LegalCiteBench reveals that current LLMs achieve under 7% accuracy on closed-book legal citation retrieval and completion tasks, with misleading answer rates above 94% for nearly all tested models.
Retrieval with frozen embeddings and k-NN delivers competitive accuracy, high data efficiency, and zero hallucinations on legal multi-label annotation across ECtHR and Eurlex datasets.
Domain-trained small language model Olava Extract outperforms frontier LLMs on structured contract extraction with macro F1 0.812, micro F1 0.842, highest precision, and 78-97% lower inference cost.
The paper releases a benchmark of ten life-insurance contracts, a domain ontology, and 58 evidence-linked scenarios that shows ontology-driven knowledge graph queries produce more consistent and diagnosable gap/overlap results than text-only LLM inference.
Adding handwritten Cypher graph tools to an agentic RAG system roughly doubled factual-correctness precision and recall on MoNaCo complex questions and improved fine-grained truthfulness compared with vector-only RAG.
