Fine-Tuned LLMs Know They Don’t Know: A Parameter-Efficient Approach to Recovering Honesty

AAAI 2026technical

The honesty of Large Language Models (LLMs) is increasingly important for safe deployment in high-stakes domains. However, this crucial trait is severely undermined by supervised fine-tuning (SFT), a common technique for model specialization. Existing recovery methods rely on data-intensive global p

Towards Physically Executable 3D Gaussian for Embodied Navigation

ICLR 2026poster

3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), a 3D representation method with photorealistic real-time rendering capabilities, is regarded as an effective tool for narrowing the sim-to-real gap. However, it lacks fine-grained semantics and physical executability for Visual-Language Navigation (VLN). To address this…

FLUE: Streamlined Uncertainty Estimation for Large Language Models

AAAI 2025technical

Uncertainty estimation is essential for practical applications such as decision-making, risk assessment, and human-AI collaboration. However, Uncertainty estimation in open-ended question-answering (QA) tasks presents unique challenges. The output space for open-ended QA is vast and discrete, and th…

Towards Objective Fine-tuning: How LLMs’ Prior Knowledge Causes Potential Poor Calibration?

ACL 2025long

Fine-tuned Large Language Models (LLMs) often demonstrate poor calibration, with their confidence scores misaligned with actual performance. While calibration has been extensively studied in models trained from scratch, the impact of LLMs’ prior knowledge on calibration during fine-tuning remains un…

Dual Defense: Enhancing Privacy and Mitigating Poisoning Attacks in Federated Learning

NeurIPS 2024poster

Federated learning (FL) is inherently susceptible to privacy breaches and poisoning attacks. To tackle these challenges, researchers have separately devised secure aggregation mechanisms to protect data privacy and robust aggregation methods that withstand poisoning attacks. However, simultaneously…

QUEST: Quadruple Multimodal Contrastive Learning with Constraints and Self-Penalization

NeurIPS 2024poster

Multimodal contrastive learning (MCL) has recently demonstrated significant success across various tasks. However, the existing MCL treats all negative samples equally and ignores the potential semantic association with positive samples, which limits the model's ability to achieve fine-grained align…
