Characterizing Web Search by Conversational LLM Agents: From Search Decisions and Strategies to Results and Responses

Mahsa Amani, Seungeon Lee, Abhisek Dash +9

Conversational LLM agents increasingly rely on Web search, yet the end-to-end lifecycle of agentic search remains poorly understood. We present the first study of Web search across…

Fine-tuning vs. In-context Learning in Large Language Models: A Formal Language Learning Perspective

Bishwamittra Ghosh, Soumi Das, Till Speicher +5

Large language models (LLMs) operate in two fundamental learning modes - fine-tuning (FT) and in-context learning (ICL) - raising key questions about which mode yields greater lang…
