LIFT: A Novel Framework for Enhancing Long-Context Understanding of LLMs via Long Input Fine-Tuning

Yansheng Mao, Yufei Xu, Jiaqi Li +5

Long-context understanding remains challenging for LLMs due to limited context windows. This paper introduces Long Input Fine-Tuning (LIFT), a framework that improves the long-cont…

$OneMillion-Bench: How Far are Language Agents from Human Experts?

Qianyu Yang, Yang Liu, Jiaqi Li +19

As language models (LMs) evolve from chat assistants to long-horizon agents capable of multi-step reasoning and tool use, existing benchmarks remain largely confined to structured…

RuleReasoner: Reinforced Rule-based Reasoning via Domain-aware Dynamic Sampling

Yang Liu, Jiaqi Li, Zilong Zheng

Rule-based reasoning is acknowledged as one of the fundamental problems of reasoning. While recent studies show that large reasoning models (LRMs) have remarkable reasoning capabil…
