Kernel Autoresearch for Open-Ended Model Discovery

Richard Cornelius Suwandi, Feng Yin, Kevin Murphy

Kernels encode the inductive bias of a wide range of machine learning models, yet automated kernel design faces a fundamental dilemma. A fixed grammar of base kernels and operators…

Model Discovery Agent: LLM-assisted Bayesian experiment design for data-efficient discovery of mechanistic world models

Kevin Murphy

A primary goal of science is to learn mechanistic world models from limited experimental data, both to explain observations and to predict novel interventions. We introduce the Mod…

Language Model Cascades

David Dohan, Winnie Xu, Aitor Lewkowycz +9

Prompted models have demonstrated impressive few-shot learning abilities. Repeated interactions at test-time with a single model, or the composition of multiple models together, fu…

Plex: Towards Reliability using Pretrained Large Model Extensions

Dustin Tran, Jeremiah Liu, Michael W. Dusenberry +23

A recent trend in artificial intelligence is the use of pretrained models for language and vision tasks, which have achieved extraordinary performance but also puzzling failures. P…
