DISCO: Distributed Long Context Scaling with Grounding-Reasoning Disaggregation
Guanzheng Chen, Viet Dac Lai, Subhojyoti Mukherjee +5
While Large Language Models (LLMs) advertise million-token context windows, reasoning quality often collapses as inputs grow -- a phenomenon termed context rot. This failure stems…
A Survey on LLM-based Conversational User Simulation
Bo Ni, Leyao Wang, Yu Wang +27
User simulation has long played a vital role in computer science due to its potential to support a wide range of applications. Language, as the primary medium of human communicatio…
Reasoning-Based Personalized Generation for Users with Sparse Data
Bo Ni, Branislav Kveton, Samyadeep Basu +14
Large Language Model (LLM) personalization holds great promise for tailoring responses by leveraging personal context and history. However, real-world users usually possess sparse…
Offline RL by Reward-Weighted Fine-Tuning for Conversation Optimization
Subhojyoti Mukherjee, Viet Dac Lai, Raghavendra Addanki +6
Offline reinforcement learning (RL) is a variant of RL where the policy is learned from a previously collected dataset of trajectories and rewards. In our work, we propose a practi…
LaMP-Cap: Personalized Figure Caption Generation With Multimodal Figure Profiles
Ho Yin 'Sam' Ng, Ting-Yao Hsu, Aashish Anantha Ramakrishnan +8
Figure captions are crucial for helping readers understand and remember a figure's key message. Many models have been developed to generate these captions, helping authors compose…
Quantitative LLM Judges
Aishwarya Sahoo, Jeevana Kruthi Karnuthala, Tushar Parmanand Budhwani +9
LLM-as-a-judge is a framework where a large language model (LLM) evaluates the output of another LLM. While LLMs excel at producing qualitative textual evaluations, they often stru…
