Ensuring consistently high-quality training data is essential for developing reliable machine learning systems. Recent research demonstrates that incorporating human supervision into training set debugging effectively improves model performance, especially for text classification tasks. However, suc
The evaluation of code-generating Large Language Models (LLMs) is fundamentally constrained by two intertwined challenges: a reliance on static, easily contaminated problem sources and the use of superficial, low-rigor testing. This paper introduces a new benchmark construction philosophy, Dual Scal…
Combining predictions from heterogeneous classifiers—such as in-house deep learning models, human experts, and large language models (LLMs)—is a key challenge, especially in data-scarce environments such as humanitarian operations. We propose a flexible Bayesian framework to effectively fuse these d
LLM Ensemble---which involves the comprehensive use of multiple large language models (LLMs), each aimed at handling user queries during downstream inference, to benefit from their individual strengths---has gained substantial attention recently. The widespread availability of LLMs, coupled with the
Backdoor attacks pose a significant threat to deep neural networks (DNNs), as attackers can inject a backdoor by tampering with only a few samples. The variety of backdoor attacks makes comprehensive defense extremely challenging. Previous defenses typically assume that backdoor samples are out-of-d…
Model merging based on task vectors, i.e., the parameter differences between fine-tuned models and a shared base model, provides an efficient way to integrate multiple task-specific models into a multitask model without retraining. Recent works have endeavored to address the conflicts between task v…
Mobile task automation is an emerging technology that leverages AI to automatically execute routine tasks by users’ commands on mobile devices like Android, thus enhancing efficiency and productivity. While large language models (LLMs) excel at general mobile tasks through training on massive datase
Understanding the vulnerability of label aggregation against data poisoning attacks is key to ensuring data quality in crowdsourced label collection. State-of-the-art attack mechanisms generally assume full knowledge of the aggregation models while failing to consider the flexibility of malicious wo…
Learning from Crowds (LFC) seeks to induce a high-quality classifier from training instances, which are linked to a range of possible noisy annotations from crowdsourcing workers under their various levels of skills and their own preconditions. Recent studies on LFC focus on designing new methods to…
Teaching humans is an important topic under the umbrella of machine teaching, and its core problem is to design an algorithm for selecting teaching examples. Existing work typically regards humans as passive learners, where an ordered set of teaching examples are generated and fed to learners sequen…
End-to-end learning from crowds has recently been introduced as an EM-free approach to training deep neural networks directly from noisy crowdsourced annotations. It models the relationship between true labels and annotations with a specific type of neural layer, termed as the crowd layer, which can…
