AspectSim (Summarize-Then-Embed): leaderboard

Aspect-conditioned document similarity (AspectSim, Hossain et al., 2026) with the LLM writing an aspect-focused summary of each of two related documents before an embedding model compares them. The score is the Spearman correlation with GPT-4o similarity labels over about 26,000 aspect pairs from five corpora, averaged over nine embedding models, on a -1 to 1 scale; higher is better.

Metric: Spearman correlation (-1 to 1) between the embedding similarity of the evidence the LLM extracts from each document and the GPT-4o aspect-similarity labels, mean over nine embedding models; the LLM writes an aspect-conditioned summary. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Estimated already saturated. 16 models tracked.
