Recent LLMs score almost perfectly on them, so these tests no longer separate strong models from weak ones. The authors propose Counting-Stars, a benchmark that measures how well a model gathers many scattered pieces of… 2. **[Hunyuan-MT Technical Report](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zheng-2025-hunyuan-mt-technical-report/)** *(2025 · 17 citations)* Open-source LLM translators still trail proprietary systems, and translation between Mandarin and China's minority languages gets little attention. 3. **[SSR-Zero: Simple Self-Rewarding Reinforcement Learning for Machine Translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/yang-2026-ssr-zero-simple-self-rewarding/)** *(2026 · 10 citations)* Most strong LLM-based machine translation (MT) systems depend on costly external supervision, such as human-made reference translations or trained reward models, and this limits how far they can scale. 4. **[Can Many-Shot In-Context Learning Help LLMs as Evaluators?
