Collaborative AI Agents in the Era of Large Language Models

Developing agents that can reliably act on our behalf is central to artificial intelligence (AI). These agents must seamlessly interact with tools, like search engines and databases, and collaborate. In this thesis, we study the abstractions, methods, and ...

Language Model Decoding as Likelihood–Utility Alignment

Boi Faltings, Maxime Jean Julien Peyrard, Robert West, Martin Josifoski, Valentin Hartmann, Jiheng Wei, Frano Rajic, Debjit Paul

A critical component of a successful language generation pipeline is the decoding algorithm. However, the general principles that should guide the choice of a decoding algorithm re- main unclear. Previous works only compare decoding algorithms in narrow sc ...

Scalable PAC-Bayesian Meta-Learning via the PAC-Optimal Hyper-Posterior: From Theory to Practice

Martin Josifoski

Meta-Learning aims to speed up the learning process on new tasks by acquiring useful inductive biases from datasets of related learning tasks. While, in practice, the number of related tasks available is often small, most of the existing approaches assume ...

GenIE: Generative Information Extraction

Maxime Jean Julien Peyrard, Robert West, Martin Josifoski

Structured and grounded representation of text is typically formalized by closed information extraction, the problem of extracting an exhaustive set of (subject, relation, object) triplets that are consistent with a predefined set of entities and relations ...

PACOH: Bayes-Optimal Meta-Learning with PAC-Guarantees

Martin Josifoski, Andreas Krause

Meta-learning can successfully acquire useful inductive biases from data. Yet, its generalization properties to unseen learning tasks are poorly understood. Particularly if the number of meta-training tasks is small, this raises concerns about overfitting. ...

Crosslingual Document Embedding as Reduced-Rank Ridge Regression

Martin Jaggi, Robert West, Martin Josifoski, Ivan Paskov

There has recently been much interest in extending vector-based word representations to multiple languages, such that words can be compared across languages. In this paper, we shift the focus from words to documents and introduce a method for embedding doc ...
