Abstract

Cyberbullying is a growing concern in online communities, yet existing Bengali corpora remain limited in contextual information, annotation transparency, scale, accessibility, and support for multidimensional analysis, thereby hindering robust detection and comprehensive study of harasser behaviors and networks. To address these gaps, we introduce the Bengali Contextual and Diverse Cyberbullying (\textit{BenCoDiC}) corpus, a publicly available contextual cyberbullying resource for Bengali political news discourse comprising 50,250 textual instances collected from 100 YouTube videos and their associated discussions. The corpus preserves caption--comment--reply relationships and is organized through a nine-dimensional star schema covering users, videos, textual content, context, time, engagement, political parties, target identities, and language categories. Five AI chatbots were initially evaluated for annotation but did not meet the predefined reliability criterion. Consequently, a two-tier human annotation process with expert verification was adopted, achieving Fleiss' $κ=0.86$ and Krippendorff's $α=0.86$. Statistical analyses characterize the corpus, while transformer-based experiments show that incorporating conversational context yields modest but consistent improvements over isolated-text classification. \textit{BenCoDiC} supports context-aware cyberbullying detection and perpetrator-oriented behavioral and network analysis. The corpus is available at https://github.com/bencodic/BenCoDiC-Corpus.

OARelatedWork: A Large-Scale Dataset of Related Work Sections with Full-texts from Open Access Sources

This paper introduces OARelatedWork: a dataset for related work generation from open-access sources. It is the first large-scale multi-document summarization dataset for related work generation, containing whole related work sections and full texts of cited papers. Its validation and test splits are constructed so that every source paper is available in full text, enabling controlled evaluation of full-text related work generation. The dataset includes 94 450 papers from multiple domains. With OARelatedWork, we aim to shift the field from generating parts of related work sections from abstracts only to generating entire related work sections from all available content. We (i) benchmark a wide spectrum of models, highlighting that synthesizing massive full-text contexts remains challenge for tested cost-effective Large Language Models (LLMs): under our statement-level judge, GPT-4o-mini's evidence-grounded True rate drops from 92.9% with abstracts to 83.8% with full texts. We (ii) empirically analyze human writing behavior through a human evaluation over 40 papers and 408 factual statements, revealing that authors frequently introduce abstractive claims ungrounded in localized source texts; consequently, tested LLMs actually surpass human baselines in strict, evidence-grounded factuality. Finally, we (iii) conduct a fine-grained meta-evaluation, revealing that standard reference-based metrics are inadequate for evaluating such long-form structured outputs, and introduce a robust statement-level evaluation framework to address this gap.

Knowing When to Stop: Efficient Context Processing via Latent Sufficiency Signals

Large language models (LLMs) process entire input contexts indiscriminately, which is inefficient when the information required to answer a query is localized within the context. We present dynamic context cutoff, a novel method enabling LLMs to self-terminate processing upon acquiring sufficient task-relevant information. Through analysis of model internals, we discover that specific attention heads inherently encode "sufficiency signals" -- detectable through lightweight classifiers -- that predict when critical information has been processed. This reveals a new efficiency paradigm: models' internal understanding naturally dictates processing needs rather than external compression heuristics. Comprehensive experiments across six QA datasets (up to 40K tokens) with three model families (LLaMA/Qwen/Mistral, 1B-70B) demonstrate 3.4% accuracy improvement while achieving 1.33x token reduction on average. Furthermore, our method demonstrates superior performance compared to other context efficiency methods at equivalent token reduction rates. Additionally, we observe an emergent scaling phenomenon: while smaller models require probing for sufficiency detection, larger models exhibit intrinsic self-assessment capabilities through prompting.

ReasoningShield: Safety Detection over Reasoning Traces of Large Reasoning Models

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) leverage explicit reasoning traces, known as Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, to decompose complex problems into intermediate steps before deriving final answers. However, these reasoning traces introduce unique safety challenges: harmful content can be embedded in intermediate steps even when final answers appear benign. Our study reveals that existing state-of-the-art moderation tools experience significant performance degradation on CoT moderation, with F1 scores dropping by up to 35.2% compared to traditional answer moderation. To address these challenges, we present ReasoningShield, a comprehensive benchmark and a suite of strong lightweight models for CoT safety moderation. Our benchmark includes 9.2K annotated (Query, CoT) pairs with structured stepwise risk analysis, consisting of a 7K-sample training set and a 2.2K human-annotated test set, spanning 10 risk categories, 3 safety levels, and 8 LRMs with diverse reasoning paradigms. To further demonstrate the utility of the benchmark, we develop lightweight models with 1B/3B parameters using a two-stage training strategy. Our models achieve 91.8% F1 on our benchmark, substantially outperforming leading tools such as LlamaGuard-4 by 35.6% and commercial models such as GPT-4o by 15.8%, while generalizing effectively across diverse reasoning paradigms and unseen scenarios.
