Example-based guidance is widely used to improve mathematical reasoning at inference time, yet its effectiveness is highly unstable across problems and models—even when the guidance is correct and problem-relevant. We show that this instability arises from a previously underexplored gap between *str…
This paper aims to efficiently enable large language models (LLMs) to use external knowledge and goal guidance in conversational recommender system (CRS) tasks. Advanced LLMs (e.g., ChatGPT) are limited in domain-specific CRS tasks for 1) generating grounded responses with recommendation-oriented kn…
This paper presents a novel hallucination detection method based on the internal states and output probabilities of large language models (LLMs) to address the common issue of hallucinations in model-generated content. We designed a new detection framework that extracts internal features such as hid…
In the design of microrobots, a helical geometry is pivotal to overcome the time-reversal constraints of the scallop theorem. The helical geometry enables the microrobots to propel themselves forward in viscous fluids with a corkscrew like motion when they are allowed to rotate. It is physically adv
Previous zero-shot dialogue state tracking (DST) methods only apply transfer learning, but ignore unlabelled data in the target domain.We transform zero-shot DST into few-shot DST by utilising such unlabelled data via joint and self-training methods. Our method incorporates auxiliary tasks that gene…
Integrating CNNs and RNNs to capture spatiotemporal dependencies is a prevalent strategy for spatiotemporal prediction tasks. However, the property of CNNs to learn local spatial information decreases their efficiency in capturing spatiotemporal dependencies, thereby limiting their prediction accura…
