General Preference Reinforcement Learning
Muhammad Umer, Muhammad Ahmed Mohsin, Ahsan Bilal +5
Post-training has split large language model (LLM) alignment into two largely disconnected tracks. Online reinforcement learning (RL) with verifiable rewards drives emergent reason…
Improving Latent Generalization Using Test-time Compute
Arslan Chaudhry, Sridhar Thiagarajan, Andrew Lampinen
Language Models (LMs) exhibit two distinct mechanisms for knowledge acquisition: in-weights learning (i.e., encoding information within the model weights) and in-context learning (…
Latent learning: episodic memory complements parametric learning by enabling flexible reuse of experiences
Andrew Kyle Lampinen, Martin Engelcke, Yuxuan Li +2
When do machine learning systems fail to generalize, and what mechanisms could improve their generalization? Here, we draw inspiration from cognitive science to argue that one weak…
A Comparative Analysis of LLM Adaptation: SFT, LoRA, and ICL in Data-Scarce Scenarios
Bernd Bohnet, Rumen Dangovski, Kevin Swersky +4
The remarkable capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) often need to be tailored for specific applications, requiring the integration of new knowledge or the acquisition of ne…
