On The Effectiveness-Fluency Trade-Off In LLM Conditioning: A Systematic Study
Iuri Macocco, Pau RodrÃguez, Arno Blaas +3
Controlling the output of Large Language Models (LLMs) is a central challenge for their reliable deployment, yet a clear understanding of the involved trade-offs remains elusive. C…
Uncertainty Quantification for LLM Function-Calling
Zihuiwen Ye, Lukas Aichberger, Michael Kirchhof +5
Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed to autonomously solve real-world tasks. A key ingredient for this is the LLM Function-Calling paradigm, a widely used approac…
Attention to Mamba: A Recipe for Cross-Architecture Distillation
Abhinav Moudgil, Ningyuan Huang, Eeshan Gunesh Dhekane +3
State Space Models (SSMs) such as Mamba have become a popular alternative to Transformer models, due to their reduced memory consumption and higher throughput at generation compare…
Bias after Prompting: Persistent Discrimination in Large Language Models
Nivedha Sivakumar, Natalie Mackraz, Samira Khorshidi +4
A dangerous assumption that can be made from prior work on the bias transfer hypothesis (BTH) is that biases do not transfer from pre-trained large language models (LLMs) to adapte…
LinEAS: End-to-end Learning of Activation Steering with a Distributional Loss
Pau Rodriguez, Michal Klein, Eleonora Gualdoni +5
The growing use of generative models in daily life calls for efficient mechanisms to control their generation, to e.g., produce safe content or provide users with tools to explore…
Investigating Intersectional Bias in Large Language Models using Confidence Disparities in Coreference Resolution
Falaah Arif Khan, Nivedha Sivakumar, Yinong Oliver Wang +5
Large language models (LLMs) have achieved impressive performance, leading to their widespread adoption as decision-support tools in resource-constrained contexts like hiring and a…
