Synthetic data has become a common component of machine learning research. While widely adopted, its use in privacy-sensitive contexts has quietly shifted from a claim of residual inference risk under stated assumptions to an appearance-based property inferred from data generation itself. In this po…
Posts containing multiple images have significant research potential in Multimodal Named Entity Recognition nowadays. The previous methods determine whether the images are related to named entities in the text through similarity computation, such as using CLIP. However, it is not effective in some c…
LLMs are trained to refuse harmful instructions, but do they truly understand harmfulness beyond just refusing? Prior work has shown that LLMs’ refusal behaviors can be mediated by a one-dimensional subspace, i.e., a refusal direction. In this work, we identify a new dimension to analyze safety mech…
In this work, we study in-context teaching(ICT), where a teacher provides in-context example rationales to teach a student to reasonover unseen cases. Human teachers are usually required to craft in-context demonstrations, which are costly and have high variance. We ask whether a large language mode…
As the number of large language models (LLMs) released to the public grows, there is a pressing need to understand the safety implications associated with these models learning from third-party custom finetuning data. We explore the behavior of LLMs finetuned on noisy custom data containing unsafe c…
We study semi-supervised sequence generation tasks, where the few labeled examples are too scarce to finetune a model, and meanwhile, few-shot prompted large language models (LLMs) exhibit room for improvement. In this paper, we present the discovery that a student model distilled from a few-shot pr…
This paper presents Triangulation Residual loss (TR loss) for multiview 3D pose estimation in a data-efficient manner. Existing 3D supervised models usually require large-scale 3D annotated datasets, but the amount of existing data is still insufficient to train supervised models to achieve ideal pe…
