Enhancing LLM Planning Capabilities through Intrinsic Self-Critique

Bernd Bohnet, Pierre-Alexandre Kamienny, Hanie Sedghi +7

We demonstrate an approach for LLMs to critique their \emph{own} answers with the goal of enhancing their performance that leads to significant improvements over established planni…

Improving Large Language Model Planning with Action Sequence Similarity

Xinran Zhao, Hanie Sedghi, Bernd Bohnet +2

Planning is essential for artificial intelligence systems to look ahead and proactively determine a course of actions to reach objectives in the virtual and real world. Recent work…

Training Language Models on the Knowledge Graph: Insights on Hallucinations and Their Detectability

Jiri Hron, Laura Culp, Gamaleldin Elsayed +28

While many capabilities of language models (LMs) improve with increased training budget, the influence of scale on hallucinations is not yet fully understood. Hallucinations come i…

UQE: A Query Engine for Unstructured Databases

Hanjun Dai, Bethany Yixin Wang, Xingchen Wan +7

Analytics on structured data is a mature field with many successful methods. However, most real world data exists in unstructured form, such as images and conversations. We investi…

Exploring and Benchmarking the Planning Capabilities of Large Language Models

Bernd Bohnet, Azade Nova, Aaron T Parisi +6

Classical and natural language planning tasks remain a difficult domain for modern large language models (LLMs). In this work, we lay the foundations for improving planning capabil…

Long-Span Question-Answering: Automatic Question Generation and QA-System Ranking via Side-by-Side Evaluation

Bernd Bohnet, Kevin Swersky, Rosanne Liu +9

We explore the use of long-context capabilities in large language models to create synthetic reading comprehension data from entire books. Previous efforts to construct such datase…

Many-Shot In-Context Learning

Rishabh Agarwal, Avi Singh, Lei M. Zhang +12

Large language models (LLMs) excel at few-shot in-context learning (ICL) -- learning from a few examples provided in context at inference, without any weight updates. Newly expande…

Beyond Human Data: Scaling Self-Training for Problem-Solving with Language Models

Avi Singh, John D. Co-Reyes, Rishabh Agarwal +38

Fine-tuning language models~(LMs) on human-generated data remains a prevalent practice. However, the performance of such models is often limited by the quantity and diversity of hi…

Frontier Language Models are not Robust to Adversarial Arithmetic, or "What do I need to say so you agree 2+2=5?

C. Daniel Freeman, Laura Culp, Aaron Parisi +27

We introduce and study the problem of adversarial arithmetic, which provides a simple yet challenging testbed for language model alignment. This problem is comprised of arithmetic…

Gradient-Free Structured Pruning with Unlabeled Data

Azade Nova, Hanjun Dai, Dale Schuurmans

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved great success in solving difficult tasks across many domains, but such success comes with a high computation cost, and inference latency.…

Teaching Algorithmic Reasoning via In-context Learning

Hattie Zhou, Azade Nova, Hugo Larochelle +3

Large language models (LLMs) have shown increasing in-context learning capabilities through scaling up model and data size. Despite this progress, LLMs are still unable to solve al…

Maximizing Fair Content Spread via Edge Suggestion in Social Networks

Ian P. Swift, Sana Ebrahimi, Azade Nova +1

Content spread inequity is a potential unfairness issue in online social networks, disparately impacting minority groups. In this paper, we view friendship suggestion, a common fea…
