• Abstract summary: We simulate a real-world scenario where structured full-length Wikipedia documents are generated for emergent events using input retrieved from web sources. To ensure that Large Language Models (LLMs) are not trained on corpora related to recently occurred events, we select events that have taken place recently and introduce a new benchmark Wiki-GenBen. We design a comprehensive set of systematic evaluation metrics and baseline methods, to evaluate the capability of LLMs in generating factual full-length Wikipedia documents.

• Abstract: In today's fast-paced world, the growing demand to quickly generate comprehensive and accurate Wikipedia documents for emerging events is both crucial and challenging. However, previous efforts in Wikipedia generation have often fallen short of meeting real-world requirements. Some approaches focus solely on generating segments of a complete Wikipedia document, while others overlook the importance of faithfulness in generation or fail to consider the influence of the pre-training corpus. In this paper, we simulate a real-world scenario where structured full-length Wikipedia documents are generated for emergent events using input retrieved from web sources. To ensure that Large Language Models (LLMs) are not trained on corpora related to recently occurred events, we select events that have taken place recently and introduce a new benchmark Wiki-GenBen, which consists of 309 events paired with their corresponding retrieved web pages for generating evidence. Additionally, we design a comprehensive set of systematic evaluation metrics and baseline methods, to evaluate the capability of LLMs in generating factual full-length Wikipedia documents. The data and code are open-sourced at WikiGenBench.

  We introduce a novel, fine-grained approach aimed at enhancing the accuracy of relevance scoring for long documents. Our methodology firstly segments a long document into blocks, each of which is embedded using an LLM. We aggregate the query-block relevance scores through a weighted sum method, yielding a comprehensive score for the query with the entire document.

  Large language models (LLMs) have brought substantial advancements in text generation, but their potential for enhancing classification tasks remains underexplored. We propose a framework for thoroughly investigating fine-tuning LLMs for classification, including both generation- and encoding-based approaches. We instantiate this framework in edit intent classification (EIC), a challenging and underexplored classification task.

  This paper introduces RAGEval, a framework designed to assess RAG systems across diverse scenarios. With a focus on factual accuracy, we propose three novel metrics Completeness, Hallucination, and Irrelevance. Experimental results show that RAGEval outperforms zero-shot and one-shot methods in terms of clarity, safety, conformity, and richness of generated samples.

  In this paper, we devise four pre-training objectives tailored for information retrieval tasks based on the structured knowledge of Wikipedia. Compared to existing pre-training methods, our approach can better capture the semantic knowledge in the training corpus. Experimental results in biomedical and legal domains demonstrate that our approach achieves better performance in vertical domains.

  Autoregressive language models are emerging as the de-facto standard for generating answers. Previous work has explored ways to partition the search space into hierarchical structures. In this work we propose an alternative that doesn't force any structure in the search space: using all ngrams in a passage as its possible identifiers.

Our framework assumes a hierarchical latent structure of a document where the top-level captures the long range dependency. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework on a diverse set of summarization datasets.
