R2V Agent: Teaching SLMs When to Ask for Help

Raghu Vamshi Hemadri, Humaira Firdowse Mohammed, Rishabh Maheshwary +5

Efficient agentic systems should incur expensive frontier-model costs only on decisions where a cheaper local model is likely to fail. Existing LLM cascades usually route whole que…

Do Enterprise Systems Need Learned World Models? The Importance of Context to Infer Dynamics

Jishnu Sethumadhavan Nair, Patrice Bechard, Rishabh Maheshwary +14

World models enable agents to anticipate the effects of their actions by internalizing environment dynamics. In enterprise systems, however, these dynamics are often defined by ten…

Apriel-1.5-15b-Thinker

Shruthan Radhakrishna, Aman Tiwari, Aanjaneya Shukla +21

We present Apriel-1.5-15B-Thinker, a 15-billion parameter open-weights multimodal reasoning model that achieves frontier-level performance through training design rather than sheer…

Apriel-Nemotron-15B-Thinker

Shruthan Radhakrishna, Soham Parikh, Gopal Sarda +32

While large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable reasoning capabilities across domains like code, math and other enterprise tasks, their significant memory and computati…

Augmenting LLM Reasoning with Dynamic Notes Writing for Complex QA

Rishabh Maheshwary, Masoud Hashemi, Khyati Mahajan +5

Iterative RAG for multi-hop question answering faces challenges with lengthy contexts and the buildup of irrelevant information. This hinders a model's capacity to process and reas…

Kaleidoscope: In-language Exams for Massively Multilingual Vision Evaluation

Israfel Salazar, Manuel Fernández Burda, Shayekh Bin Islam +42

The evaluation of vision-language models (VLMs) has mainly relied on English-language benchmarks, leaving significant gaps in both multilingual and multicultural coverage. While mu…

INCLUDE: Evaluating Multilingual Language Understanding with Regional Knowledge

Angelika Romanou, Negar Foroutan, Anna Sotnikova +56

The performance differential of large language models (LLM) between languages hinders their effective deployment in many regions, inhibiting the potential economic and societal val…

M-RewardBench: Evaluating Reward Models in Multilingual Settings

Srishti Gureja, Lester James V. Miranda, Shayekh Bin Islam +7

Reward models (RMs) have driven the state-of-the-art performance of LLMs today by enabling the integration of human feedback into the language modeling process. However, RMs are pr…

M2Lingual: Enhancing Multilingual, Multi-Turn Instruction Alignment in Large Language Models

Rishabh Maheshwary, Vikas Yadav, Hoang Nguyen +2

Instruction finetuning (IFT) is critical for aligning Large Language Models (LLMs) to follow instructions. While many effective IFT datasets have been introduced recently, they pre…

Curry-DPO: Enhancing Alignment using Curriculum Learning & Ranked Preferences

Pulkit Pattnaik, Rishabh Maheshwary, Kelechi Ogueji +2

Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) is an effective technique that leverages pairwise preference data (usually one chosen and rejected response pair per user prompt) to align LLMs…

Improving Selective Visual Question Answering by Learning from Your Peers

Corentin Dancette, Spencer Whitehead, Rishabh Maheshwary +5

Despite advances in Visual Question Answering (VQA), the ability of models to assess their own correctness remains underexplored. Recent work has shown that VQA models, out-of-the-…

Practice Makes a Solver Perfect: Data Augmentation for Math Word Problem Solvers

Vivek Kumar, Rishabh Maheshwary, Vikram Pudi

Existing Math Word Problem (MWP) solvers have achieved high accuracy on benchmark datasets. However, prior works have shown that such solvers do not generalize well and rely on sup…

A Strong Baseline for Query Efficient Attacks in a Black Box Setting

Rishabh Maheshwary, Saket Maheshwary, Vikram Pudi

Existing black box search methods have achieved high success rate in generating adversarial attacks against NLP models. However, such search methods are inefficient as they do not…
