Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems face challenges with complex, multi-hop questions, and iterative agentic frameworks such as Search-R1 (Jin et al., 2025) have been proposed to address these complexities. However, such approaches can introduce inefficiencies, including repetitive retri...

Argumentation skills are an essential toolkit for large language models (LLMs). These skills are crucial in various use cases, including self-reflection, debating collaboratively for diverse answers, and countering hate speech. In this paper, we create the first benchmark for a standardized evalu...

Large language models are increasingly used to draft long-form multimodal documents, but their end-to-end performance on professional report generation remains systematically understudied. We introduce AnalystBench, a continually extensible benchmark of 20 real-world report generation tasks groun...

Real-world multi-hop QA is naturally linked with ambiguity, where a single query can trigger multiple reasoning paths that require independent resolution. Since ambiguity can occur at any stage, models must navigate layered uncertainty throughout the entire reasoning chain. Despite its prevalence...

LLM agents with tool-calling capabilities often fail when user instructions are ambiguous or incomplete, leading to incorrect invocations and task failures. Existing approaches operate in unstructured language spaces, generating clarifying questions through prompting strategies that lack principl...
