1. **[Large Language Models for Data Annotation and Synthesis: A Survey](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tan-2024-large-language-models-data-annotation/)** *(2024 · 262 citations)* Labeling or generating training data by hand is slow, expensive and often requires domain experts. This survey examines how LLMs such as GPT-4, Gemini and LLaMA-2 can automate that work. It is a literature review, so it reports no new experiments. The authors frame the setting with two roles: an annotator model A…
2. **[Learning from Diverse Reasoning Paths with Routing and Collaboration](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lei-2025-learning-diverse-reasoning-paths-routing/)** *(2025 · 11 citations)* Compact student models trained by black-box distillation usually see only one teacher rationale per question, which captures little of the teacher's reasoning repertoire.
3. **[AnyMAC: Cascading Flexible Multi-Agent Collaboration via Next-Agent Prediction](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2025-anymac-cascading-flexible-multi-agent/)** *(2025 · 10 citations)* LLM-based multi-agent systems usually link agents through fixed or learned graphs, often DAGs. These graphs allow each agent to be used only once per round and let agents see only their neighbours' messages. AnyMAC replaces the graph with a sequence. At each step, Next-Agent Prediction (NAP) picks which role to call…
4. **[Mind the Gap in Cultural Alignment: Task-Aware Culture Management for Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2026-mind-gap-cultural-alignment-task/)** *(2026 · 2 citations)* Large language models often carry a Western-leaning cultural bias. Existing cultural alignment methods, such as persona prompting or fine-tuning on value surveys like WVS, have two weaknesses. Broad value data transfers poorly to concrete culture-sensitive tasks such as offensive language detection. Training one…
5. **[LOKA: Conflict-Aware LLM Knowledge Update with Adaptive Knowledge Memory](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhang-2026-loka-conflict-aware-llm-knowledge/)** *(2026)* LLMs need regular refreshing as facts change and as harmful or sensitive content is discovered. This means adding new knowledge and erasing old knowledge in the same update. The authors identify two obstacles. First, the gradients of learning and unlearning objectives often point in opposite directions. Second…
