LLM-WikiRace Benchmark: How Far Can LLMs Plan over Real-World Knowledge Graphs?

Juliusz Ziomek, William Bankes, Lorenz Wolf +3

We introduce LLM-Wikirace, a benchmark for evaluating planning, reasoning, and world knowledge in large language models (LLMs). In LLM-Wikirace, models must efficiently navigate Wi…

Robust Multi-Objective Controlled Decoding of Large Language Models

Seongho Son, William Bankes, Sangwoong Yoon +3

We introduce Robust Multi-Objective Decoding (RMOD), a novel inference-time algorithm that robustly aligns Large Language Models (LLMs) to multiple human objectives (e.g., instruct…

On Almost Surely Safe Alignment of Large Language Models at Inference-Time

Xiaotong Ji, Shyam Sundhar Ramesh, Matthieu Zimmer +3

We introduce a novel inference-time alignment approach for LLMs that aims to generate safe responses almost surely, i.e., with probability approaching one. Our approach models the…

PERSONA: A Reproducible Testbed for Pluralistic Alignment

Louis Castricato, Nathan Lile, Rafael Rafailov +2

The rapid advancement of language models (LMs) necessitates robust alignment with diverse user values. However, current preference optimization approaches often fail to capture the…

Group Robust Preference Optimization in Reward-free RLHF

Shyam Sundhar Ramesh, Yifan Hu, Iason Chaimalas +4

Adapting large language models (LLMs) for specific tasks usually involves fine-tuning through reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) on preference data. While these data…
