Vocabulary Dropout for Curriculum Diversity in LLM Co-Evolution

Jacob Dineen, Aswin RRV, Zhikun Xu +1

Co-evolutionary self-play, where one language model generates problems and another solves them, promises curriculum learning without human supervision. The promise breaks down earl…

Skill Reuse as Compression in Agentic RL

Zhikun Xu, Yu Feng, Jacob Dineen +3

Large language model agents trained with reinforcement learning (RL) often learn brittle, task-specific shortcuts. We hypothesize that agents generalize better when their successfu…

VisAnalog: A Diagnostic Suite for Visual Concept Transfer on Natural Images

Zhaonan Li, Kyle R. Chickering, Bangzheng Li +13

A useful test of visual concept learning is not just whether a model can recognize a concept in a single image, but whether it can preserve and manipulate concept-level properties…

Mid-Training with Self-Generated Data Improves Reinforcement Learning in Language Models

Aswin RRV, Jacob Dineen, Divij Handa +4

The effectiveness of Reinforcement Learning (RL) in Large Language Models (LLMs) depends on the nature and diversity of the data used before and during RL. In particular, reasoning…

RECAP: Transparent Inference-Time Emotion Alignment for Medical Dialogue Systems

Adarsh Srinivasan, Jacob Dineen, Muhammad Umar Afzal +3

Large language models in healthcare often produce emotionally flat or opaque responses, failing to provide the transparent reasoning required for clinical trust. We present RECAP (…
