Data curation is a critical yet underexplored component in large language model (LLM) training. Existing approaches (such as data selection and data mixing) operate in an offline paradigm, decoupled from the training process. This separation introduces extra engineering overhead and makes curated su…
Reinforcement finetuning (RFT) has garnered significant attention in recent years, particularly for enhancing large reasoning models such as OpenAI o1 and Deepseek R1. The appeal of RFT largely stems from its ability to refine model knowledge, better align outputs with user intent, and address chall…
Continual learning (CL) enables models to acquire new tasks sequentially while retaining previously learned knowledge. However, most theoretical analyses focus on simplified, converged models or restrictive data distributions and therefore fail to capture how forgetting and generalization evolve du…
Conditional decision generation with diffusion models has shown powerful competitiveness in reinforcement learning (RL). Recent studies reveal the relation between energy-function-guidance diffusion models and constrained RL problems. The main challenge lies in estimating the intermediate energy, wh…
Selecting high-quality pre-training data for large language models (LLMs) is crucial for enhancing their overall performance under limited computation budget, improving both training and sample efficiency. Recent advancements in file selection primarily rely on using an existing or trained proxy mod…
Continual offline reinforcement learning (CORL) has shown impressive ability in diffusion-based continual learning systems by modeling the joint distributions of trajectories. However, most research only focuses on limited continual task settings where the tasks have the same observation and action…
The purpose of offline multi-task reinforcement learning (MTRL) is to develop a unified policy applicable to diverse tasks without the need for online environmental interaction. Recent advancements approach this through sequence modeling, leveraging the Transformer architecture's scalability and the…
Transformer-based trajectory optimization methods have demonstrated exceptional performance in offline Reinforcement Learning (offline RL). Yet, it poses challenges due to substantial parameter size and limited scalability, which is particularly critical in sequential decision-making scenarios where…
In numerous artificial intelligence applications, the collaborative efforts of multiple intelligent agents are imperative for the successful attainment of target objectives. To enhance coordination among these agents, a distributed communication framework is often employed. However, information shar…
In federated learning (FL), the multi-step update and data heterogeneity among clients often lead to a loss landscape with sharper minima, degenerating the performance of the resulted global model. Prevalent federated approaches incorporate sharpness-aware minimization (SAM) into local training to m…
Recent advancements in offline reinforcement learning (RL) have underscored the capabilities of Conditional Sequence Modeling (CSM), a paradigm that learns the action distribution based on history trajectory and target returns for each state. However, these methods often struggle with stitching toge…
"Many existing autonomous driving paradigms involve a multi-stage discrete pipeline of tasks. To better predict the control signals and enhance user safety, an end-to-end approach that benefits from joint spatial-temporal feature learning is desirable. While there are some pioneering works on LiDAR-…
