Frame: Form-Restricted Authoring with Model-Based Evaluation

arXiv:2611.08921v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many professional reports reuse the structure of prior editions while updating the content. We formalize this setting as form-restricted report generation: given a sample report and new grounding documents, generate a report that preserves the sample's form while accurately reflecting the new evidence. We introduce FRAME, a benchmark of 120 EDGAR- and arXiv-derived instances across Financial Quarterly, Financial Annual, Academic Simple, and Academic Complex categories, built with a temporal three-snapshot pipeline. We evaluate outputs with three human-validated metrics: structural similarity via semantic tree-edit distance, coverage via information unit recall, and faithfulness via claim-level grounding verification.
