APeB: Benchmarking Personalization Ability of Large Language Model Agents

Garry Yang, Zizhe Chen, Xinru Chen +9

LLM-powered agents struggle with personalization when users issue raw, underspecified queries. In this setting, agents must infer latent intent, extract preferences from noisy inte…

On Information Self-Locking in Reinforcement Learning for Active Reasoning of LLM agents

Deyu Zou, Yongqiang Chen, Fan Feng +4

Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a de facto paradigm for building LLM-based agents that act, interact, and reason over extended task horizons. However, in active reasoning wh…

Closed-Loop Molecular Design with Calibrated Deference

Newman Cheng, Gordon Broadbent, Jason Dong +11

We present Cognitive Loop via In-Situ Optimization (CLIO), an agent that couples a continuously-updated belief-state graph with a recursive plan-then-act loop. The result is a reas…

Reducing Belief Deviation in Reinforcement Learning for Active Reasoning

Deyu Zou, Yongqiang Chen, Jianxiang Wang +5

Active reasoning requires large language model (LLM) agents to interact with external sources and strategically gather information to solve problems in multiple turns. Central to t…

RoFt-Mol: Benchmarking Robust Fine-Tuning with Molecular Graph Foundation Models

Shikun Liu, Deyu Zou, Nima Shoghi +3

In the era of foundation models, fine-tuning pre-trained models for specific downstream tasks has become crucial. This drives the need for robust fine-tuning methods to address cha…

Weak-to-Strong GraphRAG: Aligning Weak Retrievers with Large Language Models for Graph-based Retrieval Augmented Generation

Deyu Zou, Yongqiang Chen, Mufei Li +5

Graph-based retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enables large language models (LLMs) to ground responses with structured external knowledge from up-to-date knowledge graphs (KGs)…
