ProRAC: A Neuro-symbolic Method for Reasoning about Actions with LLM-based Progression
PositiveArtificial Intelligence
ProRAC (Progression-based Reasoning about Actions and Change) is a neuro-symbolic framework that utilizes large language models (LLMs) to address reasoning about actions and changes (RAC) problems. The framework extracts essential elements from RAC problems, executes actions progressively to determine the final state, and evaluates queries against this state. Evaluations on various RAC benchmarks indicate that ProRAC demonstrates strong performance across diverse tasks and domains.
GRPO-RM: Fine-Tuning Representation Models via GRPO-Driven Reinforcement Learning
PositiveArtificial Intelligence
The paper presents Group Relative Policy Optimization for Representation Model (GRPO-RM), a reinforcement learning method aimed at fine-tuning large language models (LLMs). It establishes a predefined output set to replace token sequence sampling, facilitating the generation of an output group essential for GRPO's optimization. A specialized reward function is also introduced to cater to representation models, with extensive experiments validating the method's effectiveness across various real-world datasets.
Mathematical Analysis of Hallucination Dynamics in Large Language Models: Uncertainty Quantification, Advanced Decoding, and Principled Mitigation

Trade-offs in Large Reasoning Models: An Empirical Analysis of Deliberative and Adaptive Reasoning over Foundational Capabilities
NeutralArtificial Intelligence
Recent advancements in Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) have shown impressive performance in specialized reasoning tasks. However, a systematic evaluation reveals that acquiring deliberative reasoning capabilities significantly reduces foundational capabilities, leading to declines in helpfulness and harmlessness, along with increased inference costs. Adaptive reasoning methods can alleviate these drawbacks, highlighting the need for more versatile LRMs.
Breaking Expert Knowledge Limits: Self-Pruning for Large Language Models
PositiveArtificial Intelligence
Large language models (LLMs) have shown impressive capabilities across various tasks, but their extensive size complicates real-world applications. Traditional pruning methods, like Wanda, require significant manual effort and expert knowledge, leading to high costs. This study introduces AutoPrune, a self-pruning method that allows LLMs to autonomously design optimal pruning algorithms, addressing the challenges of expert dependency and performance degradation due to uniform sparsity.
