| Challenge: | Traditional Function Calling (FC) approaches operate statelessly, requiring multiple exploratory calls to build environmental awareness before execution, leading to inefficiency and limited error recovery. |
| Approach: | They propose a state-based function call approach that maintains explicit system state awareness and implements direct state transitions to achieve target conditions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms traditional function calling approaches, achieving superior execution accuracy and reduced latency. |
RETAIL: Towards Real-world Travel Planning for Large Language Models (2025.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing travel planning systems assume users provide explicit queries, limiting their practical utility. |
| Approach: | They propose a dataset RETAIL which supports decision-making for implicit queries while covering explicit queries. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves a 1.0% pass rate, suggesting real-world travel planning remains challenging. |
R2H: Building Multimodal Navigation Helpers that Respond to Help Requests (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing dialog-based embodied datasets are not sufficient to develop intelligent navigation-helper agents capable of navigating users in unfamiliar areas. |
| Approach: | They introduce a novel benchmark, Respond to Help Requests, to promote the development of multi-modal navigation helpers capable of responding to requests for help . they also propose two approaches to construct the navigation-helper agent, including fine-tuning a task-oriented multi-mod response generation model that can see and respond, named SeeRee, and employing . a multi-module large language model in a zero-shot manner. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms the baseline model and the proposed model on two tasks based on human evaluations and automatic benchmarking. |
