abstract
The unprecedented performance of large language models (LLMs) necessitates improvements in evaluations. Rather than merely exploring the breadth of LLM abilities, we believe meticulous and thoughtful designs are essential to thorough, unbiased, and applicable evaluations. Given the importance of world knowledge to LLMs, we construct a Knowledge-oriented LLM Assessment benchmark (KoLA), in which we carefully design three crucial factors: (1) For \textbf{ability modeling}, we mimic human cognition to form a four-level taxonomy of knowledge-related abilities, covering $19$ tasks. (2) For \textbf{data}, to ensure fair comparisons, we use both Wikipedia, a corpus prevalently pre-trained by LLMs, along with continuously collected emerging corpora, aiming to evaluate the capacity to handle unseen data and evolving knowledge. (3) For \textbf{evaluation criteria}, we adopt a contrastive system, including overall standard scores for better numerical comparability across tasks and models and a unique self-contrast metric for automatically evaluating knowledge-creating ability. We evaluate $28$ open-source and commercial LLMs and obtain some intriguing findings. The KoLA dataset and open-participation leaderboard are publicly released at https://kola.xlore.cn and will be continuously updated to provide references for developing LLMs and knowledge-related systems.

Computational models of pragmatic reasoning with flexible generation of meaning and expression alternatives
Combining language-model generation with rule-based selection reproduces several pragmatic phenomena, but the language models only worked reliably as idea generators, not as judges of formal linguistic properties.

Court of LLMs: Evidence-Augmented Generation via Multi-LLM Collaboration for Text-Attributed Graph Anomaly Detection
CoLL uses two specialized LLM 'prosecutors' and an LLM 'judge' to generate textual anomaly evidence, which a gated GNN then fuses with graph structure for state-of-the-art text-attributed graph anomaly detection.

Scaling LLM-Driven Multi-Agent Systems: Design Principles and Architectural Scalability Analysis
Architecturally scaling LLM multi-agent systems raises accuracy at near-linear cost only above a model-capability threshold, peaks at intermediate complexity, and never fixes poor run-to-run consistency.

Not All Needles Are Found: How Fact Distribution and Don't Make It Up Prompts Shape Retrieval, Reasoning, and Hallucination in Long-Context LLMs
On a new extended needle-in-a-haystack benchmark, explicit anti-hallucination prompts and dispersed fact placement cause some long-context LLMs to over-refuse or collapse in accuracy, while others remain robust.

Mitigating Geospatial Knowledge Hallucination in Large Language Models: Benchmarking and Dynamic Factuality Aligning
A new benchmark called GEOHALUBENCH measures how often LLMs invent, omit, or confuse real-world places and relations, and a dynamic-beta KTO method reduces these errors on the benchmark.

Find Before You Fine-Tune: A Diagnostic Study of Small LLMs for Cybersecurity QA
Pre-fine-tuning scores on a three-task diagnostic can predict the direction of post-fine-tuning change in small LLMs for cybersecurity QA, but not the magnitude or rank-preservation, which is regime-dependent.
