Simulating Complex Multi-Turn Tool Calling Interactions in Stateless Execution Environments
Maxwell Crouse, Ibrahim Abdelaziz, Kshitij Fadnis +6
Synthetic data has proven itself to be a valuable resource for tuning smaller, cost-effective language models to handle the complexities of multi-turn tool calling conversations. W…
NESTFUL: A Benchmark for Evaluating LLMs on Nested Sequences of API Calls
Kinjal Basu, Ibrahim Abdelaziz, Kiran Kate +10
The resurgence of autonomous agents built using large language models (LLMs) to solve complex real-world tasks has brought increased focus on LLMs' fundamental ability of tool or f…
Granite-Function Calling Model: Introducing Function Calling Abilities via Multi-task Learning of Granular Tasks
Ibrahim Abdelaziz, Kinjal Basu, Mayank Agarwal +23
Large language models (LLMs) have recently shown tremendous promise in serving as the backbone to agentic systems, as demonstrated by their performance in multi-faceted, challengin…
API-BLEND: A Comprehensive Corpora for Training and Benchmarking API LLMs
Kinjal Basu, Ibrahim Abdelaziz, Subhajit Chaudhury +7
There is a growing need for Large Language Models (LLMs) to effectively use tools and external Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to plan and complete tasks. As such, there…
Formally Specifying the High-Level Behavior of LLM-Based Agents
Maxwell Crouse, Ibrahim Abdelaziz, Ramon Astudillo +7
Autonomous, goal-driven agents powered by LLMs have recently emerged as promising tools for solving challenging problems without the need for task-specific finetuned models that ca…
Slide, Constrain, Parse, Repeat: Synchronous SlidingWindows for Document AMR Parsing
Sadhana Kumaravel, Tahira Naseem, Ramon Fernandez Astudillo +2
The sliding window approach provides an elegant way to handle contexts of sizes larger than the Transformer's input window, for tasks like language modeling. Here we extend this ap…
DocAMR: Multi-Sentence AMR Representation and Evaluation
Tahira Naseem, Austin Blodgett, Sadhana Kumaravel +7
Despite extensive research on parsing of English sentences into Abstraction Meaning Representation (AMR) graphs, which are compared to gold graphs via the Smatch metric, full-docum…
Circles are like Ellipses, or Ellipses are like Circles? Measuring the Degree of Asymmetry of Static and Contextual Embeddings and the Implications to Representation Learning
Wei Zhang, Murray Campbell, Yang Yu +1
Human judgments of word similarity have been a popular method of evaluating the quality of word embedding. But it fails to measure the geometry properties such as asymmetry. For ex…
Text-based RL Agents with Commonsense Knowledge: New Challenges, Environments and Baselines
Keerthiram Murugesan, Mattia Atzeni, Pavan Kapanipathi +6
Text-based games have emerged as an important test-bed for Reinforcement Learning (RL) research, requiring RL agents to combine grounded language understanding with sequential deci…
Beyond Backprop: Online Alternating Minimization with Auxiliary Variables
Anna Choromanska, Benjamin Cowen, Sadhana Kumaravel +8
Despite significant recent advances in deep neural networks, training them remains a challenge due to the highly non-convex nature of the objective function. State-of-the-art metho…
