HumanLM: Simulating Users with State Alignment Beats Response Imitation
Shirley Wu, Evelyn Choi, Arpandeep Khatua +7
Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used to simulate how specific users respond to a given context, enabling more user-centric applications that rely on user feedback. Ho…
Optimas: Optimizing Compound AI Systems with Globally Aligned Local Rewards
Shirley Wu, Parth Sarthi, Shiyu Zhao +10
Compound AI systems integrating multiple components, such as Large Language Models, specialized tools, and traditional machine learning models, are increasingly deployed to solve c…
SiriuS: Self-improving Multi-agent Systems via Bootstrapped Reasoning
Wanjia Zhao, Mert Yuksekgonul, Shirley Wu +1
Multi-agent AI systems powered by large language models (LLMs) are increasingly applied to solve complex tasks. However, these systems often rely on fragile, manually designed prom…
CollabLLM: From Passive Responders to Active Collaborators
Shirley Wu, Michel Galley, Baolin Peng +7
Large Language Models are typically trained with next-turn rewards, limiting their ability to optimize for long-term interaction. As a result, they often respond passively to ambig…
