Process Reward Models (PRMs) enhance reasoning ability of LLMs by providing step-level supervision. However, their widespread adoption is limited due to expensive manual step-level annotation and poor generalization of static training data to novel errors. We introduce Adversarially Trained PRMs (AP…
Reasoning is a core capability of language models (LMs), yet it remains unclear how much model capacity is necessary to support reasoning during pretraining. In this work, we study the minimal parameter budget required for implicit reasoning, defined as the ability to infer new facts from learned kn…
Many real-world tasks are non-verifiable—there is no objective ground truth, and quality must be judged subjectively—making reward design for RL difficult. Existing approaches based on scalar rubric scores or single comparisons are often noisy, poorly calibrated, or provide sparse learning signals. …
In this work, we introduce SpikeATac, a multimodal tactile finger combining a taxelized and highly sensitive dynamic response (PVDF) with a static transduction method (capacitive) for multimodal touch sensing. Named for its `spiky' response, SpikeATac's 16-taxel PVDF film sampled at 4 kHz provides f…
We investigate complex video question answering via chain-of-evidence reasoning --- identifying sequences of temporal spans from multiple relevant parts of the video, together with visual evidence within them.Existing models struggle with multi-step reasoning as they uniformly sample a fixed number…
Recent studies show that large language models (LLMs) improve their performance through self-feedback on certain tasks while degrade on others. We discovered that such a contrary is due to LLM’s bias in evaluating their own output. In this paper, we formally define LLM’s self-bias – the tendency to…
