Cloze-style reading comprehension in Chinese is still limited due to the lack of various corpora. In this paper we propose a large-scale Chinese cloze test dataset ChID, which studies the comprehension of idiom, a unique language phenomenon in Chinese. In this corpus, the idioms in a passage are replaced by blank symbols and the correct answer needs to be chosen from well-designed candidate idioms. We carefully study how the design of candidate idioms and the representation of idioms affect the performance of state-of-the-art models. Results show that the machine accuracy is substantially worse than that of human, indicating a large space for further research.

  1. Evaluating LLMs on Chinese Idiom Translation

    cs.CL 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Across 900 annotated translation pairs from nine MT systems, the best system still mistranslates Chinese idioms in 28% of cases, and standard metrics miss these errors (Pearson correlation below 0.48).

  2. GPTailor: Large Language Model Pruning Through Layer Cutting and Stitching

    cs.CL 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    GPTailor searches over layer removal, layer selection, and layer merging across fine-tuned model variants to produce smaller LLMs that retain more benchmark performance than single-model pruning.
