The paper introduces a six‑stage audit framework for assessing reproducibility in computer science literature and applies it to the neuro‑symbolic AI (NSAI) subfield. Using the framework, the authors screened 5,497 records, identified 1,304 eligible studies, and found verifiable code artifacts for only 455 of them. Of those, they fully or partially reproduced 85 studies, representing 6.52% of the eligible corpus and 18.68% of attempted reruns, highlighting a significant reproducibility gap even when code is declared available.

The paper introduces REASONS, a benchmark of 12,723 sentence-level citation instances across 12 arXiv subject categories, to evaluate scientific citation attribution under different evidence conditions. It proposes a dual-metric framework—Abstention Rate (AR) and Hallucination Rate (HR)—to balance reliability and responsiveness. Experiments with proprietary and open-source LLMs across various prompting and retrieval settings show that advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) reduces hallucinations but increases abstention, while adversarial metadata can push hallucination rates above 85%. Human evaluation confirms a high ratio of factual hallucinations to acceptable paraphrases, underscoring the need for systems that can appropriately abstain under uncertainty.
