Reflective Prompt Tuning through Language Model Function-Calling

Farima Fatahi Bayat, Moin Aminnaseri, Pouya Pezeshkpour +1

Large language models (LLMs) have become increasingly capable of following instructions and complex reasoning, making prompting a flexible interface for adapting models without par…

Geometry-Aware Decoding with Wasserstein-Regularized Truncation and Mass Penalties for Large Language Models

Arash Gholami Davoodi, Navid Rezazadeh, Seyed Pouyan Mousavi Davoudi +1

Large language models (LLMs) must balance diversity and creativity against logical coherence in open-ended generation. Existing truncation-based samplers are effective but largely…

AutoPyVerifier: Learning Compact Executable Verifiers for Large Language Model Outputs

Pouya Pezeshkpour, Estevam Hruschka

Verification is becoming central to both reinforcement-learning-based training and inference-time control of large language models (LLMs). Yet current verifiers face a fundamental…

From Proof to Program: Characterizing Tool-Induced Reasoning Hallucinations in Large Language Models

Farima Fatahi Bayat, Pouya Pezeshkpour, Estevam Hruschka

Tool-augmented Language Models (TaLMs) can invoke external tools to solve problems beyond their parametric capacity. However, it remains unclear whether these tool-enabled gains re…

Blue Data Intelligence Layer: Streaming Data and Agents for Multi-source Multi-modal Data-Centric Applications

Moin Aminnaseri, Farima Fatahi Bayat, Nikita Bhutani +17

NL2SQL systems aim to address the growing need for natural language interaction with data. However, real-world information rarely maps to a single SQL query because (1) users expre…

Align then Train: Efficient Retrieval Adapter Learning

Seiji Maekawa, Moin Aminnaseri, Pouya Pezeshkpour +1

Dense retrieval systems increasingly need to handle complex queries. In many realistic settings, users express intent through long instructions or task-specific descriptions, while…
