Balancing Classification and Calibration Performance in Decision-Making LLMs via Calibration Aware Reinforcement Learning
Duygu Nur Yaldiz, Evangelia Spiliopoulou, Zheng Qi +3
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in decision-making tasks, where not only accuracy but also reliable confidence estimates are essential. Well-calibrated confi…
Hair-Trigger Alignment: Black-Box Evaluation Cannot Guarantee Post-Update Alignment
Yavuz Bakman, Duygu Nur Yaldiz, Eleni Triantafillou +3
Large Language Models (LLMs) are rarely static and are frequently updated in practice. A growing body of alignment research has shown that models initially deemed ``aligned'' can e…
Reject Only Critical Tokens: Pivot-Aware Speculative Decoding
Amir Ziashahabi, Yavuz Faruk Bakman, Duygu Nur Yaldiz +3
Speculative Decoding (SD) ensures that the output matches the target model's distribution exactly. However, we argue that this distribution matching requirement is too stringent an…
Conformal Prediction Adaptive to Unknown Subpopulation Shifts
Nien-Shao Wang, Duygu Nur Yaldiz, Yavuz Faruk Bakman +1
Conformal prediction is widely used to equip black-box machine learning models with uncertainty quantification, offering formal coverage guarantees under exchangeable data. However…
Reconsidering LLM Uncertainty Estimation Methods in the Wild
Yavuz Bakman, Duygu Nur Yaldiz, Sungmin Kang +4
Large Language Model (LLM) Uncertainty Estimation (UE) methods have become a crucial tool for detecting hallucinations in recent years. While numerous UE methods have been proposed…
Federated Orthogonal Training: Mitigating Global Catastrophic Forgetting in Continual Federated Learning
Yavuz Faruk Bakman, Duygu Nur Yaldiz, Yahya H. Ezzeldin +1
Federated Learning (FL) has gained significant attraction due to its ability to enable privacy-preserving training over decentralized data. Current literature in FL mostly focuses…
