Exposing Weaknesses of Large Reasoning Models through Graph Algorithm Problems

ICLR 2026poster

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) have advanced rapidly, yet existing benchmarks on mathematics, code, and common-sense reasoning remain limited: they lack long-context evaluation, offer insufficient challenge, and provide answers that are difficult to verify programmatically. We introduce GrAlgoBench,…

Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning via Circular Convolution

ACL 2025finding

Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has gained popularity for fine-tuning large foundation models, leveraging low-rank matrices \mathbf A and \mathbf B to represent weight changes (i.e., 𝛥 \mathbf W = \mathbf B \mathbf A). This method reduces trainable parameters and mitigates heavy memory consumption associ…

Revisiting LoRA through the Lens of Parameter Redundancy: Spectral Encoding Helps

ACL 2025finding

Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has emerged as a prominent technique for fine-tuning large foundation models. Despite its successes, the substantial parameter redundancy, which limits the capacity and efficiency of LoRA, has been recognized as a bottleneck. In this work, we systematically investigate the…

DeepZero: Scaling Up Zeroth-Order Optimization for Deep Model Training

ICLR 2024poster

Zeroth-order (ZO) optimization has become a popular technique for solving machine learning (ML) problems when first-order (FO) information is difficult or impossible to obtain. However, the scalability of ZO optimization remains an open problem: Its use has primarily been limited to relatively small…

GLBench: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Graph with Large Language Models

NeurIPS 2024poster

The emergence of large language models (LLMs) has revolutionized the way we interact with graphs, leading to a new paradigm called GraphLLM. Despite the rapid development of GraphLLM methods in recent years, the progress and understanding of this field remain unclear due to the lack of a benchmark w…

Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning with Discrete Fourier Transform

ICML 2024poster

Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) has recently gained much interest in fine-tuning foundation models. It effectively reduces the number of trainable parameters by incorporating low-rank matrices $A$ and $B$ to represent the weight change, i.e., $\Delta W=BA$. Despite LoRA's progress, it faces storage chall…

To Generate or Not? Safety-Driven Unlearned Diffusion Models Are Still Easy To Generate Unsafe Images ... For Now

ECCV 2024poster

"The recent advances in diffusion models (DMs) have revolutionized the generation of realistic and complex images. However, these models also introduce potential safety hazards, such as producing harmful content and infringing data copyrights. Despite the development of safety-driven unlearning tech…

Selectivity Drives Productivity: Efficient Dataset Pruning for Enhanced Transfer Learning

NeurIPS 2023poster

Massive data is often considered essential for deep learning applications, but it also incurs significant computational and infrastructural costs. Therefore, dataset pruning (DP) has emerged as an effective way to improve data efficiency by identifying and removing redundant training samples without…

Understanding and Improving Visual Prompting: A Label-Mapping Perspective

CVPR 2023poster

We revisit and advance visual prompting (VP), an input prompting technique for vision tasks. VP can reprogram a fixed, pre-trained source model to accomplish downstream tasks in the target domain by simply incorporating universal prompts (in terms of input perturbation patterns) into downstream data…
