5 pp).
To bridge this gap, we present XpertBench, a high-fidelity benchmark engineered to assess LLMs across authentic professional domains.
To facilitate scalable yet human-aligned assessment, we introduce ShotJudge, a novel evaluation paradigm that employs LLM judges calibrated with expert few-shot exemplars to mitigate self-rewarding biases.

Swiss law requires the integration of ecological, social, and economic sustainability requirements into tender evaluations in the format of criteria that have to be fulfilled by a bidder.
We evaluate the system through a combination of automated quality checks, including an LLM-based evaluation component, and expert comparison against a manually curated gold standard.
We further demonstrate that constructing DPO preference pairs from NSRSA verification teaches the model to distinguish sound from flawed reasoning (reward accuracy 46% to 63%).
LLM coding benchmarks face a credibility crisis: widespread solution leakage and test quality issues undermine SWE-bench Verified, while existing detection methods--paraphrase consistency, n-gram overlap, perplexity analysis--never directly…
