A new benchmark called TeleTables has been developed to evaluate the performance of large language models (LLMs) on interpreting complex tables found in telecommunications engineering specifications. The benchmark, comprising 2,220 tables from 3GPP standards and 500 multiple-choice questions, revealed that current LLMs struggle with domain-specific knowledge, with no general-purpose model achieving over 41% accuracy in a closed-book setting. While performance improves significantly when tables are provided as context, accuracy degrades with increased reasoning depth and structural complexity, highlighting a need for enhanced reasoning capabilities in LLMs for technical table interpretation.
