MemComposer: Learning to Assemble Memories for LLM Agents via Reinforcement Learning

Yixuan Xie, Xueqiang Xu, Xinyi Fan +8

Agent memory enables large language model (LLM) agents to reuse past experiences without updating their parameters. However, semantic similarity alone does not guarantee memory use…

DS SERVE: A Framework for Efficient and Scalable Neural Retrieval

Jinjian Liu, Yichuan Wang, Xinxi Lyu +4

We present DS-Serve, a framework that transforms large-scale text datasets, comprising half a trillion tokens, into a high-performance neural retrieval system. DS-Serve offers both…

Frustratingly Simple Retrieval Improves Challenging, Reasoning-Intensive Benchmarks

Xinxi Lyu, Michael Duan, Rulin Shao +2

Retrieval-augmented Generation (RAG) has primarily been studied in limited settings, such as factoid question answering; more challenging, reasoning-intensive benchmarks have seen…

HREF: Human Response-Guided Evaluation of Instruction Following in Language Models

Xinxi Lyu, Yizhong Wang, Hannaneh Hajishirzi +1

Evaluating the capability of Large Language Models (LLMs) in following instructions has heavily relied on a powerful LLM as the judge, introducing unresolved biases that deviate th…

Tulu 3: Pushing Frontiers in Open Language Model Post-Training

Nathan Lambert, Jacob Morrison, Valentina Pyatkin +20

Language model post-training is applied to refine behaviors and unlock new skills across a wide range of recent language models, but open recipes for applying these techniques lag…

Dolma: an Open Corpus of Three Trillion Tokens for Language Model Pretraining Research

Luca Soldaini, Rodney Kinney, Akshita Bhagia +33

Information about pretraining corpora used to train the current best-performing language models is seldom discussed: commercial models rarely detail their data, and even open model…

FActScore: Fine-grained Atomic Evaluation of Factual Precision in Long Form Text Generation

Sewon Min, Kalpesh Krishna, Xinxi Lyu +6

Evaluating the factuality of long-form text generated by large language models (LMs) is non-trivial because (1) generations often contain a mixture of supported and unsupported pie…

Z-ICL: Zero-Shot In-Context Learning with Pseudo-Demonstrations

Xinxi Lyu, Sewon Min, Iz Beltagy +2

Although large language models can be prompted for both zero- and few-shot learning, performance drops significantly when no demonstrations are available. In this paper, we introdu…

Rethinking the Role of Demonstrations: What Makes In-Context Learning Work?

Sewon Min, Xinxi Lyu, Ari Holtzman +4

Large language models (LMs) are able to in-context learn -- perform a new task via inference alone by conditioning on a few input-label pairs (demonstrations) and making prediction…

Prompt Waywardness: The Curious Case of Discretized Interpretation of Continuous Prompts

Daniel Khashabi, Shane Lyu, Sewon Min +8

Fine-tuning continuous prompts for target tasks has recently emerged as a compact alternative to full model fine-tuning. Motivated by these promising results, we investigate the fe…
