Don't Forget What You Just Learned: Self-Directed Repair Turns Agent Mistakes Into Lasting Lessons

Yuval Kansal, Karen Ullrich, Polina Kirichenko +4

Intelligent agents should learn from their mistakes so that experience leads to continuous improvement. Yet today's agents recover from a mistake only temporarily: in-context refle…

SCRuB: Social Concept Reasoning under Rubric-Based Evaluation

Jamelle Watson-Daniels, Himaghna Bhattacharjee, Skyler Wang +11

While many studies of Large Language Model (LLM) reasoning capabilities emphasize mathematical or technical tasks, few address reasoning about social concepts: the abstract ideas s…

OpenApps: Simulating Environment Variations to Measure UI-Agent Reliability

Karen Ullrich, Jingtong Su, Claudia Shi +7

Reliability is key to realizing the promise of autonomous UI-Agents, multimodal agents that directly interact with apps in the same manner as humans, as users must be able to trust…

A Single Character can Make or Break Your LLM Evals

Jingtong Su, Jianyu Zhang, Karen Ullrich +2

Common Large Language model (LLM) evaluations rely on demonstration examples to steer models' responses to the desired style. While the number of examples used has been studied and…

How Reinforcement Learning After Next-Token Prediction Facilitates Learning

Nikolaos Tsilivis, Eran Malach, Karen Ullrich +1

Recent advances in reasoning domains with neural networks have primarily been enabled by a training recipe that optimizes Large Language Models, previously trained to predict the n…

Task-Dependent Evaluation of LLM Output Homogenization: A Taxonomy-Guided Framework

Shomik Jain, Jack Lanchantin, Maximilian Nickel +4

Large language models often generate homogeneous outputs, but whether this is problematic depends on the specific task. For objective math tasks, responses may vary in terms of pro…

From Concepts to Components: Concept-Agnostic Attention Module Discovery in Transformers

Jingtong Su, Julia Kempe, Karen Ullrich

Transformers have achieved state-of-the-art performance across language and vision tasks. This success drives the imperative to interpret their internal mechanisms with the dual go…

Mission Impossible: A Statistical Perspective on Jailbreaking LLMs

Jingtong Su, Julia Kempe, Karen Ullrich

Large language models (LLMs) are trained on a deluge of text data with limited quality control. As a result, LLMs can exhibit unintended or even harmful behaviours, such as leaking…

End-To-End Causal Effect Estimation from Unstructured Natural Language Data

Nikita Dhawan, Leonardo Cotta, Karen Ullrich +2

Knowing the effect of an intervention is critical for human decision-making, but current approaches for causal effect estimation rely on manual data collection and structuring, reg…
