1. **[TreeReview: A Dynamic Tree of Questions Framework for Deep and Efficient LLM-based Scientific Peer Review](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chang-2025-treereview-dynamic-tree-questions-framework/)** *(2025 · 16 citations)* Peer review is under strain from growing submission volumes.
