Papers
- MMLU-ProX: A Multilingual Benchmark for Advanced Large Language Model Evaluation (2025 · 75 citations)
Evaluating LLMs across languages has two gaps. Demanding reasoning benchmarks such as MMLU-Pro exist mainly in English. Multilingual suites like Global-MMLU combine translation sources of uneven quality and pose easier questions. The authors address both with MMLU-ProX, which carries the ten-option, reasoning-heavy… - Seeing is Believing, but How Much? A Comprehensive Analysis of Verbalized Calibration in Vision-Language Models (2025 · 11 citations)
Vision-language models (VLMs) can state in plain language how sure they are of an answer. This study asks whether that stated confidence actually tracks how often they are correct. The authors evaluate verbalized calibration across three model families: instruction-tuned, text-reasoning, and visual-reasoning… - Thinking Out Loud: Do Reasoning Models Know When They're Right? (2025 · 9 citations)
The paper asks whether large reasoning models (LRMs), which display apparent self-reflection in long chains of thought, also report their own confidence more accurately. - The Confidence Dichotomy: Analyzing and Mitigating Miscalibration in Tool-Use Agents (2026 · 2 citations)
The paper asks whether tool use always worsens how well LLM agents' stated confidence matches their real accuracy, or whether the effect depends on the tool. - Code-Switching Information Retrieval: Benchmarks, Analysis, and the Limits of Current Retrievers (2026 · 1 citation)
Search engines and RAG pipelines are mostly built and tested on single-language queries, yet many bilingual users mix languages when they search. - How to Improve LLMs' Performance on Specific Languages: A Perspective on LLM-Derived Language Similarity (2026)
LLMs perform unevenly across languages. When target-language training data is scarce, practitioners usually pick a related "donor" language for fine-tuning based on linguistic typology. This work questions whether typology matches how models themselves perceive language similarity. The authors propose three… - Taming Object Hallucinations with Verified Atomic Confidence Estimation (2026)
Multimodal LLMs often describe objects, properties or relations that are not in the image. They are also easily swayed by small changes in how a question is worded. The authors propose TACO, a training-free pipeline that has the model check its own answers, with no external detectors or captioners. TACO works in four…
