This paper presents an overview of \emph{SciClaimEval}, a pilot task at NTCIR-19 on verifying scientific claims against the tables and figures of the papers in which they appear. Our dataset pairs aut...

The study evaluates hybrid retrieval, NLI, and open‑source LLMs for scientific claim verification. Using a benchmark of 2,035 claims, the authors compare a DeBERTa‑based NLI baseline with Llama 3.1, Qwen3, and Mistral LLMs, finding that Qwen3 achieves the highest Macro‑F1 score. A conservative fusion rule that labels a claim as Support or Contradict only when both models agree actually degrades performance, and error analysis reveals that disagreements often overturn correct LLM predictions.

MedRAGChecker is a claim-level verification framework designed for biomedical retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG). It decomposes generated answers into atomic claims and assesses each claim’s support by combining evidence‑grounded natural language inference with biomedical knowledge‑graph consistency signals. The aggregated claim decisions provide diagnostics that distinguish retrieval and generation failures, such as faithfulness, under‑evidence, contradiction, and safety‑critical errors, and the system is distilled into compact models for scalable evaluation.
