Not Worth Another Token: Marginal Value Estimation for Efficient Deep Research Agents
Harshitha Kolukuluru, Reshma Ashok, Kirat Arora +7
Long-horizon research agents solve open-ended tasks through iterative retrieval, aggregation, and synthesis, but context grows rapidly while the marginal value of additional eviden…
Efficient Tree-Structured Deep Research with Adaptive Resource Allocation
Lunyiu Nie, Nedim Lipka, Ryan A. Rossi +1
Deep research agents, which synthesize information across diverse sources, are significantly constrained by the sequential nature of reasoning. This bottleneck results in high late…
Exploring Rewriting Approaches for Different Conversational Tasks
Md Mehrab Tanjim, Ryan A. Rossi, Mike Rimer +9
Conversational assistants often require a question rewriting algorithm that leverages a subset of past interactions to provide a more meaningful (accurate) answer to the user's que…
Towards Optimal Multi-draft Speculative Decoding
Zhengmian Hu, Tong Zheng, Vignesh Viswanathan +5
Large Language Models (LLMs) have become an indispensable part of natural language processing tasks. However, autoregressive sampling has become an efficiency bottleneck. Multi-Dra…
Personalized Multimodal Large Language Models: A Survey
Junda Wu, Hanjia Lyu, Yu Xia +24
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have become increasingly important due to their state-of-the-art performance and ability to integrate multiple data modalities, such as tex…
ScaleViz: Scaling Visualization Recommendation Models on Large Data
Ghazi Shazan Ahmad, Shubham Agarwal, Subrata Mitra +4
Automated visualization recommendations (vis-rec) help users to derive crucial insights from new datasets. Typically, such automated vis-rec models first calculate a large number o…
A Framework for Fine-Tuning LLMs using Heterogeneous Feedback
Ryan Aponte, Ryan A. Rossi, Shunan Guo +5
Large language models (LLMs) have been applied to a wide range of tasks, including text summarization, web navigation, and chatbots. They have benefitted from supervised fine-tunin…
KaPQA: Knowledge-Augmented Product Question-Answering
Swetha Eppalapally, Daksh Dangi, Chaithra Bhat +8
Question-answering for domain-specific applications has recently attracted much interest due to the latest advancements in large language models (LLMs). However, accurately assessi…
