ProcCtrlBench: Evaluating Process-Level Defects and Control Preservation in LLM Coding Agents

arXiv:2605.20251v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing benchmarks for LLM coding agents primarily evaluate final outcomes. While useful for measuring overall capability, these metrics provide limited visibility and often miss defects that arise during execution. We present ProcCtrlBench, a benchmark for execution-process evaluation in LLM coding agents. ProcCtrlBench organizes recurrent execution defects into a reusable ontology covering 11 defect types in 4 categories, and evaluates agent trajectories through standardized process evidence rather than final outcomes alone. To support comparison across heterogeneous agents, ProcCtrlBench standardizes raw logs into a unified trajectory representation and reports calibrated scorecards over process-level findings. In addition, ProcCtrlBench uses control preservation as a way to quantify execution-process quality, capturing whether execution remains interpretable, interruptible, correctable, reversible, and able to hand back authority when needed. We evaluate ProcCtrlBench on 200 cases sampled from three benchmarks: AndroidBench, TerminalBench, and SWE-bench-Verified. Results show that ProcCtrlBench can be instantiated with useful reliability, provides more stable semantics than direct thresholding, and reveals meaningful differences in execution quality that are often overlooked by conventional outcome-based evaluation.

SSDAU: Structured Semantic Data Augmentation for Joint Entity and Relation Extraction

arXiv:2605.23440v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Joint Entity and Relation Extraction (JERE) is highly susceptible to weak generalization due to low-quality training data. Data augmentation is a common strategy to enhance model generalization across different domains. However, existing data augmentation methods often overlook text relevance and may disrupt semantic structures and dependencies, making it difficult to generate effective augmented data for improving model generalization. In this paper, we propose Structured Semantic Data Augmentation (SSDAU), a novel method designed to preserve the semantic structure of text during augmentation. SSDAU segments text based on entity labels and employs an encoder to capture semantic features of entities through context awareness. It then performs entity semantic restructuring to generate augmented data. To distinguish semantically similar entities, SSDAU fuses contextualized embeddings with traditional similarity scores. To mitigate potential topic ambiguity and information loss, we apply the BERTTopic model to filter out irrelevant topics, ensuring topic consistency. We evaluate SSDAU on datasets with different annotation types and compare its performance on five representative JERE models against seven popular data augmentation baselines. Experiments demonstrate that SSDAU generates semantically consistent data with superior robustness against ambiguity (8.26% F1 decrease vs. 31.91% for baselines), significantly outperforming all existing methods across all metrics.
