Granuscore: A Reference-Free Measure of Granularity for Text Analysis and Question Answering

Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →

Granuscore is a reference‑free metric that measures the granularity of text by exploiting the structure of a hierarchical embedding space. It successfully reproduces known hierarchical orderings on the Granola‑EQ dataset, distinguishes granularity across different discourse contexts, and explains sentence‑specificity variations beyond sentence length. The authors also apply Granuscore to four question‑answering benchmarks, revealing systematic differences in granularity among questions, gold answers, and model outputs, thereby offering a new lens for assessing QA dataset difficulty.

MGAL: A Multilingual Granularity-Aware Long-Context Benchmark

MGAL is a new multilingual benchmark for evaluating long‑context large language models, built from United Nations reports in six official UN languages and covering 8K to 128K tokens. It tests four linguistic granularities—word, sentence, paragraph, and document—while also stratifying examples by their position within the document (begin, middle, end). Experiments show that models excel at word‑level tasks but struggle with coarser granularity, and that closed‑source models outperform others in lower‑resource languages, revealing challenges such as local semantic crowding and a fluency‑consistency gap.

From Single- to Cross-Document: Benchmarking Multi-Granularity Event Analysis of Large Language Models

Event analysis is an essential and fundamental direction of information extraction, involving various event-centric tasks at different granularity of documents. While large language models (LLMs) have preliminarily achieved promising performance in part of these tasks individually, their capability in event analysis still lacks comprehensive understanding due to restricted document granularity, task designs, and data source of existing benchmarks.
