Selection, Reflection and Self-Refinement: Revisit Reasoning Tasks via a Causal Lens

ICLR 2026poster

Due to their inherent complexity, reasoning tasks have long been regarded as rigorous benchmarks for assessing the capabilities of machine learning models, especially large language models (LLMs). Although humans can solve these tasks with ease, existing models, even after extensive pre-training and…

CausalVerse: Benchmarking Causal Representation Learning with Configurable High-Fidelity Simulations

NeurIPS 2025spotlight

Causal Representation Learning (CRL) aims to uncover the data-generating process and identify the underlying causal variables and relations, whose evaluation remains inherently challenging due to the requirement of known ground-truth causal variables and causal structure. Existing evaluations often…

Reflection-Window Decoding: Text Generation with Selective Refinement

ICML 2025poster

The autoregressive decoding for text generation in large language models (LLMs), while widely used, is inherently suboptimal due to the lack of a built-in mechanism to perform refinement and/or correction of the generated content. In this paper, we consider optimality in terms of the joint probabili…

Towards Self-Refinement of Vision-Language Models with Triangular Consistency

NeurIPS 2025poster

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) integrate visual knowledge with the analytical capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) through supervised visual instruction tuning, using image-question-answer triplets. However, the potential of VLMs trained without supervised instruction remains largely unexplor…
