Enhancing the capability of large language models (LLMs) in reasoning has gained significant attention in recent years. Previous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of various prompting strategies in aiding LLMs in reasoning (called "reasoning actions"), such as step-by-step thinking, reflec…
Batch prompting, which combines a batch of multiple queries sharing the same context in one inference, has emerged as a promising solution to reduce inference costs. However, our study reveals a significant security vulnerability in batch prompting: malicious users can inject attack instructions int…
The meaning of complex phrases in natural language is composed of their individual components. The task of compositional generalization evaluates a model’s ability to understand new combinations of components. Previous studies trained smaller, task-specific models, which exhibited poor generalizatio…
Large language models (LLMs) such as GPT-4 have exhibited remarkable performance in a variety of tasks, but this strong performance often comes with the high expense of using paid API services. In this paper, we are motivated to study building an LLM "cascade" to save the cost of using LLMs, particu…
