More Than Mimicking Reviewers: Evaluating LLMs for Pre-Submission Peer Review

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.05788v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Peer-review feedback often arrives too late for authors to make meaningful revisions. We study an author-facing LLM system that moves part of this stress test before submission: it generates a broad pool of atomic concerns and compresses them into a short report. We evaluate agreement with historical reviews and, separately, the possible validity of concerns they omit. From 10,000 ICLR 2026 submissions, we use 3,398 manuscripts with accessible versions that predate review. On a ten-paper diagnostic, independent sampling covers 44.9% of historical issues; deduplication and refill reaches 78.7% strict and 84.9% seriousness-weighted coverage, at 3.6$\times$ more requests and 5.2$\times$ more tokens. A hidden Top-32 Oracle preserves the full 79.3
