Participating again in this year’s edition of the CRAC shared task on coreference resolution, we present our upgraded system with an official uplift of 15.46 percentage points in CoNLL-U score. We incorporated the larger Gemma 3 27B IT model, joint pre-training, headword tagging, more efficient training and inference as well as a sliding window to achieve this result. Our system placed second in the LLM track and third overall with a primary score of 73.83. We reached the highest scores on two datasets. Finally, we compare specialized and general LLM approaches.
