Zhipeng ZHU, Guo LI, Mark Xuefang ZHU, et al. Evaluating large language models on the core cognitive capabilities expected of technology managers: a hierarchical benchmark[J]. ENGINEERING Information Technology & Electronic Engineering, 2026, 27(10): 1-19. DOI: 10.1631/ENG.ITEE.2026.0168.
Technology managers are instrumental in facilitating technology transfer. While large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated potential in this domain
evaluating them on the core cognitive capabilities expected of technology managers remains challenging due to the lack of domain-specific benchmarks. To address this challenge
we construct TMBench
a domain-specific benchmark for evaluating the cognitive capabilities expected of technology managers. It comprises a collection of 3474 questions spanning diverse scenarios
covering three tasks and five question types. We integrate typical metrics with LLM-as-a-Judge using both fixed and entropy-based weights to calculate the corresponding dimensional and composite scores. Leveraging this mechanism
we evaluate nine representative models under varying prompt configurations and temperature settings to investigate their capabilities
characterize their error patterns
and benchmark them against human experts. Our results show heterogeneous capabilities
with no single model ranking first across all three capability levels. For higher-order capabilities
LLMs show more favorable point estimates than the human baseline
but the differences are not statistically significant. Chain-of-thought-based prompting is associated with prompt-sensitive capability profiles
with more favorable open-weight performance in the two higher-order tasks. Error analysis identifies knowledge base
retrieval
and application deficits as the most prevalent error category. Building on these findings
this study provides a reference for model selection
prompt engineering
and targeted optimization when applying LLMs in technology transfer.
