PACEvolve++: Improving Test-time Learning for Evolutionary Search Agents
Minghao Yan, Bo Peng, Benjamin Coleman +11
Large language models have become drivers of evolutionary search, but most systems rely on a fixed, prompt-elicited policy to sample next candidates. This limits adaptation in prac…
Better and Worse with Scale: How Contextual Entrainment Diverges with Model Size
Dikshant Kukreja, Kshitij Sah, Gautam Gupta +5
Larger language models become simultaneously better and worse at handling contextual information -- better at ignoring false claims, worse at ignoring irrelevant tokens. We formali…
The Bias is in the Details: An Assessment of Cognitive Bias in LLMs
R. Alexander Knipper, Charles S. Knipper, Kaiqi Zhang +3
As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly embedded in real-world decision-making processes, it becomes crucial to examine the extent to which they exhibit cognitive biases.…
X-Guard: Multilingual Guard Agent for Content Moderation
Bibek Upadhayay, Vahid Behzadan, Ph. D
Large Language Models (LLMs) have rapidly become integral to numerous applications in critical domains where reliability is paramount. Despite significant advances in safety framew…
Seed-Free Synthetic Data Generation Framework for Instruction-Tuning LLMs: A Case Study in Thai
Parinthapat Pengpun, Can Udomcharoenchaikit, Weerayut Buaphet +1
We present a synthetic data approach for instruction-tuning large language models (LLMs) for low-resource languages in a data-efficient manner, specifically focusing on Thai. We id…
