A Training-Free, Alignment-Free Approach to Corporate Intelligence: Application to SEC Filings

The paper introduces a training‑free, alignment‑free method for corporate intelligence that uses deterministic sparse seed vectors to hash word strings into a fixed high‑dimensional basis. By accumulating these seed vectors across sentence contexts, the authors create corpus‑specific semantic signatures that enable rapid document comparison, issuer fingerprinting, vocabulary shift tracking, and thematic sentence extraction—all on standard CPU hardware. Applied to a multi‑year set of SEC filings, the approach reveals distinct semantic profiles for major corporate events such as Boeing’s 737 MAX crisis, Intel’s supply‑chain disruptions, and Bunge’s acquisition of Viterra, with each profile traceable to its source sentences without any domain‑specific training or LLM inference.

Benchmarking Generalization in Financial Statement Fraud Detection: robust evaluation and novel tasks

arXiv:2607. 19259v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Financial statement fraud detection (FSFD) is crucial for market integrity but faces challenges from increasingly sophisticated schemes and under-utilized textual data in financial reports.

IPO Finance Agent: Evaluation of LLM Financial Analysts beyond Finance Agent v2, with Automated Rubric Generation -- the Case of the SpaceX (SPCX) IPO

Finance Agent v2 (by Vals AI) has emerged as the reference benchmark for evaluating both Anthropic Claude and OpenAI ChatGPT frontier language models on financial tasks. However, it narrowly deals with periodic reporting from publicly traded companies (SEC 10-K and 10-Q filings), and its agentic harness relies on naive, unenriched chunk retrieval.

SHELF: A Synthetic Harness for Multi-Task Bibliographic Benchmarking

SHELF is a Python system that creates synthetic, controlled benchmark data for evaluating large language models on bibliographic tasks such as classification, clustering, retrieval, pair classification, and instruction retrieval. It generates 62,899 model-written documents based on Library of Congress vocabularies and compares methods like TF, TF‑IDF, BM25, popular encoders, and zero‑shot decoders, reporting performance metrics such as 0.8887 for subject classification and 0.2605 for genre‑form classification. The tool also allows independent variation of bibliographic facets and can produce unseen documents beyond a model’s training cutoff, with results indicating that model rankings transfer more reliably than absolute scores when compared to other benchmarks.

SHELF: A Synthetic Harness for Multi-Task Bibliographic Benchmarking

SHELF is a Python system that creates controlled benchmark data and evaluation tasks for libraries and archives, using labelled taxonomies, writing specifications, and a generation budget. It generates 62,899 model-written documents based on Library of Congress vocabularies and supports tasks such as classification, clustering, retrieval, pair classification, and instruction retrieval. The release compares various methods—including TF, TF-IDF, BM25, popular encoders, and zero-shot decoders—showing that sparse methods remain competitive on classification and that SHELF can vary bibliographic facets independently while generating new, verifiably unseen documents.
