LLM-INSTRUCT at UZH Shared Task 2026: Constraint-Aware Retrieval and Selective Debate for Paragraph-Level Argument Mining

Short summary

LLM-INSTRUCT won the UZH Shared Task at ArgMining 2026 for paragraph-level argument mining in UN/UNESCO resolutions using open-weight models up to 8B parameters. The system narrows candidate tags via dense retrieval, applies constrained decoding, escalates uncertain cases to three-agent debate, and validates JSON schema output. Key lesson: reducing the decision space before generation improves both accuracy and robustness.

  • Winning system for UZH ArgMining 2026 shared task on paragraph-level argument mining
  • Uses dense retrieval, constrained decoding, and selective three-agent debate with open-weight models ≤8B
  • Reducing decision space before generation is the core insight; code is open-sourced
