FLAD: Federated Learning for LLM-based Autonomous Driving in Vehicle-Edge-Cloud Networks

arXiv — cs.LG•Thursday, November 13, 2025 at 5:00:00 AM
PositiveArtificial Intelligence
The Federated LLM-based Autonomous Driving (FLAD) framework has been introduced to tackle the challenges of training large language models (LLMs) for autonomous driving, particularly high computation transmission costs and privacy concerns. FLAD employs federated learning, allowing autonomous vehicles to collaboratively train models without sharing raw data, thus preserving privacy. Key innovations include a cloud-edge-vehicle collaborative architecture that minimizes communication delays, an intelligent parallelized training mechanism that optimizes efficiency, and a knowledge distillation method for personalizing LLMs based on diverse edge data. Prototyped using NVIDIA Jetsons, FLAD demonstrates superior end-to-end performance in autonomous driving while effectively utilizing distributed vehicular resources, marking a significant advancement in the field of AI and autonomous systems.

Fair In-Context Learning via Latent Concept Variables
PositiveArtificial Intelligence
The paper titled 'Fair In-Context Learning via Latent Concept Variables' explores the in-context learning (ICL) capabilities of large language models (LLMs) in handling tabular data. It highlights the potential for LLMs to inherit biases from pre-training data, which can lead to discrimination in high-stakes applications. The authors propose an optimal demonstration selection method using latent concept variables to enhance task adaptation and fairness, alongside data augmentation strategies to minimize correlations between sensitive variables and predictive outcomes.

Silenced Biases: The Dark Side LLMs Learned to Refuse
NegativeArtificial Intelligence
Safety-aligned large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in sensitive applications where fairness is crucial. Evaluating their fairness is complex, often relying on standard question-answer methods that misinterpret refusal responses as indicators of fairness. This paper introduces the concept of silenced biases, which are unfair preferences hidden within the models' latent space, masked by safety-alignment. Previous methods have limitations, prompting the need for new approaches to uncover these biases effectively.

Identifying and Analyzing Performance-Critical Tokens in Large Language Models
NeutralArtificial Intelligence
The paper titled 'Identifying and Analyzing Performance-Critical Tokens in Large Language Models' explores how large language models (LLMs) utilize in-context learning (ICL) for few-shot learning. It categorizes tokens in ICL prompts into content, stopword, and template tokens, aiming to identify those that significantly impact LLM performance. The study reveals that template and stopword tokens have a greater influence on performance than informative content tokens, challenging existing assumptions about human attention to informative words.

Modeling and Predicting Multi-Turn Answer Instability in Large Language Models
NeutralArtificial Intelligence
The paper titled 'Modeling and Predicting Multi-Turn Answer Instability in Large Language Models' discusses the evaluation of large language models (LLMs) in terms of their robustness during user interactions. The study employs multi-turn follow-up prompts to assess changes in model answers and accuracy dynamics using Markov chains. Results indicate vulnerabilities in LLMs, with a 10% accuracy drop for Gemini 1.5 Flash after a 'Think again' prompt over nine turns, and a 7.5% drop for Claude 3.5 Haiku with a reworded question. The findings suggest that accuracy can be modeled over time.

A Multifaceted Analysis of Negative Bias in Large Language Models through the Lens of Parametric Knowledge
NeutralArtificial Intelligence
A recent study published on arXiv examines the phenomenon of negative bias in large language models (LLMs), which refers to their tendency to generate negative responses in binary decision tasks. The research highlights that previous studies have primarily focused on identifying negative attention heads that contribute to this bias. The authors introduce a new evaluation pipeline that categorizes responses based on the model's parametric knowledge, revealing that the format of prompts significantly influences the responses more than the semantics of the content itself.
