We present CHASE-SQL, a novel framework addressing large language model (LLM) performance challenges for Text-to-SQL tasks by leveraging multi-agent modeling and test-time compute for improved candidate generation and selection. CHASE-SQL uses LLMs to generate diverse SQL candidates with: (1) a divi…
Distributed optimization is the standard way of speeding up machine learning training, and most of the research in the area focuses on distributed first-order, gradient-based methods. Yet, there are settings where some computationally-bounded nodes may not be able to implement first-order, gradient-…
Large reasoning models (LRMs) excel at complex reasoning tasks but typically generate lengthy sequential chains-of-thought, resulting in long inference times before arriving at the final answer. To address this challenge, we introduce SPRINT, a novel post-training and inference-time framework design…
Federated Learning (FL) enables large-scale distributed training of machine learning models, while still allowing individual nodes to maintain data locally. However, executing FL at scale comes with inherent practical challenges: 1) heterogeneity of the local node data distributions, 2) heterogeneit…
