The paper introduces Knowledge-Weighted Fine‑Tuning, a method that estimates an instance‑level knowledge score through multi‑sampled inference and uses it to scale the learning signal. This approach encourages large language models to explicitly say "I don't know" on out‑of‑scope queries while preserving accuracy on known questions. The authors also propose new evaluation metrics for uncertainty, demonstrating that better discrimination between known and unknown instances improves overall performance.

The paper investigates why large reasoning language models struggle to transfer parametric knowledge across different scripts. Through observational data and regression analysis on ECLeKTic and MultiLoKo datasets, the authors find that script mismatch—not language family—is the main predictor of transfer failure when controlling for model capability and question difficulty. By providing key entities in the source language and training models to reason about transliteration ambiguities, they demonstrate a reduction in the cross‑script transfer gap, suggesting that post‑training improvements can enhance cross‑lingual knowledge transfer.

The paper introduces a knowledge‑graph‑based evaluation framework, S3KG, to assess whether large language models truly understand context in question answering tasks. S3KG combines structural and semantic signals into a single similarity score and is paired with a diagnostic analysis that pinpoints reasoning errors at the triplet level. Across nine benchmarks, the method outperforms existing baselines, achieving up to +7.6 F1 points and an AUROC of 0.973.

arXiv:2604. 17621v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Many real-world questions appear deceptively simple yet implicitly demand two capabilities: (i) systematic coverage of a bounded knowledge universe and (ii) compositional set-based reasoning over that universe, a phenomenon we term "the tip of the iceberg.
