Sparse RL Relaxation for LLM Reasoning

Jiabin Fan, Matthias Lindemann, Zita Marinho +2

Recent work has explored continuous representations in place of discrete tokens during Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, often referred to as soft CoT. This is motivated by the ide…

Native Hierarchical and Compositional Representations with Subspace Embeddings

Gabriel Moreira, Zita Marinho, Manuel Marques +2

Traditional embeddings represent datapoints as vectors, which makes similarity easy to compute but limits how well they capture hierarchies and compositionality. We propose a funda…

AuPair: Golden Example Pairs for Code Repair

Aditi Mavalankar, Hassan Mansoor, Zita Marinho +2

Scaling up inference-time compute has proven to be a valuable strategy in improving the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) without fine-tuning. An important task that can…

Chunk-based Nearest Neighbor Machine Translation

Pedro Henrique Martins, Zita Marinho, André F. T. Martins

Semi-parametric models, which augment generation with retrieval, have led to impressive results in language modeling and machine translation, due to their ability to retrieve fine-…

Efficient Machine Translation Domain Adaptation

Pedro Henrique Martins, Zita Marinho, André F. T. Martins

Machine translation models struggle when translating out-of-domain text, which makes domain adaptation a topic of critical importance. However, most domain adaptation methods focus…

Model-Value Inconsistency as a Signal for Epistemic Uncertainty

Angelos Filos, Eszter Vértes, Zita Marinho +7

Using a model of the environment and a value function, an agent can construct many estimates of a state's value, by unrolling the model for different lengths and bootstrapping with…

Self-Consistent Models and Values

Gregory Farquhar, Kate Baumli, Zita Marinho +4

Learned models of the environment provide reinforcement learning (RL) agents with flexible ways of making predictions about the environment. In particular, models enable planning,…

-former: Infinite Memory Transformer

Pedro Henrique Martins, Zita Marinho, André F. T. Martins

Transformers are unable to model long-term memories effectively, since the amount of computation they need to perform grows with the context length. While variations of efficient t…

Priberam at MESINESP Multi-label Classification of Medical Texts Task

Ruben Cardoso, Zita Marinho, Afonso Mendes +1

Medical articles provide current state of the art treatments and diagnostics to many medical practitioners and professionals. Existing public databases such as MEDLINE contain over…

Sparse Text Generation

Pedro Henrique Martins, Zita Marinho, André F. T. Martins

Current state-of-the-art text generators build on powerful language models such as GPT-2, achieving impressive performance. However, to avoid degenerate text, they require sampling…

Sparse and Structured Visual Attention

Pedro Henrique Martins, Vlad Niculae, Zita Marinho +1

Visual attention mechanisms are widely used in multimodal tasks, as visual question answering (VQA). One drawback of softmax-based attention mechanisms is that they assign some pro…

Joint Learning of Named Entity Recognition and Entity Linking

Pedro Henrique Martins, Zita Marinho, André F. T. Martins

Named entity recognition (NER) and entity linking (EL) are two fundamentally related tasks, since in order to perform EL, first the mentions to entities have to be detected. Howeve…

Jointly Extracting and Compressing Documents with Summary State Representations

Afonso Mendes, Shashi Narayan, Sebastião Miranda +3

We present a new neural model for text summarization that first extracts sentences from a document and then compresses them. The proposed model offers a balance that sidesteps the…
