[C8] MUG-Eval: A Proxy Evaluation Framework for Multilingual Generation Capabilities in Any Language

Seyoung Song, Seogyeong Jeong, Eunsu Kim, Jiho Jin, Dongkwan Kim, Jay Shin, Alice Oh. Findings of the Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing: EMNLP 2025 (EMNLP-Findings 2025, Long), 2025

One-sentence Summary: A language-agnostic framework that evaluates LLM multilingual generation by measuring task completion rates in self-communication scenarios, enabling objective assessment across 2,100+ languages without requiring language-specific tools or humans.

[C7] LLM-as-an-Interviewer: Beyond Static Testing Through Dynamic LLM Evaluation

Eunsu Kim, Juyoung Suk, Seungone Kim, Niklas Muennighoff, Dongkwan Kim, Alice Oh. Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2025 (ACL-Findings 2025, Long), 2025

One-sentence Summary: We propose a new paradigm for evaluating large language models (LLMs), called LLM-as-an-Interviewer.

[C6] Generalizing Weisfeiler-Lehman Kernels to Subgraphs

Dongkwan Kim and Alice Oh. International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR), 2025

One-sentence Summary: We propose WLKS that extends the WL graph kernel to subgraphs, captures high-order structural similarities in k-hop neighborhoods, efficiently outperforming state-of-the-art GNNs.

[C5] Perceptions to Beliefs: Exploring Precursory Inferences for Theory of Mind in Large Language Models

Chani Jung, Dongkwan Kim, Jiho Jin, Jiseon Kim, Yeon Seonwoo, Yejin Choi, Alice Oh, and Hyunwoo Kim. Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP), 2024

One-sentence Summary: We assess key precursors of Theory of Mind (ToM) in LLMs by perception-augmented ToM benchmarks. We propose PercepToM, a ToM method inspired by our findings of models’ strength in perception inference and weakness in perception-to-belief inference.
