Is Discrete Difficulty Sufficient? Leveraging Continuous Difficulty for Efficient Self-Consistency in LLMs

Sihyeong Yeom, Geon Park, Geunyeong Jeong +3

Self-Consistency (SC) is a decoding strategy that samples diverse reasoning paths and selects the most consistent answer, demonstrating strong performance on complex reasoning prob…

GRASP: GRanularity-Aware Search Policy for Agentic RAG

Varun Gandhi, Jaewook Lee, Shantanu Todmal +4

Agentic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) extends static RAG by allowing language models to iteratively reason, generate search queries, retrieve evidence, and predict answers.…

Beyond Attack Success Rate: Temporal Logit Observability for LLM Safety Failures

Junyoung Park, Sunghwan Park, Seongyong Ju +1

Attack Success Rate (ASR) evaluates each jailbreak with a single yes/no label at the end of generation, telling us whether a failure happened but not how it unfolded. Two attacks t…
