Metric Match: A Subset Selection Approach to Evaluating LLM Judge Reliability
Alyssa Unell, Natalie Dullerud, Naomi Boneh +4
LLM judges are used to reduce the need for costly human labor in evaluating open-ended text generation. However, the reliability of these judges depends critically on their alignme…
Scaling Self-Play with Self-Guidance
Luke Bailey, Kaiyue Wen, Kefan Dong +2
LLM self-play algorithms are notable in that, in principle, nothing bounds their learning: a Conjecturer model creates problems for a Solver, and both improve together. However, in…
Synthetic Data for any Differentiable Target
Tristan Thrush, Sung Min Park, Herman Brunborg +5
What are the limits of controlling language models via synthetic training data? We develop a reinforcement learning (RL) primitive, the Dataset Policy Gradient (DPG), which can pre…
Data-efficient pre-training by scaling synthetic megadocs
Konwoo Kim, Suhas Kotha, Yejin Choi +3
Synthetic data augmentation has emerged as a promising solution when pre-training is constrained by data rather than compute. We study how to design synthetic data algorithms that…
Agentic Adversarial QA for Improving Domain-Specific LLMs
Vincent Grari, Ciprian Tomoiaga, Sylvain Lamprier +2
Large Language Models (LLMs), despite extensive pretraining on broad internet corpora, often struggle to adapt effectively to specialized domains. There is growing interest in fine…
Synthetic bootstrapped pretraining
Zitong Yang, Aonan Zhang, Hong Liu +4
We introduce Synthetic Bootstrapped Pretraining (SBP), a language model (LM) pretraining procedure that first learns a model of relations between documents from the pretraining dat…
