:Revealing the Decisive Effect of Instruction Diversity on Generalization
Dylan Zhang, Justin Wang, Francois Charton
Understanding and accurately following instructions is critical for large language models (LLMs) to be effective across diverse tasks. In this work, we rigorously examine the key f…
: Improving Code LMs with Execution-Guided On-Policy Preference Learning Driven By Synthetic Test Cases
Dylan Zhang, Shizhe Diao, Xueyan Zou +1
Preference learning provides a promising solution to address the limitations of supervised fine-tuning (SFT) for code language models, where the model is not explicitly trained to…
From Symbolic Tasks to Code Generation: Diversification Yields Better Task Performers
Dylan Zhang, Justin Wang, Francois Charton
Instruction tuning -- tuning large language models on instruction-output pairs -- is a promising technique for making models better adapted to the real world. Yet, the key factors…
Instruction Diversity Drives Generalization To Unseen Tasks
Dylan Zhang, Justin Wang, Francois Charton
Instruction tuning -- fine-tuning a large language model (LLM) on pairs of instructions and desired outcomes -- is an approach that enables pre-trained language models to perform r…
Transformer-Based Models Are Not Yet Perfect At Learning to Emulate Structural Recursion
Dylan Zhang, Curt Tigges, Zory Zhang +3
This paper investigates the ability of transformer-based models to learn structural recursion from examples. Recursion is a universal concept in both natural and formal languages.…
