OpenThoughts: Data Recipes for Reasoning Models

ICLR 2026oral

Reasoning models have made rapid progress on many benchmarks involving math, code, and science. Yet, there are still many open questions about the best train- ing recipes for reasoning since state-of-the-art models often rely on proprietary datasets with little to no public information available. To…

Aligning Large Language Models with Recommendation Knowledge

NAACL 2024findings

Large language models (LLMs) have recently been used as backbones for recommender systems. However, their performance often lags behind conventional methods in standard tasks like retrieval. We attribute this to a mismatch between LLMs’ knowledge and the knowledge crucial for effective recommendatio…

Recommender Systems with Generative Retrieval

NeurIPS 2023poster

Modern recommender systems perform large-scale retrieval by embedding queries and item candidates in the same unified space, followed by approximate nearest neighbor search to select top candidates given a query embedding. In this paper, we propose a novel generative retrieval approach, where the re…

DSelect-k: Differentiable Selection in the Mixture of Experts with Applications to Multi-Task Learning

NeurIPS 2021poster

The Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture is showing promising results in improving parameter sharing in multi-task learning (MTL) and in scaling high-capacity neural networks. State-of-the-art MoE models use a trainable "sparse gate'" to select a subset of the experts for each input example. While…
