The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Across nine benchmarks covering English, Czech, German, Ukrainian, Korean, Hindi, and Romanian, the proposed method outperforms both greedy and MBR decoding in most cases. Moreover, it yields stable correction quality regardless of the instruction prompts used.

C2weakest assumption

That generating multiple candidates from a single LLM and applying majority voting at the edit level will reliably mitigate over-correction, assuming sufficient diversity among candidates and a well-defined notion of individual edits.

C3one line summary

Edit-level majority voting on multiple LLM-generated candidates reduces over-correction in grammatical error correction and outperforms greedy and MBR decoding on nine multilingual benchmarks while remaining stable to prompt variations.
