HintMiner: Automatic Question Hints Mining From Q&A Web Posts with Language Model via Self-Supervised Learning

HintMiner is an automatic tool that mines question hints from web Q&A posts using a language‑model‑based MiningNet. It retrieves many Q&A posts, extracts hints via a transformer‑based encoder‑decoder with copying mechanisms, and is trained with a self‑supervised objective on large online data. Evaluated on 60,000 Stack Overflow questions, HintMiner achieves an average BLEU score of 36.17% and ROUGE‑2 of 36.29%.

Prompt2Skill: Unsupervised Skill Optimization From Natural Language Instructions

Prompt2Skill is an unsupervised framework that constructs skills for Large Language Models directly from natural‑language task descriptions. It automatically derives task specifications, discovers or synthesizes datasets, and refines the skill through a reflective editing loop. In experiments across question answering, reading comprehension, spreadsheet manipulation, and mathematical reasoning, Prompt2Skill outperforms direct prompting, improving performance by an average of 10.8 points on both open‑source and frontier models.
