Complex event processing emerged as a computational paradigm to detect patterns in event streams based on the continuous evaluation of event queries. Once such queries are evaluated in a network of event sources, efficient query evaluation may be achieved through the distributed evaluation of queries.

While large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive NLP capabilities, existing information retrieval applications mainly focus on prompting LLMs for query expansions or generating permutations for listwise reranking.
