Your Transformer Is Secretly Elastic

Walter Simoncini, Dheeraj Varghese, Gertjan J. Burghouts +1

Scaling up transformers has produced models with broad capabilities, deployed across heterogeneous hardware and fluctuating workloads. Yet, model families offer only a few fixed si…

CollabEval: Statistically Efficient Collaborative Model Evaluation via Matrix Completion

Adam Fisch, Daniel Deutsch, Joshua Maynez +5

Evaluating generative AI models is a routine, but resource-intensive, process that is conducted over and over again during the course of model development. In this work, we propose…

Cost-Optimal Active AI Model Evaluation

Anastasios N. Angelopoulos, Jacob Eisenstein, Jonathan Berant +2

The development lifecycle of generative AI systems requires continual evaluation, data acquisition, and annotation, which is costly in both resources and time. In practice, rapid i…

Optimizing Pre-Training Data Mixtures with Mixtures of Data Expert Models

Lior Belenki, Alekh Agarwal, Tianze Shi +1

We propose a method to optimize language model pre-training data mixtures through efficient approximation of the cross-entropy loss corresponding to each candidate mixture via a Mi…

Rewarding Progress: Scaling Automated Process Verifiers for LLM Reasoning

Amrith Setlur, Chirag Nagpal, Adam Fisch +6

A promising approach for improving reasoning in large language models is to use process reward models (PRMs). PRMs provide feedback at each step of a multi-step reasoning trace, po…

Robust Preference Optimization through Reward Model Distillation

Adam Fisch, Jacob Eisenstein, Vicky Zayats +5

Language model (LM) post-training (or alignment) involves maximizing a reward function that is derived from preference annotations. Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) is a popula…

Theoretical guarantees on the best-of-n alignment policy

Ahmad Beirami, Alekh Agarwal, Jonathan Berant +4

A simple and effective method for the inference-time alignment and scaling test-time compute of generative models is best-of- sampling, where samples are drawn from a refere…

Helping or Herding? Reward Model Ensembles Mitigate but do not Eliminate Reward Hacking

Jacob Eisenstein, Chirag Nagpal, Alekh Agarwal +9

Reward models play a key role in aligning language model applications towards human preferences. However, this setup creates an incentive for the language model to exploit errors i…
