Revisiting Automated Prompting: Are We Actually Doing Better? (2023.acl-short)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent work demonstrates that Large Language Models are great few-shot learners, and prompting significantly increases their performance on a range of downstream tasks. |
| Approach: | They revisit techniques for automated prompting on six different downstream tasks and a larger range of K-shot learning settings. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms manual prompting on six different downstream tasks and a larger range of K-shot learning settings. |
RiOT: Efficient Prompt Refinement with Residual Optimization Tree (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for automatic prompt optimization face two challenges: lack of diversity and semantic drift. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for automatic prompt optimization that iteratively refines prompts through text gradients and selects the best prompt using perplexity. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms existing prompt optimization methods and manual prompting on commonsense, mathematical, logical, temporal, and semantic reasoning benchmarks. |
