SAGE: Governed Artifact Generation from Enterprise Guidelines

SAGE is a governed multi‑stage LLM pipeline that transforms enterprise guideline documents—containing narrative text, tables, and images—into structured artifacts. It uses a shared versioned rule store, schema‑validated contracts, and provenance tracking to validate, score, and reconcile extracted rules, automatically approving high‑confidence outputs while flagging uncertain items for human review. In a test on 120 documents, SAGE reduced processing time from days to 20–100 minutes and achieved a 96% success rate with only 3.2% hallucination.

A Neurosymbolic Approach to Natural Language Formalization and Verification

arXiv:2511. 09008v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models perform well at natural language interpretation and reasoning, but their lack of formal correctness guarantees limits their adoption in regulated industries like finance and health-care that operate under strict policies.

Beyond Accuracy: Robustness, Cost, and Governance Trade-offs for Vision-Language Models in Templated Document Extraction

The paper evaluates eleven vision‑language models (VLMs) for extracting structured fields from business documents, focusing on robustness, cost, and governance rather than just accuracy. Using a held‑out set of 750 synthetic checks, the study finds that fine‑tuning open‑source VLMs on 3,000 samples yields an F1 score above 0.98, surpassing all zero‑shot commercial systems, while GPT‑5 tops the commercial group and Claude Sonnet 4.5 fails on date extraction. The authors also present a practitioner‑oriented selection framework that maps task profiles—such as quality, latency, governance, and volume—to recommended approaches via filtering and total‑cost minimization, demonstrated on a mid‑volume document‑extraction scenario.

FormStruct-Bench:A Hierarchical and Diagnostic Benchmark for Table-Form Document Structure Recognition

Transforming table-form documents into machine-processable records requires recovering not only their visible content but also the multilevel structure that organizes it. However, existing benchmarks evaluate either holistic document outputs or conventional table grids, and their aggregate scores provide little insight into where structural failures occur.
