Reviewer paper summaries: This paper explores the potential of large language models to autonomously populate knowledge bases from natural language texts without human intervention. This paper introduces LLaMA-KBP, which allows LLMs to identify knowledge structures, link external knowledge, and verify extracted information through a self-reflection mechanism to reduce hallucinations. The framework is tested on Wiki-NRE and Geo-NRE datasets, demonstrating competitive performance compared to traditional supervised methods.
Summary of strengths: 1. This framework's ability to autonomously identify knowledge structures, link external knowledge, and verify extracted information using a self-reflection mechanism is a novel approach that addresses existing challenges in KBP.

2. The paper presents comprehensive experimental results on Wiki-NRE and Geo-NRE, demonstrating that the LLaMA-KBP framework achieves competitive performance compared to traditional supervised methods.
Summary of weaknesses: 1. While the proposed LLaMA-KBP framework demonstrates potential, its impact may be perceived as limited if it does not significantly outperform existing methods.

2. The paper focuses primarily on the LLaMA series of models, which may raise concerns about the generalizability of the findings to other LLM architectures. 

3. While the self-reflection mechanism to reduce hallucinations is a noteworthy contribution, its effectiveness might be questioned if not adequately validated.
Comments, suggestions and typos: 1. Include a more comprehensive comparison with a wider range of baseline methods, including both traditional and state-of-the-art techniques. Highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of LLaMA-KBP in comparison to these methods would provide a clearer picture of its contributions and impact.
2. Conduct a thorough error analysis to identify common failure cases and the reasons behind them. This could provide valuable insights into areas where the framework could be improved.
Overall assessment scores: 2.5
