Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Regret Optimization for Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback

Yikai Wang, Shang Liu, Jose Blanchet

Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) is a central post-training tool for aligning large language models, but its training reward is only a learned proxy for true human…

Incentivizing High-Quality Human Annotations with Golden Questions

Shang Liu, Zhongze Cai, Hanzhao Wang +2

Human-annotated data plays a vital role in training large language models (LLMs), such as supervised fine-tuning and human preference alignment. However, it is not guaranteed that…

How Humans Help LLMs: Assessing and Incentivizing Human Preference Annotators

Shang Liu, Hanzhao Wang, Zhongyao Ma +1

Human-annotated preference data play an important role in aligning large language models (LLMs). In this paper, we study two connected questions: how to monitor the quality of huma…

Towards Better Statistical Understanding of Watermarking LLMs

Zhongze Cai, Shang Liu, Hanzhao Wang +2

In this paper, we study the problem of watermarking large language models (LLMs). We consider the trade-off between model distortion and detection ability and formulate it as a con…

Reward Modeling with Ordinal Feedback: Wisdom of the Crowd

Shang Liu, Yu Pan, Guanting Chen +1

Learning a reward model (RM) from human preferences has been an important component in aligning large language models (LLMs). The canonical setup of learning RMs from pairwise pref…
