As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in educational environments, two critical challenges emerge: identifying the source of tutoring responses and evaluating their pedagogical effectiveness. This paper presents our comprehensive approach to the BEA 2025 Shared Task, addressing both tutor identity classification (Track 5) and actionability assessment (Track 4) in mathematical tutoring dialogues. For tutor identity classification, we distinguish between human tutors (expert/novice) and seven distinct LLMs using cross-response context augmentation and ensemble techniques. For actionability assessment, we evaluate whether responses provide clear guidance on student next steps using selective attention masking and instruction-guided training. Our multi-task approach combines transformer-based models with innovative contextual feature engineering, achieving state-of-the-art performance with a CV macro F1 score of 0.9596 (test set 0.9698) for identity classification and 0.655 (test set Strict F1 0.6906) for actionability assessment. We were able to score rank 5th in Track 4 and rank 1st in Track 5. Our analysis reveals that despite advances in human-like responses, LLMs maintain detectable fingerprints while showing varying levels of pedagogical actionability, with important implications for educational technology development and deployment.

As part of the SOMD 2025 shared task on Software Mention Detection, we solved the problem of detecting and disambiguating software mentions in academic texts. a very important but under appreciated factor in research transparency and reproducibility. Software is an essential building block of scientific activity, but it often does not receive official citation in scholarly literature, and there are many informal mentions that are hard to follow and analyse. In order to enhance research accessibility and interpretability, we built a system that identifies software mentions and their properties (e.g., version numbers, URLs) as named entities, and classify relationships between them. Our dataset contained approximately 1,100 manually annotated sentences of full-text scholarly articles, representing diverse types of software like operating systems and applications. We fine-tuned DeBERTa based models for the Named Entity Recognition (NER) task and handled Relation Extraction (RE) as a classification problem over entity pairs. Due to the dataset size, we employed Large Language Models to create synthetic training data for augmentation. Our system achieved strong performance, with a 65% F1 score on NER (ranking 2nd in test phase) and a 47% F1 score on RE and combined macro 56% F1, showing the performance of our approach in this area.
