Through the Valley: Path to Effective Long CoT Training for Small Language Models (2025.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Long chain-of-thought (CoT) supervision is effective for large language models . but small models trained on limited long CoT data experience performance degradation .
Approach: They identify a phenomenon called Long CoT Degradation in small language models . long CoT data can be used to generate long chain-of-thought (CoT) responses .
Outcome: The results show that models trained on 8k long CoT examples lose up to 75% of their original performance before fine-tuning.
Towards an On-device Agent for Text Rewriting (2024.findings-naacl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities for text rewriting, however creating a smaller yet potent language model presents two formidable challenges: costly data collection and absence of emergent capabilities.
Approach: They propose a new instruction tuning method to develop a mo-bile text rewriting model that leverages LLM-generated data and heuristic reinforcement learning, eliminating the need for human data collection.
Outcome: The proposed model surpasses the current state-of-the-art LLMs in text rewriting while maintaining a significantly reduced model size using public benchmark EditEval and our new benchmark.
OlympiadBench: A Challenging Benchmark for Promoting AGI with Olympiad-Level Bilingual Multimodal Scientific Problems (2024.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Multimodal Models have exceeded general human capabilities in various tasks.
Approach: They present an Olympiad-level bilingual multimodal scientific benchmark featuring 8,476 problems from Olympiad level mathematics and physics competitions.
Outcome: The best performing model, GPT-4V, attains an average score of 17.97% on OlympiadBench, with a mere 10.74% in physics, highlighting the benchmark rigor and the intricacy of physical reasoning.
OpenResearcher: Unleashing AI for Accelerated Scientific Research (2024.emnlp-demo)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Global scientific publications are growing annually by about 4%-5% (Pinedo et al., 2024).
Approach: They introduce an AI-assisted platform that answers diverse questions from researchers using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) they develop various tools to understand queries, search from the scientific literature, filter retrieved information, provide accurate and comprehensive answers, and self-refine answers.
Outcome: OpenResearcher is built on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to integrate Large Language Models (LLMs) with up-to-date, domain-specific knowledge.
UltraEval: A Lightweight Platform for Flexible and Comprehensive Evaluation for LLMs (2024.acl-demos)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing evaluation platforms are complex and poorly modularized, hindering seamless incorporation into researcher’s workflows.
Approach: They propose a lightweight evaluation framework characterized by lightweight, comprehensiveness, modularity, and efficiency that integrates models, data, and metrics into a unified evaluation workflow.
Outcome: The proposed evaluation framework is lightweight, comprehensive, modular, and efficient.
