SIPDO: Closed-Loop Prompt Optimization via Synthetic Data Feedback

ICLR 2026poster

Prompt quality plays a critical role in the performance of large language models (LLMs), motivating a growing body of work on prompt optimization. Most existing methods optimize prompts over a fixed dataset, assuming static input distributions and offering limited support for iterative improvement.…

Evaluating the Inductive Abilities of Large Language Models: Why Chain-of-Thought Reasoning Sometimes Hurts More Than Helps

NeurIPS 2025poster

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown remarkable progress across domains, yet their ability to perform inductive reasoning—inferring latent rules from sparse examples—remains limited. It is often assumed that chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting, as used in Large Reasoning Models (LRMs), enhances suc…

Revolve: Optimizing AI Systems by Tracking Response Evolution in Textual Optimization

ICML 2025poster

Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) have significantly enhanced the ability of LLM-based systems to perform complex tasks through natural language processing and tool interaction. However, optimizing these LLM-based systems for specific tasks remains challenging, often requiring manu…

Foundation Model-oriented Robustness: Robust Image Model Evaluation with Pretrained Models

ICLR 2024poster

Machine learning has demonstrated remarkable performance over finite datasets, yet whether the scores over the fixed benchmarks can sufficiently indicate the model’s performance in the real world is still in discussion. In reality, an ideal robust model will probably behave similarly to the oracle (…

A Comprehensive Study on Text-attributed Graphs: Benchmarking and Rethinking

NeurIPS 2023poster

Text-attributed graphs (TAGs) are prevalent in various real-world scenarios, where each node is associated with a text description. The cornerstone of representation learning on TAGs lies in the seamless integration of textual semantics within individual nodes and the topological connections across…
