Weak-to-Strong On-Policy Distillation

Fangxu Yu, Weijia Xu, Michael Xu +2

On-policy distillation (OPD), which aligns a student with the teacher's token-level distribution on the student's own rollouts, is an effective paradigm for transferring capabiliti…

Vision-Zero: Scalable VLM Self-Improvement via Strategic Gamified Self-Play

Qinsi Wang, Bo Liu, Tianyi Zhou +6

Although reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising approach for improving vision-language models (VLMs) and multimodal large language models (MLLMs), current methods r…

Can LLMs Detect Their Confabulations? Estimating Reliability in Uncertainty-Aware Language Models

Tianyi Zhou, Johanne Medina, Sanjay Chawla

Large Language Models (LLMs) are prone to generating fluent but incorrect content, known as confabulation, which poses increasing risks in multi-turn or agentic applications where…

Where to show Demos in Your Prompt: A Positional Bias of In-Context Learning

Kwesi Cobbina, Tianyi Zhou

In-context learning (ICL) is a critical emerging capability of large language models (LLMs), enabling few-shot learning during inference by including a few demonstrations (demos) i…
