The paper derives a Θ(1/√(n log n)) hypothesis testing rate under strategic annotator behavior and shows that high-certainty, format-similar golden questions better reveal annotation quality than standard checks.
Characterizes spurious correlation mechanisms in preference optimization via mean spurious bias and causal-spurious correlation leakage, demonstrates irreducible vulnerability to distribution shift, and introduces tie training as selective mitigation with validation on log-linear models and empirica
MSD enables cross-lingual safety transfer in LLMs via self-distillation with Dual-Perspective Safety Weighting, improving safety in low-resource languages without target response data.
A novel robust asynchronous Q-learning algorithm achieves finite-time convergence rates that match clean-data bounds up to an additive term proportional to the corruption fraction, with a matching information-theoretic lower bound.
Develops self-consistency monitoring for preference annotators and derives sample-complexity bounds showing linear contracts achieve near-ideal performance faster than binary ones under continuous actions.
Mixed Preference Optimization with the MMPR dataset boosts multimodal CoT reasoning, lifting InternVL2-8B to 67.0 accuracy on MathVista (+8.7 points) and matching the 76B model.
TPMM-DPO applies trajectory-aware learned-weight merging of prior policy models to stabilize iterative DPO against preference noise accumulation.
Introduces a latent user quality model and EM algorithm to infer and filter noisy user-provided pairwise preferences for improved LLM alignment.
A survey-style reference book mapping the full agentic-AI stack from transformer internals to production deployment, with no new research result.
