Large language models (LLMs) increasingly support complex professional tasks, yet their capabilities in rule-intensive document review remain insufficiently evaluated. National standard documents, such as China GB/T standards, offer a representative testbed: they are lengthy, highly structured, and governed by explicit rules for scope, terminology, normative wording, and cross-section consistency.

AI-assisted peer review is increasingly discussed and adopted as a tool to support the scientific publishing process, yet there is little systematic understanding of how publication venues regulate its use or of how capable current AI review systems are. We address these questions by first surveying reviewer-facing AI policies across 111 leading AI/NLP conferences and medical journals, revealing substantial regulation differences between the two communities.

The paper introduces an LLM-as-a-Judge framework for evaluating the outputs of an agentic drug discovery assistant, ChatInvent, deployed at AstraZeneca. It defines four quality dimensions—Completeness, Relevancy, Structural Clarity, and Scope Adherence—alongside deterministic Tool Call Correctness checks, and validates the judge against five expert annotators. After optimizing the best-performing judge with few-shot demonstrations, alignment with human majority votes improves from 0.80 to 0.86, and the framework reveals that informal question phrasing does not degrade output quality.

The paper investigates whether large language models (LLMs) can reliably assess scientific hypotheses by using a logit-based energy scoring method that leverages the model’s intrinsic confidence. Across 1,323 papers in 12 disciplines, this intrinsic scoring achieved a 33.0% Hit@1 rate, outperforming a prompted listwise ranking approach that scored 16.6%. The best result, a 1‑billion‑parameter model with logit-based energy scoring, reached 53.1% Hit@1, suggesting that confidence‑based evaluation could improve trustworthy AI‑enabled scientific discovery.
