This paper considers reinforcement learning from human feedback in a federated learning setting with resource-constrained agents, such as edge devices. We propose an efficient federated RLHF algorithm, named Partitioned, Sign-based…

Fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) using standard first-order (FO) optimization often drives training toward sharp, poorly generalizing minima. Conversely, zeroth-order (ZO) methods offer stronger exploratory behavior without relying…

Online linear programming (OLP) has gained significant attention from both researchers and practitioners due to its extensive applications, such as online auction, network revenue management, order fulfillment and advertising. Existing OLP…

Recent mixed-policy optimization methods for LLM reasoning that interleave or blend supervised and reinforcement learning signals report improvements over the standard SFT-then-RL pipeline. We show that numerous recently published research…

In this work, we propose a novel joint client scheduling and resource block (RB) allocation policy to minimize the loss of accuracy in federated learning (FL) over wireless compared to a centralized training-based solution, under imperfect…

Many real-world scenarios require multiple agents to coordinate in shared environments, while balancing trade-offs between multiple, potentially competing objectives. Current multi-objective multi-agent path finding (MO-MAPF) algorithms…

We consider the online resource minimization problem in which jobs with hard deadlines arrive online over time at their release dates. The task is to determine a feasible schedule on a minimum number of machines. We rigorously study this…

Pruning is an effective method for compressing Large Language Models, but finding an optimal, non-uniform layer-wise sparsity allocation remains a key challenge. While heuristic methods are fast but yield suboptimal performance, more…

In continual learning, networks confront a trade-off between stability and plasticity when trained on a sequence of tasks. To bolster plasticity without sacrificing stability, we propose a novel training algorithm called LRFR. This approach…

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) significantly reduces memory costs when adapting large language models (LLMs) for downstream applications. However, traditional first-order (FO) fine-tuning algorithms incur substantial memory overhead…

We consider the dynamic resource allocation problem where the decision space is finite-dimensional, yet the solution must satisfy a large or even infinite number of constraints revealed via streaming data or oracle feedback. We model this…

Fuzzy co-clustering can be improved if we handle two main problem first is outlier and second curse of dimensionality .outlier problem can be reduce by implementing page replacement algorithm like FIFO, LRU or priority algorithm in a set of…

In many real-world problems, first-order (FO) derivative evaluations are too expensive or even inaccessible. For solving these problems, zeroth-order (ZO) methods that only need function evaluations are often more efficient than FO methods…

Aligning language models (LMs) with curated human feedback is critical to control their behaviors in real-world applications. Several recent policy optimization methods, such as DPO and SLiC, serve as promising alternatives to the…

This work suggests fundamentally rethinking the current practice of pruning large language models (LLMs). The way it is done is by divide and conquer: split the model into submodels, sequentially prune them, and reconstruct predictions of…

Methods for learning to search for structured prediction typically imitate a reference policy, with existing theoretical guarantees demonstrating low regret compared to that reference. This is unsatisfactory in many applications where the…

In this paper, we investigate a class of non-convex sum-of-ratios programs relevant to decision-making in key areas such as product assortment and pricing, and facility location and cost planning. These optimization problems, characterized…

Low-latency gravitational wave search pipelines such as GstLAL take advantage of low-rank factorization of the template matrix via singular value decomposition (SVD). With unprecedented improvements in detector bandwidth and sensitivity in…

The selection problem, where one wishes to locate the $k^{th}$ smallest element in an unsorted array of size $n$, is one of the basic problems studied in computer science. The main focus of this work is designing algorithms for solving the…

Iterative preference optimization methods have recently been shown to perform well for general instruction tuning tasks, but typically make little improvement on reasoning tasks (Yuan et al., 2024, Chen et al., 2024). In this work we…
