Demystifying Group Relative Policy Optimization: Its Policy Gradient is a U-Statistic

Hongyi Zhou, Kai Ye, Erhan Xu +4

Group relative policy optimization (GRPO), a core methodological component of DeepSeekMath and DeepSeek-R1, has emerged as a cornerstone for scaling reasoning capabilities of large…

Learn-to-Distance: Distance Learning for Detecting LLM-Generated Text

Hongyi Zhou, Jin Zhu, Kai Ye +3

Modern large language models (LLMs) such as GPT, Claude, and Gemini have transformed the way we learn, work, and communicate. Yet, their ability to produce highly human-like text r…

A Difference-in-Difference Approach to Detecting AI-Generated Images

Xinyi Qi, Kai Ye, Chengchun Shi +3

Diffusion models are able to produce AI-generated images that are almost indistinguishable from real ones. This raises concerns about their potential misuse and poses substantial c…

AdaDetectGPT: Adaptive Detection of LLM-Generated Text with Statistical Guarantees

Hongyi Zhou, Jin Zhu, Pingfan Su +4

We study the problem of determining whether a piece of text has been authored by a human or by a large language model (LLM). Existing state of the art logits-based detectors make u…

Detecting LLM-Generated Text with Performance Guarantees

Hongyi Zhou, Jin Zhu, Ying Yang +1

Large language models (LLMs) such as GPT, Claude, Gemini, and Grok have been deeply integrated into our daily life. They now support a wide range of tasks -- from dialogue and emai…

Leave No TRACE: Black-box Detection of Copyrighted Dataset Usage in Large Language Models via Watermarking

Jingqi Zhang, Ruibo Chen, Yingqing Yang +3

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly fine-tuned on smaller, domain-specific datasets to improve downstream performance. These datasets often contain proprietary or copyrig…
