Is This Evidence Decision-Critical? Learning to Verify Rule-Governed Decisions

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.39608v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rule-based reasoning, as in eligibility checks and contract reviews, requires language models to assess evidence against individual conditions and combine their judgments under explicit rules. Errors in evidence assessment can leave a decision unchanged, but misinterpreting or overlooking decision-critical evidence can reverse it. Identifying such evidence allows more capable models to focus on checking the corresponding condition judgments, supporting accurate and safe decisions. Recognizing the evidence's criticality requires understanding how evidence affects a condition judgment and how that judgment affects the decision. To achieve the goal, we propose a INTERvention-based imPACT learning framework (InterPact), which enables counterfactu
