• Abstract: One of the most widespread multi-criteria decision-making methods is the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). AHP successfully combines the pairwise comparisons method and the hierarchical approach. It allows the decision-maker to set priorities for all ranked alternatives. But what if, for some of them, their ranking value is known (e.g., it can be determined differently)? The Heuristic Rating Estimation (HRE) method proposed in 2014 tried to bring the answer to this question. However, the considerations were limited to a model that did not consider many criteria. In this work, we go a step further and analyze how HRE can be used as part of the AHP hierarchical framework. The theoretical considerations are accompanied by illustrative examples showing HRE as a multiple-criteria decision-making method.

  We propose a scalable and reliable Semantic-level Evaluation framework for Open domain Event detection. Our proposed framework first constructs a scalable evaluation benchmark that currently includes 564 event types covering 7 major domains. We then leverage large language models (LLMs) as automatic evaluation agents to compute a semantic F1-score, incorporating fine-grained definitions of semantically similar labels.

Second, we compare different strategies to utilize a pre-trained seq2seq model to generate and select a set of questions related to a given paragraph.
