No More Free Lunch: Corpus Task Complexity Matters as Corpora Grow

Prasann Singhal, Amanda Bertsch, Jacob Steinhardt +1

Given a large corpus, the questions one might ask can vary -- from "When was the first human heart transplant?" to "What are all the contradictory claims in this literature?" -- bu…

Can Language Models Actually Retrieve In-Context? Drowning in Documents at Million Token Scale

Siddharth Gollapudi, Nilesh Gupta, Prasann Singhal +1

Language models (LMs) raise an intriguing alternative to vector-based retrieval: conditioning on an in-context corpus and directly generating a relevant answer. However, prior work…

Adaptive Margin RLHF via Preference over Preferences

Yaswanth Chittepu, Prasann Singhal, Greg Durrett +1

Margin-based optimization is fundamental to improving generalization and robustness in classification tasks. In the context of reward model learning from preferences within Reinfor…

Assessing Robustness to Spurious Correlations in Post-Training Language Models

Julia Shuieh, Prasann Singhal, Apaar Shanker +3

Supervised and preference-based fine-tuning techniques have become popular for aligning large language models (LLMs) with user intent and correctness criteria. However, real-world…

ChartMuseum: Testing Visual Reasoning Capabilities of Large Vision-Language Models

Liyan Tang, Grace Kim, Xinyu Zhao +12

Chart understanding presents a unique challenge for large vision-language models (LVLMs), as it requires the integration of sophisticated textual and visual reasoning capabilities.…

To CoT or not to CoT? Chain-of-thought helps mainly on math and symbolic reasoning

Zayne Sprague, Fangcong Yin, Juan Diego Rodriguez +7

Chain-of-thought (CoT) via prompting is the de facto method for eliciting reasoning capabilities from large language models (LLMs). But for what kinds of tasks is this extra ``thin…

D2PO: Discriminator-Guided DPO with Response Evaluation Models

Prasann Singhal, Nathan Lambert, Scott Niekum +2

Varied approaches for aligning language models have been proposed, including supervised fine-tuning, RLHF, and direct optimization methods such as DPO. Although DPO has rapidly gai…

A Long Way to Go: Investigating Length Correlations in RLHF

Prasann Singhal, Tanya Goyal, Jiacheng Xu +1

Great success has been reported using Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) to align large language models, with open preference datasets enabling wider experimentation…

EEL: Efficiently Encoding Lattices for Reranking

Prasann Singhal, Jiacheng Xu, Xi Ye +1

Standard decoding approaches for conditional text generation tasks typically search for an output hypothesis with high model probability, but this may not yield the best hypothesis…

Assessing Out-of-Domain Language Model Performance from Few Examples

Prasann Singhal, Jarad Forristal, Xi Ye +1

While pretrained language models have exhibited impressive generalization capabilities, they still behave unpredictably under certain domain shifts. In particular, a model may lear…
