TADDLE: A Tool-Augmented Agent for Detecting Deficient LLM-Generated Peer Reviews
The article introduces TADDLE, a tool designed to detect deficiencies in peer reviews generated by large language models (LLMs). This system aims to address the challenges of identifying quality issues in LLM-generated reviews, which are often fluent and well-structured. TADDLE utilizes a benchmark of 1,800 reviews and employs a multi-faceted approach to classify and analyze these reviews effectively.
- ▪TADDLE is a Tool-Augmented Agent developed to detect deficiencies in LLM-generated peer reviews.
- ▪The system is based on a benchmark of 1,800 reviews from 50 ICLR 2025 papers, annotated by 18 domain experts.
- ▪TADDLE employs four specialized analysis tools and uses a two-stage semi-supervised learning approach for classification.

Existing work either classifies authorship without judging quality, or scores quality with features designed for human-written reviews; no prior system detects deficiencies in LLM-generated reviews at the level of individual defect types.
