ContextGuard: Structured Self-Auditing for Context Learning in Language Models
Recent benchmarks reveal that despite strong reasoning capabilities, large language models (LLMs) still struggle to faithfully apply complex contextual knowledge. These failures are often not wholesale reasoning collapses: in context-rich tasks, models may follow the central reasoning path while missing peripheral, persistent, or format-sensitive requirements.
Context-CoT: Enhancing Context Learning via High-Quality Reasoning Synthesis
While LLMs excel at reasoning over prompts using static pretrained knowledge, they struggle significantly with context learning-the ability to dynamically extract, internalize, and apply new knowledge from complex, task-specific contexts. Recent evaluations on the CL-Bench reveal a critical capability gap: frontier models solve only 17.2% of context-dependent tasks on average.
