Mitigating Forgetting in LLM Supervised Fine-Tuning and Preference Learning

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Heshan Fernando, Han Shen, Parikshit Ram, Yi Zhou, Horst Samulowitz | Summary: Post-training of pre-trained LLMs, which typically consists of the supervised fine-tuning (SFT) stage and the preference learning (RLHF or DPO) stage, is crucial to effective and safe LLM applications. The widely adopted approach in post-training […]

Independently-Normalized SGD for Generalized-Smooth Nonconvex Optimization

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Yufeng Yang, Erin Tripp, Yifan Sun, Shaofeng Zou, Yi Zhou | Summary: Recent studies have shown that many nonconvex machine learning problems meet a so-called generalized-smooth condition that extends beyond traditional smooth nonconvex optimization. However, the existing algorithms designed for generalized-smooth nonconvex optimization encounter significant limitations in […]

Physical Space Proof of Bilinear Estimates and Applications to Nonlinear Dispersive Equations

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Li Tu, Yi Zhou, , , | Summary: We give a simpler proof for the local well-posedness of the modified Korteweg-de Vries equations and modified Benjamin-Ono equation in $H^{frac{1}{4}}(mathbb{R})$ and $H^{frac{1}{2}}(mathbb{R})$, respectively. The proof is based on the Strichartz estimate, dyadic decomposition and a bilinear estimate given […]
