Leftover Lunch: Advantage-based Offline Reinforcement Learning for Language Models

ICLR 2024poster

Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF) is the most prominent method for Language Model (LM) alignment. However, RLHF is an unstable and data-hungry process that continually requires new high-quality LM-generated data for finetuning. We introduce Advantage-Leftover Lunch RL (A-LoL), a new…

NovaCOMET: Open Commonsense Foundation Models with Symbolic Knowledge Distillation

EMNLP 2023long findings

We present NovaCOMET, an open commonsense knowledge model, that combines the best aspects of knowledge and general task models. Compared to previous knowledge models, NovaCOMET allows open-format relations enabling direct application to reasoning tasks; compared to general task models like Flan-T5,…

Just Say No: Analyzing the Stance of Neural Dialogue Generation in Offensive Contexts

EMNLP 2021main

Dialogue models trained on human conversations inadvertently learn to generate toxic responses. In addition to producing explicitly offensive utterances, these models can also implicitly insult a group or individual by aligning themselves with an offensive statement. To better understand the dynamic…
