WUGNECTIVES: Novel Entity Inferences of Language Models from Discourse Connectives

The role of world knowledge has been particularly crucial to predict the discourse connective that marks the discourse relation between two arguments, with language models (LMs) being generally succes...

⚛️ Introducing CREATE, a benchmark for creative associative reasoning in LLMs. Making novel, meaningful connections is key for scientific & creative works. We objectively measure how well LLMs can do this. 🧵👇

What is the interplay between representations learned from (language) surface forms alone, and those learned from more grounded evidence (e.g.,vision)? Excited to share new work understanding “Cross-modal taxonomic generalization” in (V)LMs arxiv.org/abs/2603.07474 1/

title section of the paper: “Cross-Modal Taxonomic Generalization in (Vision) Language Models” by Tianyang Xu, Marcelo Sandoval-Castañeda, Karen Livescu, Greg Shakhnarovich, Kanishka Misra.

Agents interact with environments to get information. But exploration (tools, retrieval, user interaction) is costly. Calibrate-Then-Act allows LLM agents to balance exploration and cost: 📐 Estimate uncertainty about the environment 💭 Reason about cost-uncertainty tradeoffs ⚙️ Act accordingly

Are you still using LoRA to fine-tune your LLM? 2024 has seen an explosion of new parameter-efficient fine tuning technique (PEFT), thanks to clever uses of the singular value decomposition (SVD). Let's dive into the alphabet soup: SVF, SVFT, MiLoRA, PiSSA, LoRA-XS 🤯...
