ROSD: Reflective On-Policy Self-Distillation for Language Model Reasoning across Domains

Ziqi Zhao, Xinyu Ma, Liu Yang +6

On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) improves the reasoning performance of large language models (LLMs) by providing dense token-level supervision for on-policy rollouts. However, ex…

Improving Sequential Recommenders through Counterfactual Augmentation of System Exposure

Ziqi Zhao, Zhaochun Ren, Jiyuan Yang +7

In sequential recommendation (SR), system exposure refers to items that are exposed to the user. Typically, only a few of the exposed items would be interacted with by the user. Al…
