1. **[(Perhaps) Beyond Human Translation: Harnessing Multi-Agent Collaboration for Translating Ultra-Long Literary Texts](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wu-2025-perhaps-beyond-human-translation-harnessing/)** *(2025 · 71 citations)* Literary translation is still hard for MT systems. Novels rely on figurative language, cultural references and a distinctive authorial style, and these become harder to handle consistently across book-length documents. The authors present TRANSAGENTS, a framework in which LLM agents play the staff of a translation…
2. **[New Trends for Modern Machine Translation with Large Reasoning Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/liu-2026-new-trends-modern-machine-translation/)** *(2026 · 16 citations)* This position paper from Alibaba Group and the University of Edinburgh argues that Large Reasoning Models (LRMs), which use Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, change machine translation (MT).
3. **[Marco-o1 v2: Towards Widening The Distillation Bottleneck for Reasoning Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yin-2025-marco-o1-v2-widening/)** *(2025 · 8 citations)* Small models are often taught to reason by fine-tuning them on long chain-of-thought (CoT) traces from large reasoning models such as DeepSeek-R1.
4. **[Chinese SafetyQA: A Safety Short-form Factuality Benchmark for Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tan-2024-chinese-safetyqa-safety-short/)** *(2024 · 4 citations)* Models deployed in China must handle questions about local law, policy and ethics correctly. Existing safety benchmarks mostly use red-teaming or case-based prompts that mix several risks at once, which makes it hard to tell which areas of safety knowledge a model lacks. The authors introduce Chinese SafetyQA, a…
5. **[ComfyUI-R1: Exploring Reasoning Models for Workflow Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/xu-2026-comfyui-r1-exploring-reasoning-models/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* ComfyUI is a node-based platform for building image and video generation pipelines. Assembling a working workflow there takes real expertise, because the platform has thousands of community components with complex dependencies. Earlier automation attempts prompted proprietary LLMs or multi-agent setups to emit JSON…
