NAACL 2025 Workshop on TrustNLP2025A critical challenge in deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) is developing reliable mechanisms to estimate their confidence, enabling systems to determine when to trust model outputs versus seek human intervention. We present a Calibrated Reflection approach for enhancing confidence estimation in LLMs, a framework that combines structured reasoning with distance-aware calibration technique. Our approach

2025A popular approach to building agents using Language Models (LMs) involves iteratively prompting the LM, reflecting on its outputs, and updating the input prompts until the desired task is achieved. However, our analysis reveals two key shortcomings in the existing methods: (i) limited exploration of the decision space due to repetitive reflections, which result in redundant inputs, and (ii) an inability

2025While significant progress has been made on the text-to-SQL task, recent solutions repeatedly encode the same database schema for every question, resulting in unnecessary high inference cost and often overlooking crucial database knowledge. To address these issues, we propose You Only Read Once (YORO), a novel paradigm that directly internalizes database knowledge into the parametric knowledge of a text-to-SQL

2025The recent success of specialized Large Language Models (LLMs) in domains such as mathematical reasoning and coding has led to growing interest in methods for merging these expert LLMs into a unified Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, with the goal of enhancing performance in each domain while retaining effectiveness on general tasks. However, the effective merging of expert models remains an open challenge

2025Multi-agent coordination is crucial for reliable multi-robot navigation in shared spaces such as automated warehouses. In regions of dense robot traffic, local coordination methods may fail to find a deadlock-free solution. In these scenarios, it is appropriate to let a central unit generate a global schedule that decides the passing order of robots. However, the runtime of such centralized coordination
