How LLM Task-Adaptation Reshapes Alignment: A Multi-dimensional Study of Behavioral and Representational Drift
James Elcock, William F. Shen, Xinchi Qiu +1
Post-training is a key mechanism for adapting large language models to downstream tasks. While prior work suggests that task adaptation can alter a model's pre-existing alignment,…
The Red Queen Gödel Machine: Co-Evolving Agents and Their Evaluators
Alex Iacob, Andrej JovanoviÄ, William F. Shen +10
Self-improving agents are state-of-the-art (SOTA) on agentic coding benchmarks and have recently been extended to general domains. However, their search methods generally assume a…
FoMoE: Breaking the Full-Replica Barrier with a Federation of MoEs
Lorenzo Sani, Zeyu Cao, Meghdad Kurmanji +5
Pre-training Large Language Models (LLMs) typically demands large-scale infrastructure with tightly coupled hardware accelerators. Mixture-of-Experts (MoEs) architectures partially…
LoRDO: Distributed Low-Rank Optimization with Infrequent Communication
Andrej JovanoviÄ, Alex Iacob, Mher Safaryan +6
Distributed training of foundation models via is limited by interconnect bandwidth. While infrequent communication strategies reduce synchronization frequency, they…
PreLort: Prefix-Nested LoRA for Federated Fine-Tuning under Rank Heterogeneity
Muhammad Waseem, Nurbek Tastan, Andrej Jovanovic +4
Federated fine-tuning of large language models using parameter-efficient methods such as LoRA enables privacy-preserving adaptation of foundation models. Heterogeneous hardware res…
Photon: Federated LLM Pre-Training
Lorenzo Sani, Alex Iacob, Zeyu Cao +8
Scaling large language models (LLMs) demands extensive data and computing resources, which are traditionally constrained to data centers by the high-bandwidth requirements of distr…
