Multi-Armed Bandits With Machine Learning-Generated Surrogate Rewards
Wenlong Ji, Yihan Pan, Ruihao Zhu +1
Multi-armed bandit (MAB) is a widely adopted framework for sequential decision-making under uncertainty. Traditional bandit algorithms rely solely on online data, which tends to be…
A Theoretical Framework for Prompt Engineering: Approximating Smooth Functions with Transformer Prompts
Ryumei Nakada, Wenlong Ji, Tianxi Cai +2
Prompt engineering has emerged as a powerful technique for guiding large language models (LLMs) toward desired responses, significantly enhancing their performance across diverse t…
An Overview of Large Language Models for Statisticians
Wenlong Ji, Weizhe Yuan, Emily Getzen +7
Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as transformative tools in artificial intelligence (AI), exhibiting remarkable capabilities across diverse tasks such as text generation,…
Predictions as Surrogates: Revisiting Surrogate Outcomes in the Age of AI
Wenlong Ji, Lihua Lei, Tijana Zrnic
We establish a formal connection between the decades-old surrogate outcome model in biostatistics and economics and the emerging field of prediction-powered inference (PPI). The co…
