HTEB introduces dynamic, multi-axis evaluation of text embedding robustness using LLM transformations, finding decoupled profiles across models and that scaling does not close all robustness gaps.
A 400k+ GPU-hour study shows RL scaling in LLMs follows predictable sigmoidal trajectories, with most design choices affecting efficiency rather than the performance asymptote, enabling accurate large-scale predictions via the ScaleRL recipe.
Establishes concentration bounds for infinitely exchangeable sequences with cancellation for zero-sum contrasts and applies the result to distribution-free uncertainty quantification in composite AI benchmarks.
Maps common low-compute research strategies for foundation models onto statistical, internal, external, and construct validity threats via a causal-inference lens.
Paired LLM leaderboard comparisons frequently lack resolution at conventional (alpha=0.05, power=0.8) levels, with a new per-pair ratio q=N/N* showing that common unpaired shortcuts underestimate required samples by roughly a factor of two.
Dynamic Boundary Evaluation locates each LLM's performance boundary at ~50% pass probability via a calibrated item bank and Skill-Guided Boundary Search algorithm to enable unified, adaptive evaluations across safety, capability, and truthfulness.
Empirical study of eight LLMs finds overuse of popular libraries like NumPy in up to 45% of unnecessary cases and strong default preference for Python even when suboptimal.
Pretraining data determines loss-to-loss scaling laws in LLMs, while model size, optimization, tokenizer, and architecture have limited impact.
Single-seed CRPS estimates in limited-data BDL show high variance and peaks for heteroscedastic methods, with local variance correlating above 0.96 to single-seed error.
