Dataset Distillation for Offline Reinforcement Learning

Jonathan Light, Yuanzhe Liu, Ziniu Hu

Offline reinforcement learning often requires a quality dataset that we can train a policy on. However, in many situations, it is not possible to get such a dataset, nor is it easy…

Strategist: Self-improvement of LLM Decision Making via Bi-Level Tree Search

Jonathan Light, Min Cai, Weiqin Chen +5

Traditional reinforcement learning and planning typically requires vast amounts of data and training to develop effective policies. In contrast, large language models (LLMs) exhibi…

Scattered Forest Search: Smarter Code Space Exploration with LLMs

Jonathan Light, Yue Wu, Yiyou Sun +6

We frame code generation as a black-box optimization problem within the code space and demonstrate how optimization-inspired techniques can enhance inference scaling. Based on this…

PIANIST: Learning Partially Observable World Models with LLMs for Multi-Agent Decision Making

Jonathan Light, Sixue Xing, Yuanzhe Liu +7

Effective extraction of the world knowledge in LLMs for complex decision-making tasks remains a challenge. We propose a framework PIANIST for decomposing the world model into seven…

Enhancing Large Vision Language Models with Self-Training on Image Comprehension

Yihe Deng, Pan Lu, Fan Yin +6

Large vision language models (LVLMs) integrate large language models (LLMs) with pre-trained vision encoders, thereby activating the perception capability of the model to understan…

Self-Control of LLM Behaviors by Compressing Suffix Gradient into Prefix Controller

Min Cai, Yuchen Zhang, Shichang Zhang +5

We propose SelfControl, an inference-time model control method utilizing gradients to control the behavior of large language models (LLMs) without explicit human annotations. Given…
