• LLM2CLIP: Powerful Language Model Unlocks Richer Cross-Modality Representation \ CLIP is a seminal multimodal model that maps images and text into a shared representation space through contrastive learning on billions of image-caption pairs. Inspired by the rapid progress of large language models (LLMs), we investigate… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 15:18
• Document Reconstruction Unlocks Scalable Long-Context RLVR \ Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards~(RLVR) has become a prominent paradigm to enhance the capabilities (i.e. long-context) of Large Language Models~(LLMs). However, it often relies on gold-standard answers or explicit evaluatio… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 10:07
• DySCO: Dynamic Attention-Scaling Decoding for Long-Context LMs \ Understanding and reasoning over long contexts is a crucial capability for language models (LMs). Although recent models support increasingly long context windows, their accuracy often deteriorates as input length grows. In practice, model… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 19:21
• Beyond RAG for Agent Memory: Retrieval by Decoupling and Aggregation \ Agent memory systems often adopt the standard Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline, yet its underlying assumptions differ in this setting. RAG targets large, heterogeneous corpora where retrieved passages are diverse, whereas agen… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 16:14
• Multi-Head RAG: Solving Multi-Aspect Problems with LLMs \ Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) improves Large Language Models (LLMs) by retrieving supporting documents into the prompt, but existing methods do not explicitly target queries that require fetching multiple documents with substantiall… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 15:28
• Prompt Architecture Determines Reasoning Quality: A Variable Isolation Study on the Car Wash Problem \ Large language models consistently fail the "car wash problem," a viral reasoning benchmark requiring implicit physical constraint inference. We present a variable isolation study (n=20 per condition, 6 conditions, 120 total trials) examin… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 12:40
• Toward Safe and Human-Aligned Game Conversational Recommendation via Multi-Agent Decomposition \ Conversational recommender systems (CRS) have advanced with large language models, showing strong results in domains like movies. These domains typically involve fixed content and passive consumption, where user preferences can be matched … \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 10:37
• Annotation-Efficient Universal Honesty Alignment \ Honesty alignment-the ability of large language models (LLMs) to recognize their knowledge boundaries and express calibrated confidence-is essential for trustworthy deployment. Existing methods either rely on training-free confidence estim… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 10:08
• RPTS: Tree-Structured Reasoning Process Scoring for Faithful Multimodal Evaluation \ Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) excel in multimodal reasoning and have shown impressive performance on various multimodal benchmarks. However, most of these benchmarks evaluate models primarily through multiple-choice or short-answer … \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 09:56
• Capabilities Ain't All You Need: Measuring Propensities in AI \ AI evaluation has primarily focused on measuring capabilities, with formal approaches inspired from Item Response Theory (IRT) being increasingly applied. Yet propensities - the tendencies of models to exhibit particular behaviours - play … \ Source • arXiv cs.LG • 19:12
• Enhancing LLM-Based Test Generation by Eliminating Covered Code \ Automated test generation is essential for software quality assurance, with coverage rate serving as a key metric to ensure thorough testing. Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown promise in improving test generati… \ Source • arXiv cs.LG • 16:16
