Towards Mechanistically Understanding Why Memorized Knowledge Fails to Generalize in Large Language Model Finetuning

Lu Dai, Ziyang Rao, Yili Wang +3

Fine-tuning LLMs to inject new knowledge faces a critical challenge: LLMs can quickly memorize new facts, yet fail to use them for downstream reasoning tasks. We formalize this fai…

LLM-Oriented Information Retrieval: A Denoising-First Perspective

Lu Dai, Liang Sun, Fanpu Cao +4

Modern information retrieval (IR) is no longer consumed primarily by humans but increasingly by large language models (LLMs) via retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and agentic se…

SePer: Measure Retrieval Utility Through The Lens Of Semantic Perplexity Reduction

Lu Dai, Yijie Xu, Jinhui Ye +2

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated improved generation performance by incorporating externally retrieved knowledge, a process known as retrieval-augmented generation (R…

Cloth2Body: Generating 3D Human Body Mesh from 2D Clothing

Lu Dai, Liqian Ma, Shenhan Qian +3

In this paper, we define and study a new Cloth2Body problem which has a goal of generating 3D human body meshes from a 2D clothing image. Unlike the existing human mesh recovery pr…
