Modularized Reinforcement Learning on LLMs: From MDP Creation to Exploration and Learning
Zhao Yang, Yuxuan Jiang, Ting-Chih Chen +18
Reinforcement learning (RL) has become central to LLM post-training, yet the methods that dominate current pipelines, PPO and GRPO, represent only a narrow slice of what RL offers.…
Diffusion and Flow Matching Models for Tabular Data: A Survey
Zhong Li, Qi Huang, Lincen Yang +5
Deep generative models have made rapid progress in image, text, audio, and video generation, and are increasingly being applied to structured records. For tabular data, however, ge…
MM-OptBench: A Solver-Grounded Benchmark for Multimodal Optimization Modeling
Zhong Li, Qi Huang, Yuxuan Zhu +6
Optimization modeling translates real decision-making problems into mathematical optimization models and solver-executable implementations. Although language models are increasingl…
From Heuristic Selection to Automated Algorithm Design: LLMs Benefit from Strong Priors
Qi Huang, Furong Ye, Ananta Shahane +2
Large Language Models (LLMs) have already been widely adopted for automated algorithm design, demonstrating strong abilities in generating and evolving algorithms across various fi…
Scalable, Explainable and Provably Robust Anomaly Detection with One-Step Flow Matching
Zhong Li, Qi Huang, Yuxuan Zhu +4
We introduce Time-Conditioned Contraction Matching (TCCM), a novel method for semi-supervised anomaly detection in tabular data. TCCM is inspired by flow matching, a recent generat…
Why Are You Wrong? Counterfactual Explanations for Language Grounding with 3D Objects
Tobias Preintner, Weixuan Yuan, Qi Huang +4
Combining natural language and geometric shapes is an emerging research area with multiple applications in robotics and language-assisted design. A crucial task in this domain is o…
