Think Twice: Perspective-Taking Improves Large Language Models' Theory-of-Mind Capabilities

1 code implementation16 Nov 2023 Alex Wilf, Sihyun Shawn Lee, Paul Pu Liang, Louis-Philippe Morency

Human interactions are deeply rooted in the interplay of thoughts, beliefs, and desires made possible by Theory of Mind (ToM): our cognitive ability to understand the mental states of ourselves and others.

Comparative Knowledge Distillation

1 code implementation3 Nov 2023 Alex Wilf, Alex Tianyi Xu, Paul Pu Liang, Alexander Obolenskiy, Daniel Fried, Louis-Philippe Morency

We observe that prevalent KD techniques and state of the art data augmentation strategies fall short in this constrained setting.

Multimodal Learning Without Labeled Multimodal Data: Guarantees and Applications

1 code implementation7 Jun 2023 Paul Pu Liang, Chun Kai Ling, Yun Cheng, Alex Obolenskiy, Yudong Liu, Rohan Pandey, Alex Wilf, Louis-Philippe Morency, Ruslan Salakhutdinov

We propose two lower bounds based on the amount of shared information between modalities and the disagreement between separately trained unimodal classifiers, and derive an upper bound through connections to approximate algorithms for min-entropy couplings.

Difference-Masking: Choosing What to Mask in Continued Pretraining

1 code implementation23 May 2023 Alex Wilf, Syeda Nahida Akter, Leena Mathur, Paul Pu Liang, Sheryl Mathew, Mengrou Shou, Eric Nyberg, Louis-Philippe Morency

The self-supervised objective of masking-and-predicting has led to promising performance gains on a variety of downstream tasks.
