CONSISTRE: A Unified Consistency-Aware Framework for Document-Level Relation Extraction with Large Language Models

CONSISTRE is a consistency‑aware framework for document‑level relation extraction that tackles contradictions in large language model predictions. It offers two tracks: an inference‑time track that refines black‑box LLM outputs through constraint‑aware prompting, verification, and self‑reflection, and a training‑time track that distills consistency knowledge into smaller open‑source models via supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning. Experiments on DocRED show both tracks outperform baselines, with the inference‑time track matching competitive F1 scores and the training‑time track narrowing the performance gap to proprietary LLMs while reducing inference cost.

CONSISTRE: A Unified Consistency-Aware Framework for Document-Level Relation Extraction with Large Language Models

Document-level relation extraction (DocRE) aims to extract relations among multiple entities across extended contexts while maintaining consistency across predicted triples. Although large language models (LLMs) show remarkable reasoning capabilities in information extraction, their predictions are typically generated independently for each candidate triple and may violate fundamental relational constraints such as transitivity, symmetry, and functional uniqueness, leading to contradictory and unreliable outputs.

ReHoPER: Receding-Horizon Planning for Enhanced Reasoning

ReHoPER is an inference‑only, zero‑shot method that enhances large language models’ reasoning by generating and answering intermediate questions along multiple paths before producing a final answer. It plans a horizon of candidate intermediate questions, selects one to answer, and replans based on the updated history. The approach is task‑agnostic, using generic instructions across datasets and models without labeled data or task‑specific prompt design, and it outperforms strong baselines on several datasets, notably achieving the largest gains on the new iLLC benchmark for compositional reasoning.
