Abstract Language Models (LMs) achieve substantial language capabilities when finetuned using Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF). However, RLHF is an unstable and data-hungry process that continually requires new high-quality LM-generated data for finetuning. We introduce Advantage-Leftover Lunch RL (A-LoL), a new class of offline policy gradient algorithms that enable RL training on any pre-existing data. By assuming the entire LM output sequence as a single action, A-LoL allows incorporating sequence-level classifiers or human-designed scoring functions as rewards. Subsequently, by using LM's internal sequence-level value estimate, A-LoL filters negative advantage (low-quality) data points during training, making it resilient to noise. Overall, A-LoL is an easy-to-implement LM training recipe that is sample-efficient and stable. We demonstrate the effectiveness of A-LoL and its variants with a set of four different language generation tasks. We compare against both online RL (PPO) and recent preference-based (DPO, PRO) and reward-based (GOLD) offline RL baselines. On the commonly-used RLHF benchmark, Helpful and Harmless Assistant (HHA), LMs trained with A-LoL methods achieve the highest diversity while also being rated more safe and helpful than baselines according to humans. Additionally, in the remaining three tasks, A-LoL could optimize multiple distinct reward functions even when using noisy or suboptimal training data. We also release our experimental code. //github.com/abaheti95/LoL-RL

This report examines the effectiveness of Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting in improving the multi-step reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs). Inspired by previous studies \cite{Min2022RethinkingWork}, we analyze the impact of three types of CoT prompt perturbations, namely CoT order, CoT values, and CoT operators on the performance of GPT-3 on various tasks. Our findings show that incorrect CoT prompting leads to poor performance on accuracy metrics. Correct values in the CoT is crucial for predicting correct answers. Moreover, incorrect demonstrations, where the CoT operators or the CoT order are wrong, do not affect the performance as drastically when compared to the value based perturbations. This research deepens our understanding of CoT prompting and opens some new questions regarding the capability of LLMs to learn reasoning in context.

Privacy policies outline the data practices of Online Social Networks (OSN) to comply with privacy regulations such as the EU-GDPR and CCPA. Several ontologies for modeling privacy regulations, policies, and compliance have emerged in recent years. However, they are limited in various ways: (1) they specifically model what is required of privacy policies according to one specific privacy regulation such as GDPR; (2) they provide taxonomies of concepts but are not sufficiently axiomatized to afford automated reasoning with them; and (3) they do not model data practices of privacy policies in sufficient detail to allow assessing the transparency of policies. This paper presents an OWL Ontology for Privacy Policies of OSNs, OPPO, that aims to fill these gaps by formalizing detailed data practices from OSNS' privacy policies. OPPO is grounded in BFO, IAO, OMRSE, and OBI, and its design is guided by the use case of representing and reasoning over the content of OSNs' privacy policies and evaluating policies' transparency in greater detail.

Substantial experiments have validated the success of Batch Normalization (BN) Layer in benefiting convergence and generalization. However, BN requires extra memory and float-point calculation. Moreover, BN would be inaccurate on micro-batch, as it depends on batch statistics. In this paper, we address these problems by simplifying BN regularization while keeping two fundamental impacts of BN layers, i.e., data decorrelation and adaptive learning rate. We propose a novel normalization method, named MimicNorm, to improve the convergence and efficiency in network training. MimicNorm consists of only two light operations, including modified weight mean operations (subtract mean values from weight parameter tensor) and one BN layer before loss function (last BN layer). We leverage the neural tangent kernel (NTK) theory to prove that our weight mean operation whitens activations and transits network into the chaotic regime like BN layer, and consequently, leads to an enhanced convergence. The last BN layer provides autotuned learning rates and also improves accuracy. Experimental results show that MimicNorm achieves similar accuracy for various network structures, including ResNets and lightweight networks like ShuffleNet, with a reduction of about 20% memory consumption. The code is publicly available at //github.com/Kid-key/MimicNorm.

The Online Chauffeured Service Demand (OCSD) research is an exploratory market study of designated driver services in China. Researchers are interested in the influencing factors of chauffeured service adoption and usage and have collected relevant data using a self-reported questionnaire. As self-reported count measure data is typically inflated, there exist challenges to its validity, which may bias estimation and increase error in empirical research. Motivated by the analysis of self-reported data with multiple inflated values, we propose a novel approach to simultaneously achieve data-driven inflated value selection and identification of important influencing factors. In particular, the regularization technique is applied to the mixing proportions of inflated values and the regression parameters to obtain shrinkage estimates. We analyze the OCSD data with the proposed approach, deriving insights into the determinants impacting service demand. The proper interpretations and implications contribute to service promotion and related policy optimization. Extensive simulation studies and consistent asymptotic properties further establish the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have recently demonstrated a remarkable success across various tasks. However, efficiently serving LLMs has been a challenge due to its large memory bottleneck, specifically in small batch inference settings (e.g. mobile devices). Weight-only quantization can be a promising approach, but sub-4 bit quantization remains a challenge due to large-magnitude activation outliers. To mitigate the undesirable outlier effect, we first propose per-IC quantization, a simple yet effective method that creates quantization groups within each input channel (IC) rather than the conventional per-output channel (OC). Our method is motivated by the observation that activation outliers affect the input dimension of the weight matrix, so similarly grouping the weights in the IC direction can isolate outliers to be within a group. We also find that activation outliers do not dictate quantization difficulty, and inherent weight sensitivities also exist. With per-IC quantization as a new outlier-friendly scheme, we then propose Adaptive Dimensions (AdaDim), a versatile quantization framework that can adapt to various weight sensitivity patterns. We demonstrate the effectiveness of AdaDim by augmenting prior methods such as Round-To-Nearest and GPTQ, showing significant improvements across various language modeling benchmarks for both base (up to +4.7% on MMLU) and instruction-tuned (up to +10% on HumanEval) LLMs.

In observational studies, the identification of causal estimands depends on the no unmeasured confounding (NUC) assumption. As this assumption is not testable from observed data, sensitivity analysis plays an important role in observational studies to investigate the impact of unmeasured confounding on the causal conclusions. In this paper, we proposed a risk-ratio-based sensitivity analysis framework by introducing a modified marginal sensitivity model for observational studies with binary treatments. We further extended the proposed framework to the multivalued treatment setting.We then showed how the point estimate intervals and the corresponding percentile bootstrap confidence intervals can be constructed efficiently under the proposed framework. Simulation results suggested that the proposed framework of sensitivity analysis performs well in the presence of adequate overlap among the treatment groups. Lastly, we demonstrated our proposed sensitivity analysis framework by estimating the causal effect of maternal education on female fertility in Bangladesh.

We present a comprehensive evaluation of the robustness and explainability of ResNet-like models in the context of Unintended Radiated Emission (URE) classification and suggest a new approach leveraging Neural Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) to address identified limitations. We provide an empirical demonstration of the fragility of ResNet-like models to Gaussian noise perturbations, where the model performance deteriorates sharply and its F1-score drops to near insignificance at 0.008 with a Gaussian noise of only 0.5 standard deviation. We also highlight a concerning discrepancy where the explanations provided by ResNet-like models do not reflect the inherent periodicity in the input data, a crucial attribute in URE detection from stable devices. In response to these findings, we propose a novel application of Neural SDEs to build models for URE classification that are not only robust to noise but also provide more meaningful and intuitive explanations. Neural SDE models maintain a high F1-score of 0.93 even when exposed to Gaussian noise with a standard deviation of 0.5, demonstrating superior resilience to ResNet models. Neural SDE models successfully recover the time-invariant or periodic horizontal bands from the input data, a feature that was conspicuously missing in the explanations generated by ResNet-like models. This advancement presents a small but significant step in the development of robust and interpretable models for real-world URE applications where data is inherently noisy and assurance arguments demand interpretable machine learning predictions.

This work aims to provide an engagement decision support tool for Beyond Visual Range (BVR) air combat in the context of Defensive Counter Air (DCA) missions. In BVR air combat, engagement decision refers to the choice of the moment the pilot engages a target by assuming an offensive stance and executing corresponding maneuvers. To model this decision, we use the Brazilian Air Force's Aerospace Simulation Environment (\textit{Ambiente de Simula\c{c}\~ao Aeroespacial - ASA} in Portuguese), which generated 3,729 constructive simulations lasting 12 minutes each and a total of 10,316 engagements. We analyzed all samples by an operational metric called the DCA index, which represents, based on the experience of subject matter experts, the degree of success in this type of mission. This metric considers the distances of the aircraft of the same team and the opposite team, the point of Combat Air Patrol, and the number of missiles used. By defining the engagement status right before it starts and the average of the DCA index throughout the engagement, we create a supervised learning model to determine the quality of a new engagement. An algorithm based on decision trees, working with the XGBoost library, provides a regression model to predict the DCA index with a coefficient of determination close to 0.8 and a Root Mean Square Error of 0.05 that can furnish parameters to the BVR pilot to decide whether or not to engage. Thus, using data obtained through simulations, this work contributes by building a decision support system based on machine learning for BVR air combat.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are successful in many computer vision tasks. However, the most accurate DNNs require millions of parameters and operations, making them energy, computation and memory intensive. This impedes the deployment of large DNNs in low-power devices with limited compute resources. Recent research improves DNN models by reducing the memory requirement, energy consumption, and number of operations without significantly decreasing the accuracy. This paper surveys the progress of low-power deep learning and computer vision, specifically in regards to inference, and discusses the methods for compacting and accelerating DNN models. The techniques can be divided into four major categories: (1) parameter quantization and pruning, (2) compressed convolutional filters and matrix factorization, (3) network architecture search, and (4) knowledge distillation. We analyze the accuracy, advantages, disadvantages, and potential solutions to the problems with the techniques in each category. We also discuss new evaluation metrics as a guideline for future research.
