CollabEval: Statistically Efficient Collaborative Model Evaluation via Matrix Completion
Adam Fisch, Daniel Deutsch, Joshua Maynez +5
Evaluating generative AI models is a routine, but resource-intensive, process that is conducted over and over again during the course of model development. In this work, we propose…
Multiple-Prediction-Powered Inference
Charlie Cowen-Breen, Alekh Agarwal, Stephen Bates +4
Statistical estimation often involves tradeoffs between expensive, high-quality measurements and a variety of lower-quality proxies. We introduce Multiple-Prediction-Powered Infere…
Bridging Kolmogorov Complexity and Deep Learning: Asymptotically Optimal Description Length Objectives for Transformers
Peter Shaw, James Cohan, Jacob Eisenstein +1
The Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle offers a formal framework for applying Occam's razor in machine learning. However, its application to neural networks such as Transfo…
MT-PingEval: Evaluating Multi-Turn Collaboration with Private Information Games
Jacob Eisenstein, Fantine Huot, Adam Fisch +2
We present a scalable and verifiable methodology for evaluating language models in multi-turn interactions, using a suite of collaborative games that require effective communicatio…
Learning Steerable Clarification Policies with Collaborative Self-play
Jonathan Berant, Maximillian Chen, Adam Fisch +4
To handle underspecified or ambiguous queries, AI assistants need a policy for managing their uncertainty to determine (a) when to guess the user intent and answer directly, (b) wh…
Plantain: Plan-Answer Interleaved Reasoning
Anthony Liang, Jonathan Berant, Adam Fisch +3
Reasoning models often spend a significant amount of time thinking before they generate a visible response. In the meantime, they do not give the user any hints as to whether their…
