An Empirical Study of Recent Large Language Models for Knowledge Graph to Text Generation on Standard Benchmarks
Priyanka, Renaud Delbru, Souhail Bakkali and 2 more
Knowledge graph-to-text (KG-to-text) generation verbalizes a set of knowledge graph triples into fluent natural language. While fine-tuned encoder-decoder models have long been the standard approach, recent LLMs are becoming increasingly competitive. We benchmark recent LLMs against fine-tuned encoder-decoder models, using reference-based metrics and graph-grounded reference-free LLM-based evaluation validated against human annotations. We observed that recent LLMs substantially narrow, and in several settings close, the gap with fine-tuned models on reference-based metrics, while performing better on graph-grounded metrics. LLM-based evaluation scores show limited correlation with reference-based metrics, suggesting that the two approaches capture different aspects of generation quality. Graph-grounded evaluation reveals that prompted models produce fewer contradictions and triple omissions than fine-tuned models, and these errors increase more rapidly with graph size for fine-tuned models, highlighting differences between the two approaches that reference-based metrics may not fully capture.

VERA: A Responsible AI Dashboard for Assessing LLM Deployments in Light of the EU AI Act
Robin Quériaux, Solveig Bachellery, Léa Déléris and 4 more
Institutions that deploy large language models in regulated settings often need technical evidence of responsible AI practices before approving a deployment. COMPL-AI provides a technical interpretation of the EU AI Act that organises this evidence under six principle groups and eighteen technical requirements, twelve of which current benchmarks can measure. The benchmark suites that produce this evidence are typically operated from a command line, while the staff who approve deployments are non-engineers. We present VERA, an open-source self-hosted dashboard deployed to facilitate responsible AI processes within a large European bank. A reviewer selects a model and runs public benchmarks against it. VERA scores the twelve requirements that current benchmarks can measure and instruments the energy consumed by each evaluation, adding run-level evidence for environmental impact. We run four served open-weight models through the requirement pipeline, and the dashboard displays a score for each measurable requirement. A within-subject study then compares how participants read these benchmark results: from the raw output files in one condition, and through the VERA dashboard in the other. The dashboard reduced the time needed to perform the responsible AI assessment, reducing the time required from 56 seconds using raw files to 30 seconds using our dashboard, on average. Our dashboard scored highly (4.36 out of 5) on usefulness in the survey conducted within the organization. The dashboard and the study material are released publicly to promote replicability and reproducibility in different organisational contexts.

METTA: Memory-Enhanced Test-Time Adaptation for Meta-Reinforcement Learning
Ali Najar, Hosein Hasani, Amir Kooshan Fattah and 2 more
Meta-reinforcement learning aims to train agents that adapt quickly to unseen tasks from limited interaction, but this requires representing task evidence over long interaction histories. Classical recurrent agents compress experience into hidden states, while transformer-based agents retrieve from past trajectories at quadratic memory and computation cost. In this work, we propose Memory-Enhanced Test-Time Adaptation (METTA) for meta-reinforcement learning. It decomposes the fast adaptation phase into two temporal scales: a causal neural memory performs fine-grained within-episode adaptation with linear sequence complexity, while compact episode-level summaries support long-range cross-episode task inference without attending over the full interaction history. Moreover, equipping agents with neural memory provides sufficient expressive capacity and test-time training capability, enabling effective adaptation to unseen held-out tasks and task families at meta-test time. On unseen held-out Meta-World ML10/45 test environments, METTA achieves a success rate over $50\%$ while maintaining a low training budget and short wall-clock time. On long-context sparse-reward PointMaze tasks, it outperforms transformer-based baselines by exhibiting more structured exploration behavior. These results show that METTA provides an efficient path toward more adaptive and scalable long-context meta-RL.

From Prompt Rules to Golden Data Model: Production-Scale Generation of Personalized, Compliant Pharmaceutical Claims
Suyash Mishra, Qiang Li, Subhabrata Adak and 3 more
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to generate domain-specific commercial & medical content (e.g., claims, statements, and promotional phrases) in regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals. However, ensuring its regulatory compliance, factual accuracy, and audience-specific personalization remains a major challenge. We report a production case study asking whether moving compliance and personalization signal from prompt-level rules into retrieval time structured context improves pharmaceutical claims generation, using Composer, a deployed internal tool built on a Golden Data Model (GDM) of 1,867 pharmaceutical claims spanning four products. The GDM integrates claim metadata, references, audience labels, material type, usage history, Match Text Variant (MTV) links, and a six dimension quality score (6C). Across six product-audience segments, the context pipeline improves intended indication (+29%), intended content type (+62%) and intended target audience (+67%), 6C quality score (+86%), and claim reuse (+34%). Production log analysis over the deployment period shows a 29.5% reduction in weekly API cost. We report this as descriptive deployment evidence. This work is a systems and data architecture contribution: it shows that in a regulated, high-stakes domain, restructuring claim data for retrieval-time filtering is a more scalable lever than expanding prompt-level rules, and documents the engineering path data cleaning, graph linking, and quality scoring.

Would an LLM Match into a Residency? Uncertainty, Reasoning and Image Use of Open Language Models on the Spanish MIR Examination
Miguel Fernandez-de-Retana, Unai Zulaika, Ruben Sanchez-Corcuera and 2 more
Accuracy on medical examinations is common evidence offered for the clinical use of language models, yet a health system that intends to run an open model on its own hardware needs to know considerably more: whether the model recognizes when it is likely to be wrong, whether medical fine-tuning improves this ability, whether its correct answers rest on sound clinical reasoning, or whether it actually uses the images it is given. We examine these questions for four open models of 8 to 27 billion parameters on the Spanish MIR residency examination, scoring 1,552 questions from eight editions under the exam's own rules. Answering every question, the three larger models would rank among roughly the first 600 to 3,000 candidates, with 41 to 43 specialties still open to them. Abstention, however, never pays, because even their least confident answers are right more often than the 25% break-even. Medical fine-tuning reduced overconfidence at the cost of accuracy, without improving how well confidence separates right from wrong answers. Moreover, 13-38% of correct answers rejected a distractor for a clinically unsound reason that confidence did not reflect, and removing or swapping the provided contextual images left accuracy unchanged.
