The Missing Piece in Pre-trained Model Evaluation: Reward-Guided Decoding Unlocks Task-Oriented Behavior Without Parameter Updates

Shaobo Wang, Guo Chen, Ziyue Wang +5

With the rapid progress of large language models (LLMs), reliably evaluating the capabilities of pre-trained LLMs has become increasingly important. The challenge is that base pre-…

MNAFT: modality neuron-aware fine-tuning of multimodal large language models for image translation

Bo Li, Ningyuan Deng, Tianyu Dong +3

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown impressive capabilities, yet they often struggle to effectively capture the fine-grained textual information within images cruci…

OPUS: Towards Efficient and Principled Data Selection in Large Language Model Pre-training in Every Iteration

Shaobo Wang, Xuan Ouyang, Tianyi Xu +9

As high-quality public text approaches exhaustion, a phenomenon known as the Data Wall, pre-training is shifting from more tokens to better tokens. However, existing methods either…

Winning the Pruning Gamble: A Unified Approach to Joint Sample and Token Pruning for Efficient Supervised Fine-Tuning

Shaobo Wang, Jiaming Wang, Jiajun Zhang +9

As supervised fine-tuning (SFT) evolves from a lightweight post-training step into a compute-intensive phase rivaling mid-training in scale, data efficiency has become critical for…

Diffusion LLM with Native Variable Generation Lengths: Let [EOS] Lead the Way

Yicun Yang, Cong Wang, Shaobo Wang +4

Diffusion-based large language models (dLLMs) have exhibited substantial potential for parallel text generation, which may enable more efficient generation compared to autoregressi…

Rethinking LLM Evaluation: Can We Evaluate LLMs with 200x Less Data?

Shaobo Wang, Cong Wang, Wenjie Fu +11

As the demand for comprehensive evaluations of diverse model capabilities steadily increases, benchmark suites have correspondingly grown significantly in scale. Despite notable ad…
