Do LLMs ``know'' internally when they follow instructions?

ICLR 2025poster

Instruction-following is crucial for building AI agents with large language models (LLMs), as these models must adhere strictly to user-provided constraints and guidelines. However, LLMs often fail to follow even simple and clear instructions. To improve instruction-following behavior and prevent u…

RelCon: Relative Contrastive Learning for a Motion Foundation Model for Wearable Data

ICLR 2025poster

We present RelCon, a novel self-supervised Relative Contrastive learning approach for training a motion foundation model from wearable accelerometry sensors. First, a learnable distance measure is trained to capture motif similarity and domain-specific semantic information such as rotation invarianc…
