What's in a Name? Morphological Shortcuts by LLMs in Pharmacology

Kaijie Mo, Thomas Yang, Chantal Shaib +6

The morphological form of a word can often give cues to its meaning, but purely relying on these mappings can lead to overgeneralization in high-stakes domains. In the medical doma…

Brittlebench: Quantifying LLM robustness via prompt sensitivity

Angelika Romanou, Mark Ibrahim, Candace Ross +8

Existing evaluation methods largely rely on clean, static benchmarks, which can overestimate true model performance by failing to capture the noise and variability inherent in real…

The Llama 4 Herd: Architecture, Training, Evaluation, and Deployment Notes

Redacted by arXiv

This document consolidates publicly reported technical details about Metas Llama 4 model family. It summarizes (i) released variants (Scout and Maverick) and the broader herd conte…

Faithfulness vs. Safety: Evaluating LLM Behavior Under Counterfactual Medical Evidence

Kaijie Mo, Siddhartha Venkatayogi, Chantal Shaib +4

In high-stakes domains like medicine, it may be generally desirable for models to faithfully adhere to the context provided. But what happens if the context does not align with mod…

Learning the Wrong Lessons: Syntactic-Domain Spurious Correlations in Language Models

Chantal Shaib, Vinith M. Suriyakumar, Levent Sagun +2

For an LLM to correctly respond to an instruction it must understand both the semantics and the domain (i.e., subject area) of a given task-instruction pair. However, syntax can al…

Measuring AI "Slop" in Text

Chantal Shaib, Tuhin Chakrabarty, Diego Garcia-Olano +1

AI "slop" is an increasingly popular term used to describe low-quality AI-generated text, but there is currently no agreed upon definition of this term nor a means to measure its o…

Measuring Lexical Diversity of Synthetic Data Generated through Fine-Grained Persona Prompting

Gauri Kambhatla, Chantal Shaib, Venkata Govindarajan

Fine-grained personas have recently been used for generating 'diverse' synthetic data for pre-training and supervised fine-tuning of Large Language Models (LLMs). In this work, we…

Who Taught You That? Tracing Teachers in Model Distillation

Somin Wadhwa, Chantal Shaib, Silvio Amir +1

Model distillation -- using outputs from a large teacher model to teach a small student model -- is a practical means of creating efficient models for a particular task. We ask: Ca…

Detection and Measurement of Syntactic Templates in Generated Text

Chantal Shaib, Yanai Elazar, Junyi Jessy Li +1

Recent work on evaluating the diversity of text generated by LLMs has focused on word-level features. Here we offer an analysis of syntactic features to characterize general repeti…

Standardizing the Measurement of Text Diversity: A Tool and a Comparative Analysis of Scores

Chantal Shaib, Venkata S. Govindarajan, Joe Barrow +4

The diversity across outputs generated by LLMs shapes perception of their quality and utility. High lexical diversity is often desirable, but there is no standard method to measure…

How Much Annotation is Needed to Compare Summarization Models?

Chantal Shaib, Joe Barrow, Alexa F. Siu +2

Modern instruction-tuned models have become highly capable in text generation tasks such as summarization, and are expected to be released at a steady pace. In practice one may now…

Evaluating the Zero-shot Robustness of Instruction-tuned Language Models

Jiuding Sun, Chantal Shaib, Byron C. Wallace

Instruction fine-tuning has recently emerged as a promising approach for improving the zero-shot capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) on new tasks. This technique has shown…

Summarizing, Simplifying, and Synthesizing Medical Evidence Using GPT-3 (with Varying Success)

Chantal Shaib, Millicent L. Li, Sebastian Joseph +3

Large language models, particularly GPT-3, are able to produce high quality summaries of general domain news articles in few- and zero-shot settings. However, it is unclear if such…
