Divide-Then-Aggregate: An Efficient Tool Learning Method via Parallel Tool Invocation

ACL 2025long

While Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities, their ability to autonomously execute complex real-world tasks remains limited. Accordingly, tool learning has emerged to enable LLMs to effectively leverage external tools to extend their capabilities. Current tool-learning par…

SDA: Simple Discrete Augmentation for Contrastive Sentence Representation Learning

COLING 2024main

Contrastive learning has recently achieved compelling performance in unsupervised sentence representation. As an essential element, data augmentation protocols, however, have not been well explored. The pioneering work SimCSE resorting to a simple dropout mechanism (viewed as continuous augmentation…

VisLingInstruct: Elevating Zero-Shot Learning in Multi-Modal Language Models with Autonomous Instruction Optimization

NAACL 2024long

This paper presents VisLingInstruct, a novel approach to advancing Multi-Modal Language Models (MMLMs) in zero-shot learning. Current MMLMs show impressive zero-shot abilities in multi-modal tasks, but their performance depends heavily on the quality of instructions. VisLingInstruct tackles this by…

What Makes Pre-trained Language Models Better Zero-shot Learners?

ACL 2023long

Current methods for prompt learning in zero-shot scenarios widely rely on a development set with sufficient human-annotated data to select the best-performing prompt template a posteriori. This is not ideal because in a real-world zero-shot scenario of practical relevance, no labelled data is availa…
