Harness Evolution as Learning: Approximation, Generalization, and Optimization Limits of Self-Improving Personal Agents

Zeyu Gan, Zixuan Gong, Yong Liu

As the capabilities of large language models (LLMs) continue to advance, increasing attention is turning to how to translate their abilities into useful behavior. Personal agents b…

Statistical Priors for Implicit Preferences: Decoupling Skill Selection as a Local Harness in Personal Agents

Zeyu Gan, Huayi Tang, Yong Liu

As Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities advance, locally deployed personal agents relying on API-based remote models and external skills have emerged as a novel paradigm. With t…

Why Does Reasoning Length Converge? Unveiling the Underfitting-Overfitting Trade-off in Chain-of-Thought

Zeyu Gan, Hao Yi, Yong Liu

Test-time scaling, primarily manifested through multi-step Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning via Reinforcement Learning (RL), has emerged as a pivotal paradigm for enhancing the rea…

Rethinking External Slow-Thinking: From Snowball Errors to Probability of Correct Reasoning

Zeyu Gan, Yun Liao, Yong Liu

Test-time scaling, which is also often referred to as slow-thinking, has been demonstrated to enhance multi-step reasoning in large language models (LLMs). However, despite its wid…

Towards a Theoretical Understanding of Synthetic Data in LLM Post-Training: A Reverse-Bottleneck Perspective

Zeyu Gan, Yong Liu

Synthetic data has become a pivotal resource in post-training tasks for large language models (LLMs) due to the scarcity of high-quality, specific data. While various methods have…
