Better, Faster, Stronger: Programmatic Skill Learning Best Reduces Agent Cost
Zixi Huang, Xiheng Wang, Andrew Wang +4
Recently, the practice of augmenting LLM agent capability with skills has gained prevalence. We explore the cost effective adaptation of agents to novel domains by means of learnin…
Hell or High Water: Evaluating Agentic Recovery from External Failures
Andrew Wang, Sophia Hager, Adi Asija +2
As language model agents are applied to real world problems of increasing complexity, they will be expected to formulate plans across large search spaces. If those plans fail for r…
Learning Extrapolative Sequence Transformations from Markov Chains
Sophia Hager, Aleem Khan, Andrew Wang +1
Most successful applications of deep learning involve similar training and test conditions. However, tasks such as biological sequence design involve searching for sequences that i…
AnaloBench: Benchmarking the Identification of Abstract and Long-context Analogies
Xiao Ye, Andrew Wang, Jacob Choi +6
Humans regularly engage in analogical thinking, relating personal experiences to current situations (X is analogous to Y because of Z). Analogical thinking allows humans to solve p…
Learning to Generate Text in Arbitrary Writing Styles
Aleem Khan, Andrew Wang, Sophia Hager +1
Prior work in style-controlled text generation has focused on tasks such as emulating the style of prolific literary authors, producing formal or informal text, and mitigating toxi…
