Vocabulary Dropout for Curriculum Diversity in LLM Co-Evolution

Jacob Dineen, Aswin RRV, Zhikun Xu +1

Co-evolutionary self-play, where one language model generates problems and another solves them, promises curriculum learning without human supervision. The promise breaks down earl…

Reliable Use of Lemmas via Eligibility Reasoning and SectionAware Reinforcement Learning

Zhikun Xu, Xiaodong Yu, Ben Zhou +6

Recent large language models (LLMs) perform strongly on mathematical benchmarks yet often misapply lemmas, importing conclusions without validating assumptions. We formalize lemma$…

Evaluating Medical LLMs by Levels of Autonomy: A Survey Moving from Benchmarks to Applications

Xiao Ye, Jacob Dineen, Zhaonan Li +11

Medical Large language models achieve strong scores on standard benchmarks; however, the transfer of those results to safe and reliable performance in clinical workflows remains a…

Atomic Thinking of LLMs: Decoupling and Exploring Mathematical Reasoning Abilities

Jiayi Kuang, Haojing Huang, Yinghui Li +8

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated outstanding performance in mathematical reasoning capabilities. However, we argue that current large-scale reasoning models primarily…

CC-LEARN: Cohort-based Consistency Learning

Xiao Ye, Shaswat Shrivastava, Zhaonan Li +6

Large language models excel at many tasks but still struggle with consistent, robust reasoning. We introduce Cohort-based Consistency Learning (CC-Learn), a reinforcement learning…

BOW: Training Language Models to Reason Over Plausible Next Words

Ming Shen, Zhikun Xu, Jacob Dineen +2

Next-word prediction (NWP) trains language models against a single observed continuation, even though many contexts admit multiple plausible next words. Recent RL-based next-word r…

QA-LIGN: Aligning LLMs through Constitutionally Decomposed QA

Jacob Dineen, Aswin RRV, Qin Liu +8

Alignment of large language models (LLMs) with principles like helpfulness, honesty, and harmlessness typically relies on scalar rewards that obscure which objectives drive the tra…

ToW: Thoughts of Words Improve Reasoning in Large Language Models

Zhikun Xu, Ming Shen, Jacob Dineen +6

We introduce thoughts of words (ToW), a novel training-time data-augmentation method for next-word prediction. ToW views next-word prediction as a core reasoning task and injects f…

Let LLMs Take on the Latest Challenges! A Chinese Dynamic Question Answering Benchmark

Zhikun Xu, Yinghui Li, Ruixue Ding +7

How to better evaluate the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) is the focal point and hot topic in current LLMs research. Previous work has noted that due to the extremely…

Exploiting Abstract Meaning Representation for Open-Domain Question Answering

Cunxiang Wang, Zhikun Xu, Qipeng Guo +4

The Open-Domain Question Answering (ODQA) task involves retrieving and subsequently generating answers from fine-grained relevant passages within a database. Current systems levera…

Evaluating Open-QA Evaluation

Cunxiang Wang, Sirui Cheng, Qipeng Guo +7

This study focuses on the evaluation of the Open Question Answering (Open-QA) task, which can directly estimate the factuality of large language models (LLMs). Current automatic ev…
