Visualising Policy-Reward Interplay to Inform Zeroth-Order Preference Optimisation of Large Language Models

Alessio Galatolo, Zhenbang Dai, Katie Winkle +1

Fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) with first-order methods like back-propagation is computationally intensive. Zeroth-Order (ZO) optimisation uses function evaluations inste…

Ultrafast Vibrational Control of Hybrid Perovskite Devices Reveals the Influence of the Organic Cation on Electronic Dynamics

Nathaniel. P. Gallop, Dmitry R. Maslennikov, Katelyn P. Goetz +10

Vibrational control (VC) of photochemistry through the optical stimulation of structural dynamics is a nascent concept only recently demonstrated for model molecules in solution. E…

Magnetic Bulk Photovoltaic Effect: Strong and Weak Field

Zhenbang Dai, Andrew M. Rappe

Shift current and ballistic current have been proposed to explain the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE), and there have been experiments designed to separate the two mechanisms. Thes…
