Controlling Equational Reasoning in Large Language Models with Prompt Interventions

AAAI 2025technical

This paper investigates how hallucination rates in Large Language Models (LLMs) may be controlled via a symbolic data generation framework, exploring a fundamental relationship between the rate of certain mathematical errors and types of input intervention. Specifically, we systematically generate d…

A Symbolic Framework for Evaluating Mathematical Reasoning and Generalisation with Transformers

NAACL 2024long

This paper proposes a methodology for generating and perturbing detailed derivations of equations at scale, aided by a symbolic engine, to evaluate the generalisability of Transformers to out-of-distribution mathematical reasoning problems. Instantiating the framework in the context of sequence clas…

Exploring the Limits of Fine-grained LLM-based Physics Inference via Premise Removal Interventions

EMNLP 2024finding

Language models (LMs) can hallucinate when performing complex mathematical reasoning. Physics provides a rich domain for assessing their mathematical capabilities, where physical context requires that any symbolic manipulation satisfies complex semantics (e.g., units, tensorial order). In this work,…

Multi-Operational Mathematical Derivations in Latent Space

NAACL 2024long

This paper investigates the possibility of approximating multiple mathematical operations in latent space for expression derivation. To this end, we introduce different multi-operational representation paradigms, modelling mathematical operations as explicit geometric transformations. By leveraging…
