DeepSeek-Prover-V1.5: Harnessing Proof Assistant Feedback for Reinforcement Learning and Monte-Carlo Tree Search

ICLR 2025poster

Lean is an advanced proof assistant designed to facilitate formal theorem proving by providing a variety of interactive feedback. In this paper, we explore methodologies to leverage proof assistant feedback to augment the capabilities of large language models in constructing formal proofs. First, we…

CRITIC: Large Language Models Can Self-Correct with Tool-Interactive Critiquing

ICLR 2024poster

Recent developments in large language models (LLMs) have been impressive. However, these models sometimes show inconsistencies and problematic behavior, such as hallucinating facts, generating flawed code, or creating offensive and toxic content. Unlike these models, humans typically utilize externa…

Learning Task Decomposition to Assist Humans in Competitive Programming

ACL 2024long

When using language models (LMs) to solve complex problems, humans might struggle to understand the LM-generated solutions and repair the flawed ones. To assist humans in repairing them, we propose to automatically decompose complex solutions into multiple simpler pieces that correspond to specific…

Math-Shepherd: Verify and Reinforce LLMs Step-by-step without Human Annotations

ACL 2024long

In this paper, we present an innovative process-oriented math process reward model called Math-shepherd, which assigns a reward score to each step of math problem solutions. The training of Math-shepherd is achieved using automatically constructed process-wise supervision data, breaking the bottlene…

Synthetic Prompting: Generating Chain-of-Thought Demonstrations for Large Language Models

ICML 2023poster

Large language models can perform various reasoning tasks by using chain-of-thought prompting, which guides them to find answers through step-by-step demonstrations. However, the quality of the prompts depends on the demonstrations given to the models, and creating many of them by hand is costly. We…

A Mutual Information Maximization Approach for the Spurious Solution Problem in Weakly Supervised Question Answering

ACL 2021long

Weakly supervised question answering usually has only the final answers as supervision signals while the correct solutions to derive the answers are not provided. This setting gives rise to the spurious solution problem: there may exist many spurious solutions that coincidentally derive the correct…
