Event analysis is an essential and fundamental direction of information extraction, involving various event-centric tasks at different granularity of documents. While large language models (LLMs) have preliminarily achieved promising performance in part of these tasks individually, their capability in event analysis still lacks comprehensive understanding due to restricted document granularity, task designs, and data source of existing benchmarks. To address these limitations, we introduce MiGUE-Bench, a systematic benchmark for assessing the performance of LLMs in multi-granularity event analysis. To support large-scale evaluation, we first develop an LLM-driven self-correcting annotation framework called MiGUE-Pipeline, enabling scalable acquisition of high-quality source data of events with automatic labels. Then, we design four core tasks in our benchmark, i.e., event detection, relation reasoning, structure induction, and future prediction, to probe model competence at different levels, from atomic event details to complex cross-document narratives. Extensive experiments on state-of-the-art LLMs and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) methods delineate the current capability boundary and identify critical deficiencies, providing insights into the future improvement of LLMs in challenging event analysis tasks.
Current benchmarks for evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs) in data analysis often fail to reflect real-world settings. They typically focus on fact retrieval from small tables and overlook the challenges of large multi-tabular datasets, external knowledge integration, and exploratory insight discovery. We introduce DataGovBench, a benchmark derived from governmental open data designed to evaluate LLMs in practical scenarios. The benchmark includes two tasks: Table QA that requires solving complex decomposable questions and producing textual answers or visualizations, and Table Insight that evaluates the ability of models to generate expert-level findings through exploratory data analysis. Comprehensive experiments with state-of-the-art LLMs, both with and without agentic frameworks, reveal significant performance gaps across both tasks. These results suggest that current LLM-based systems remain far from satisfying the demands of real-world data analytics. DataGovBench provides a challenging benchmark for advancing research on LLMs capable of both answering analytical queries and discovering insights from data. Code and sample data are available at https://github.com/SoHasegawa/datagovbench.
Benchmark datasets are central to evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs), yet they are typically conceived as monolithic tasks, obscuring substantial variation in the demands of individual samples. We introduce a dataset-centric meta-evaluation framework that audits benchmark datasets at the sample level along five latent dimensions: 1. Cognitive and Knowledge Demands, 2. Language and Content Quality, 3. Task Properties, 4. Context, and 5. Ethics, Safety, and Fairness. Applying this framework, we annotate five influential benchmarks -- MMLU, ARC, WinoGrande, HellaSwag, and TruthfulQA -- revealing pronounced internal heterogeneity that is not captured by aggregate accuracy scores. We show how these annotations enable criterion-driven orchestration of composite benchmark subsets across datasets, supporting targeted evaluation of model capabilities such as Reasoning Depth or Ethical Sensitivity. This approach reframes benchmark evaluation as dataset introspection, providing a principled methodology for analyzing and re-composing existing benchmarks to better reflect diverse evaluation needs.
Patient safety event triage, determining whether a clinical event is reportable under jurisdiction-specific policy, is a high-stakes task typically performed manually by patient safety experts. Although LLMs may support this workflow, reliable evaluation is limited by the lack of benchmarks to capture evidence-grounded policy reasoning, proactive information seeking for incomplete reports, and principled abstention in irreducibly ambiguous cases. We address this gap with a policy-grounded construction methodology centered on the clause card, a structured representation that factorizes regulatory text into auditable decision specifications. Combining clause cards with anchor-driven instantiation and closed-loop verification, our scalable pipeline produces narratives with by-construction ground truth and naturally supports generating missing information and uncertain variants. We instantiate this method on Minnesota's 29 Reportable Adverse Health Events, producing PSEBench, a 5,074-case benchmark with an agentic evaluation environment. Evaluation on 15 representative LLMs reveals consistent capability trends, demonstrates the benchmark's utility, and identifies actionable gaps toward reliable LLM-based patient safety event triage.
