Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) as judges have emerged as a prominent approach for evaluating speech generation quality, yet their ability to assess speaker consistency across multi-turn dialogues remains unexplored. We present SpeakerSleuth , a benchmark evaluating whether LALMs can reliably...

Small language models (SLMs) enable scalable tool-augmented multi-agent systems where multiple SLMs handle subtasks orchestrated by a powerful coordinator. However, they struggle with tool-use tasks, particularly in selecting appropriate tools and identifying correct parameters. A common failure...

Estimating the persuasiveness of messages is critical in various applications, from recommender systems to safety assessment of LLMs. While it is imperative to consider the target persuadee’s characteristics, such as their values, experiences, and reasoning styles, there is currently no establish...

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) allocate substantial inference-time compute to Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, improving performance on mathematics, scientific QA, and tool usage. However, this introduces overthinking: LRMs often reach a correct intermediate solution, continue reasoning, and over...

As emotional support chatbots have recently gained significant traction across both research and industry, a common evaluation strategy has emerged: use help-seeker simulators to interact with supporter chatbots. However, current simulators suffer from two critical limitations: (1) they fail to c...
