Traditional greedy tokenization methods have been a critical step in Natural Language Processing (NLP), influencing how text is converted into tokens and directly impacting model performance. While subword tokenizers like Byte-Pair Encoding (BPE) are widely used, questions remain about their optimality across model scales and languages. In this work, we demonstrate through extensive experiments that an optimal BPE configuration significantly reduces token count compared to greedy segmentation, yielding improvements in token-saving percentages and performance benefits, particularly for smaller models. We evaluate tokenization performance across various intrinsic and extrinsic tasks, including generation and classification. Our findings suggest that compression-optimized tokenization strategies could provide substantial advantages for multilingual and low-resource language applications, highlighting a promising direction for further research and inclusive NLP.

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable effectiveness in text reranking through works like RankGPT, leveraging their human-like reasoning about relevance. However, supervised fine-tuning for ranking often diminishes these models' general-purpose capabilities, including the crucial reasoning abilities that make them valuable for ranking. We introduce a novel approach integrating Chain-of-Thought prompting with an SFT-DPO (Supervised Fine-Tuning followed by Direct Preference Optimization) pipeline to preserve these capabilities while improving ranking performance. Our experiments on TREC 2019 and 2020 Deep Learning datasets show that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art RankZephyr while maintaining strong performance on the Massive Multitask Language Understanding (MMLU) benchmark, demonstrating effective preservation of general-purpose capabilities through thoughtful fine-tuning strategies. Our code and data will be publicly released upon the acceptance of the paper.

Recent progress in generative diffusion models has greatly advanced text-to-video generation. While text-to-video models trained on large-scale, diverse datasets can produce varied outputs, these generations often deviate from user preferences, highlighting the need for preference alignment on pre-trained models. Although Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) has demonstrated significant improvements in language and image generation, we pioneer its adaptation to video diffusion models and propose a VideoDPO pipeline by making several key adjustments. Unlike previous image alignment methods that focus solely on either (i) visual quality or (ii) semantic alignment between text and videos, we comprehensively consider both dimensions and construct a preference score accordingly, which we term the OmniScore. We design a pipeline to automatically collect preference pair data based on the proposed OmniScore and discover that re-weighting these pairs based on the score significantly impacts overall preference alignment. Our experiments demonstrate substantial improvements in both visual quality and semantic alignment, ensuring that no preference aspect is neglected.

Evaluation plays a crucial role in the advancement of information retrieval (IR) models. However, current benchmarks, which are based on predefined domains and human-labeled data, face limitations in addressing evaluation needs for emerging domains both cost-effectively and efficiently. To address this challenge, we propose the Automated Heterogeneous Information Retrieval Benchmark (AIR-Bench). AIR-Bench is distinguished by three key features: 1) Automated. The testing data in AIR-Bench is automatically generated by large language models (LLMs) without human intervention. 2) Heterogeneous. The testing data in AIR-Bench is generated with respect to diverse tasks, domains and languages. 3) Dynamic. The domains and languages covered by AIR-Bench are constantly augmented to provide an increasingly comprehensive evaluation benchmark for community developers. We develop a reliable and robust data generation pipeline to automatically create diverse and high-quality evaluation datasets based on real-world corpora. Our findings demonstrate that the generated testing data in AIR-Bench aligns well with human-labeled testing data, making AIR-Bench a dependable benchmark for evaluating IR models. The resources in AIR-Bench are publicly available at //github.com/AIR-Bench/AIR-Bench.

Large language models have demonstrated promising performance across various software engineering tasks. While fine-tuning is a common practice to adapt these models for downstream tasks, it becomes challenging in resource-constrained environments due to increased memory requirements from growing trainable parameters in increasingly large language models. We introduce \approach, a technique to adapt large models for downstream code tasks using Code Property Graphs (CPGs). Our approach introduces a modular component called \transducer that enriches code embeddings with structural and dependency information from CPGs. The Transducer comprises two key components: Graph Vectorization Engine (GVE) and Attention-Based Fusion Layer (ABFL). GVE extracts CPGs from input source code and transforms them into graph feature vectors. ABFL then fuses those graphs feature vectors with initial code embeddings from a large language model. By optimizing these transducers for different downstream tasks, our approach enhances the models without the need to fine-tune them for specific tasks. We have evaluated \approach on three downstream tasks: code summarization, assert generation, and code translation. Our results demonstrate competitive performance compared to full parameter fine-tuning while reducing up to 99\% trainable parameters to save memory. \approach also remains competitive against other fine-tuning approaches (e.g., LoRA, Prompt-Tuning, Prefix-Tuning) while using only 1.5\%-80\% of their trainable parameters. Our findings show that integrating structural and dependency information through Transducer Tuning enables more efficient model adaptation, making it easier for users to adapt large models in resource-constrained settings.

The commonly used Reinforcement Learning (RL) model, MDPs (Markov Decision Processes), has a basic premise that rewards depend on the current state and action only. However, many real-world tasks are non-Markovian, which has long-term memory and dependency. The reward sparseness problem is further amplified in non-Markovian scenarios. Hence learning a non-Markovian task (NMT) is inherently more difficult than learning a Markovian one. In this paper, we propose a novel \textbf{Par}allel and \textbf{Mod}ular RL framework, ParMod, specifically for learning NMTs specified by temporal logic. With the aid of formal techniques, the NMT is modulaized into a series of sub-tasks based on the automaton structure (equivalent to its temporal logic counterpart). On this basis, sub-tasks will be trained by a group of agents in a parallel fashion, with one agent handling one sub-task. Besides parallel training, the core of ParMod lies in: a flexible classification method for modularizing the NMT, and an effective reward shaping method for improving the sample efficiency. A comprehensive evaluation is conducted on several challenging benchmark problems with respect to various metrics. The experimental results show that ParMod achieves superior performance over other relevant studies. Our work thus provides a good synergy among RL, NMT and temporal logic.

Recent advancements in mixed-modal generative models have enabled flexible integration of information across image-text content. These models have opened new avenues for developing unified biomedical assistants capable of analyzing biomedical images, answering complex questions about them, and predicting the impact of medical procedures on a patient's health. However, existing resources face challenges such as limited data availability, narrow domain coverage, and restricted sources (e.g., medical papers). To address these gaps, we present MedMax, the first large-scale multimodal biomedical instruction-tuning dataset for mixed-modal foundation models. With 1.47 million instances, MedMax encompasses a diverse range of tasks, including multimodal content generation (interleaved image-text data), biomedical image captioning and generation, visual chatting, and report understanding. These tasks span diverse medical domains such as radiology and histopathology. Subsequently, we fine-tune a mixed-modal foundation model on the MedMax dataset, achieving significant performance improvements: a 26% gain over the Chameleon model and an 18.3% improvement over GPT-4o across 12 downstream biomedical visual question-answering tasks. Additionally, we introduce a unified evaluation suite for biomedical tasks, providing a robust framework to guide the development of next-generation mixed-modal biomedical AI assistants.

Diffusion models have emerged as a prominent class of generative models, surpassing previous methods regarding sample quality and training stability. Recent works have shown the advantages of diffusion models in improving reinforcement learning (RL) solutions, including as trajectory planners, expressive policy classes, data synthesizers, etc. This survey aims to provide an overview of the advancements in this emerging field and hopes to inspire new avenues of research. First, we examine several challenges encountered by current RL algorithms. Then, we present a taxonomy of existing methods based on the roles played by diffusion models in RL and explore how the existing challenges are addressed. We further outline successful applications of diffusion models in various RL-related tasks while discussing the limitations of current approaches. Finally, we conclude the survey and offer insights into future research directions, focusing on enhancing model performance and applying diffusion models to broader tasks. We are actively maintaining a GitHub repository for papers and other related resources in applying diffusion models in RL: //github.com/apexrl/Diff4RLSurvey .

Diffusion models (DMs) have shown great potential for high-quality image synthesis. However, when it comes to producing images with complex scenes, how to properly describe both image global structures and object details remains a challenging task. In this paper, we present Frido, a Feature Pyramid Diffusion model performing a multi-scale coarse-to-fine denoising process for image synthesis. Our model decomposes an input image into scale-dependent vector quantized features, followed by a coarse-to-fine gating for producing image output. During the above multi-scale representation learning stage, additional input conditions like text, scene graph, or image layout can be further exploited. Thus, Frido can be also applied for conditional or cross-modality image synthesis. We conduct extensive experiments over various unconditioned and conditional image generation tasks, ranging from text-to-image synthesis, layout-to-image, scene-graph-to-image, to label-to-image. More specifically, we achieved state-of-the-art FID scores on five benchmarks, namely layout-to-image on COCO and OpenImages, scene-graph-to-image on COCO and Visual Genome, and label-to-image on COCO.
