TACT: Mitigating Overthinking and Overacting in Coding Agents via Activation Steering

Yuan Sui, Yulin Chen, Yibo Li +6

When language model agents tackle complex software engineering tasks, they often degrade over long trajectories, which we define as *agent drift*. We focus on two recurring failure…

How to Train Long-Context Language Models (Effectively)

Tianyu Gao, Alexander Wettig, Howard Yen +1

We study continued training and supervised fine-tuning (SFT) of a language model (LM) to make effective use of long-context information. We first establish a reliable evaluation pr…

LongProc: Benchmarking Long-Context Language Models on Long Procedural Generation

Xi Ye, Fangcong Yin, Yinghui He +5

Existing benchmarks for evaluating long-context language models (LCLMs) primarily focus on long-context recall, requiring models to produce short responses based on a few critical…

Metadata Conditioning Accelerates Language Model Pre-training

Tianyu Gao, Alexander Wettig, Luxi He +3

The vast diversity of styles, domains, and quality levels present in language model pre-training corpora is essential in developing general model capabilities, but efficiently lear…

Cache Me If You Can: How Many KVs Do You Need for Effective Long-Context LMs?

Adithya Bhaskar, Alexander Wettig, Tianyu Gao +2

Language models handle increasingly long contexts for tasks such as book summarization, but this leads to growing memory costs for the key-value (KV) cache. Many prior works have p…

HELMET: How to Evaluate Long-Context Language Models Effectively and Thoroughly

Howard Yen, Tianyu Gao, Minmin Hou +5

Many benchmarks exist for evaluating long-context language models (LCLMs), yet developers often rely on synthetic tasks such as needle-in-a-haystack (NIAH) or an arbitrary subset o…
