Autoregressive Large Language Models are Computationally Universal
Dale Schuurmans, Hanjun Dai, Francesco Zanini
We show that autoregressive decoding of a transformer-based language model can realize universal computation, without external intervention or modification of the model's weights.…
Matryoshka Pilot: Learning to Drive Black-Box LLMs with LLMs
Changhao Li, Yuchen Zhuang, Rushi Qiang +4
Despite the impressive generative abilities of black-box large language models (LLMs), their inherent opacity hinders further advancements in capabilities such as reasoning, planni…
Faster WIND: Accelerating Iterative Best-of- Distillation for LLM Alignment
Tong Yang, Jincheng Mei, Hanjun Dai +5
Recent advances in aligning large language models with human preferences have corroborated the growing importance of best-of-N distillation (BOND). However, the iterative BOND algo…
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…
Value-Incentivized Preference Optimization: A Unified Approach to Online and Offline RLHF
Shicong Cen, Jincheng Mei, Katayoon Goshvadi +6
Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) has demonstrated great promise in aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preference. Depending on the availability of pr…
Beyond Expectations: Learning with Stochastic Dominance Made Practical
Shicong Cen, Jincheng Mei, Hanjun Dai +3
Stochastic dominance serves as a general framework for modeling a broad spectrum of decision preferences under uncertainty, with risk aversion as one notable example, as it natural…
