Human EvalAutomatic Metrics Tool Use Coding
  • Large language model (LLM)-based agents are increasingly used to solve complex tasks involving tool use, such as web browsing, code execution, and data analysis.
  • However, current evaluation benchmarks do not adequately assess their ability to solve real-world tasks that require synthesizing information from multiple sources and inferring insights beyond simple fact retrieval.

Pairwise PreferenceRlaif Or Synthetic Feedback Human Eval General
  • Preference-based RL offers an appealing alternative by learning from human preferences over pairs of behavioural outcomes.
  • More recently, RL from AI feedback (RLAIF) has demonstrated that large language models (LLMs) can generate preference labels at scale, mitigating the reliance on human annotators.

Validating Political Position Predictions of Arguments

Jordan Robinson, Angus R. Williams, Katie Atkinson, Anthony G. Cohn · Feb 20, 2026

Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference Human Eval General
  • Real-world knowledge representation often requires capturing subjective, continuous attributes -- such as political positions -- that conflict with pairwise validation, the widely accepted gold standard for human evaluation.
  • We address this challenge through a dual-scale validation framework applied to political stance prediction in argumentative discourse, combining pointwise and pairwise human annotation.

Human EvalAutomatic Metrics Law
  • Vichara surpasses existing judgment prediction benchmarks on both datasets, with GPT-4o mini achieving the highest performance (F1: 81.5 on PredEx, 80.3 on ILDC_expert), followed by Llama-3.1-8B.
  • Human evaluation of the generated explanations across Clarity, Linking, and Usefulness metrics highlights GPT-4o mini's superior interpretability.

Human EvalSimulation Env Long Horizon Coding
  • Within this framework, we construct framing-sensitive agent personas by fine-tuning language models with framing-conditioned loss attenuation, inducing targeted biases while preserving overall task competence.
