A major cause is that benchmarks disagree about what counts as a mention. The authors avoid annotating more target-domain data and instead reframe the problem as Major Entity Identification (MEI). The user supplies a short designative phrase for each… 2. **[IdentifyMe: A Challenging Long-Context Mention Resolution Benchmark for LLMs](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/manikantan-2025-identifyme-challenging-long-context-mention/)** *(2025 · 4 citations)* Traditional coreference evaluation asks models to reproduce span clusters. This penalizes LLMs whenever their mention boundaries or entity definitions differ from a dataset's own conventions, so their real grasp of reference gets blurred. The authors reframe the task as mention resolution in multiple-choice form.
