New benchmark tests LLMs on mental health knowledge and reasoning

Researchers have developed MHGraphBench, a new benchmark designed to evaluate how well large language models understand and apply knowledge related to mental health. The benchmark uses a knowledge graph derived from PrimeKG and includes tasks focused on entity recognition, relation judgment, and reasoning. Initial experiments show that while leading models perform well on basic entity recognition, they still struggle with more complex relation prediction and reasoning tasks, indicating a gap between recognition and application of knowledge.

    MHGraphBench: Knowledge Graph-Grounded Benchmarking of Mental Health Knowledge in Large Language Models

    Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in the mental health domain, yet it remains unclear how well they capture related biomedical knowledge and how reliably they apply it to clinically salient structured judgments. Here, we present a knowledge-graph (KG)-grounded be…
