Papers
- Pragmatics in the Era of Large Language Models: A Survey on Datasets, Evaluation, Opportunities and Challenges (2025 · 49 citations)
The survey examines how the pragmatic competence of language models is evaluated, that is, their ability to understand meaning that depends on context and does not follow from the literal content of words. - Exploring Generative Process Reward Modeling for Semi-Structured Data: A Case Study of Table Question Answering (2026 · 2 citations)
Process reward models (PRMs) score each step of a candidate solution and then pick the best answer. They have worked well for math, but nobody had tested them on reasoning over semi-structured data. This short paper is the first systematic look at PRMs for table question answering (TQA). Tables add specific… - Table Question Answering in the Era of Large Language Models: A Comprehensive Survey of Tasks, Methods, and Evaluation (2026 · 2 citations)
LLMs and multimodal LLMs have pushed table question answering (TQA) forward quickly. Yet the field still has no unified account of how tasks are defined, what makes them hard, and where methods are heading, including newer threads like reinforcement learning. Zhou, Ma, Friedrich and Mesgar address this with a survey… - Enhancing English Writing Proficiency in China's Polytechnic Students An In-Depth Literature Review on the Application of the Input Hypothesis (2023 · 2 citations)
This paper by Wei Zhou is a literature review. It asks whether Stephen Krashen's Input Hypothesis can help students at Chinese polytechnic (higher vocational) colleges write better in English. These students need practical English at work, such as reading product descriptions and manuals and writing reports. Many of… - HAD: HAllucination Detection Language Models Based on a Comprehensive Hallucination Taxonomy (2026 · 1 citation)
Large language models often produce fluent text that is wrong or that drifts from the given instruction or input. - Mem2ActBench: A Benchmark for Evaluating Long-Term Memory Utilization in Task-Oriented Autonomous Agents (2026 · 1 citation)
Most memory benchmarks for LLM agents check whether a system can recall a stored fact when asked directly. - CARL: Constraint-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Planning with LLMs (2026)
LLMs often produce plans that look plausible but break the conditions stated in a request, such as a budget, a travel mode, or a dietary preference. - STAPO: Selective Trajectory-Aware Policy Optimization for LLM Agent Training (2026)
Agents built on LLMs and trained with reinforcement learning for long-horizon tasks get sparse, delayed rewards.
