Claims

C1strongest claim

Following a structured search and manual screening protocol, we completed literature collection in November 2025 and identified 145 unique papers across seven logging tasks. We synthesize the research area through a unified, task-driven taxonomy, summarize common design patterns, and distill key lessons and open challenges for reliable real-world adoption.

C2weakest assumption

The structured search protocol and manual screening captured a representative and unbiased sample of all relevant LLM-based log analysis papers published up to November 2025.

C3one line summary

LLM4Log is a systematic review of 145 papers on LLM-based log analysis that delivers a unified taxonomy, design patterns, and open challenges for reliable adoption in AIOps.
