AI总结:

针对现有长上下文基准忽略长文本生成能力的问题,提出LongGenBench基准,在多种场景和长度下评估LLM,发现当前模型长文本生成能力不足。

摘要:

当前的基准测试如 Needle-in-a-Haystack (NIAH)、Ruler 和 Needlebench 侧重于评估模型理解长上下文输入序列的能力,但未能捕捉到一个关键维度:生成高质量长文本的能力。设计提案、技术文档和创意写作等应用依赖于在扩展序列上连贯且遵循指令的输出——这是现有基准测试未能充分解决的挑战。为了填补这一空白,我们引入了 LongGenBench,这是一个新颖的基准测试,旨在严格评估大型语言模型(LLMs)在遵循复杂指令的同时生成长文本的能力。通过要求生成文本中包含特定事件或约束的任务,LongGenBench 在四种不同场景、三种指令类型和两种生成长度(16K 和 32K tokens)下评估模型性能。我们对十个最先进的 LLM 的评估显示,尽管在 Ruler 上取得了强劲的结果,但所有模型在 LongGenBench 上的长文本生成中都表现不佳,尤其是随着文本长度的增加。这表明当前的 LLM 尚不具备满足现实世界长文本生成需求的能力。

英文摘要:

Current benchmarks like Needle-in-a-Haystack (NIAH), Ruler, and Needlebench focus on models' ability to understand long-context input sequences but fail to capture a critical dimension: the generation of high-quality long-form text. Applications such as design proposals, technical documentation, and creative writing rely on coherent, instruction-following outputs over extended sequences - a challenge that existing benchmarks do not adequately address. To fill this gap, we introduce LongGenBench, a novel benchmark designed to rigorously evaluate large language models' (LLMs) ability to generate long text while adhering to complex instructions. Through tasks requiring specific events or constraints within generated text, LongGenBench evaluates model performance across four distinct scenarios, three instruction types, and two generation-lengths (16K and 32K tokens). Our evaluation of ten state-of-the-art LLMs reveals that, despite strong results on Ruler, all models struggled with long text generation on LongGenBench, particularly as text length increased. This suggests that current LLMs are not yet equipped to meet the demands of real-world, long-form text generation.
