Exploring and Benchmarking the Planning Capabilities of Large Language Models

Bernd Bohnet, Azade Nova, Aaron T Parisi +6

Classical and natural language planning tasks remain a difficult domain for modern large language models (LLMs). In this work, we lay the foundations for improving planning capabil…

Enhancing LLM Planning Capabilities through Intrinsic Self-Critique

Bernd Bohnet, Pierre-Alexandre Kamienny, Hanie Sedghi +7

We demonstrate an approach for LLMs to critique their \emph{own} answers with the goal of enhancing their performance that leads to significant improvements over established planni…

Long-Span Question-Answering: Automatic Question Generation and QA-System Ranking via Side-by-Side Evaluation

Bernd Bohnet, Kevin Swersky, Rosanne Liu +9

We explore the use of long-context capabilities in large language models to create synthetic reading comprehension data from entire books. Previous efforts to construct such datase…

Beyond Human Data: Scaling Self-Training for Problem-Solving with Language Models

Avi Singh, John D. Co-Reyes, Rishabh Agarwal +38

Fine-tuning language models~(LMs) on human-generated data remains a prevalent practice. However, the performance of such models is often limited by the quantity and diversity of hi…

Teaching Algorithmic Reasoning via In-context Learning

Hattie Zhou, Azade Nova, Hugo Larochelle +3

Large language models (LLMs) have shown increasing in-context learning capabilities through scaling up model and data size. Despite this progress, LLMs are still unable to solve al…

Improving Large Language Model Planning with Action Sequence Similarity

Xinran Zhao, Hanie Sedghi, Bernd Bohnet +2

Planning is essential for artificial intelligence systems to look ahead and proactively determine a course of actions to reach objectives in the virtual and real world. Recent work…
