LLM-Evolve: Evaluation for LLM’s Evolving Capability on Benchmarks (2024.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing benchmarks for large language models evaluate LLMs on i.i.d. tasks, overlooking their ability to learn iteratively from past experiences. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework which extends established benchmarks to sequential problem-solving settings and provides feedback after each round to build a demonstration memory that the models can query in future tasks. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework can improve performance of LLMs by learning from past interactions and improve models' performance over time. |
