Pairwise Preference Llm As Judge
However, building a benchmark for LLM-generated web apps remains challenging due to the need for real-world user requirements, generalizable evaluation metrics without relying on ground-truth implementations or test cases, and interpretable…
- GIFT: Group-Relative Implicit Fine-Tuning Integrates GRPO with DPO and UNA
Zhichao Wang · Oct 27, 2025 · Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference Automatic Metrics
This paper proposes Group-relative Implicit Fine-Tuning (GIFT), a reinforcement learning framework for aligning large language models (LLMs) that unifies on-policy optimization with implicit preference learning.
- Brief Is Better: Non-Monotonic Chain-of-Thought Budget Effects in Function-Calling Language Agents
Xuan Qi · Apr 2, 2026 · Citations: 0
Automatic Metrics
Chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning is widely assumed to improve agent performance, but the relationship between reasoning length and accuracy in structured tool-use settings remains poorly understood.
- PIKA: Expert-Level Synthetic Datasets for Post-Training Alignment from Scratch
Shangjian Yin, Shining Liang, Wenbiao Ding, Yuli Qian, Zhouxing Shi · Oct 8, 2025 · Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference
Despite its small size, fine-tuning Llama-3-8B-Base on PiKa-SFT even outperforms the official Llama-3-8B-Instruct model trained on over 10M proprietary examples on widely used benchmarks such as AlpacaEval 2.0 and Arena-Hard.
- Revisiting Self-Play Preference Optimization: On the Role of Prompt Difficulty
Yao Xiao, Jung-jae Kim, Roy Ka-wei Lee, Lidong Bing · Oct 7, 2025 · Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference
Self-play preference optimization has emerged as a prominent paradigm for aligning large language models (LLMs).
- Evaluation of Large Language Models via Coupled Token Generation
Nina Corvelo Benz, Stratis Tsirtsis, Eleni Straitouri, Ivi Chatzi, Ander Artola Velasco · Feb 3, 2025 · Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference
In this work, we argue that the evaluation and ranking of large language models should control for the randomization underpinning their functioning.
- SkillX: Automatically Constructing Skill Knowledge Bases for Agents
Chenxi Wang, Zhuoyun Yu, Xin Xie, Wuguannan Yao, Runnan Fang · Apr 6, 2026 · Citations: 0
Automatic Metrics
Learning from experience is critical for building capable large language model (LLM) agents, yet prevailing self-evolving paradigms remain inefficient: agents learn in isolation, repeatedly rediscover similar behaviors from limited…
- The Bitter Lesson of Diffusion Language Models for Agentic Workflows: A Comprehensive Reality Check
Qingyu Lu, Liang Ding, Kanjian Zhang, Jinxia Zhang, Dacheng Tao · Jan 19, 2026 · Citations: 0
Automatic Metrics
In this work, we present a comprehensive evaluation of dLLMs (e.g., LLaDA, Dream) across two distinct agentic paradigms: Embodied Agents (requiring long-horizon planning) and Tool-Calling Agents (requiring precise formatting).
- Failure Makes the Agent Stronger: Enhancing Accuracy through Structured Reflection for Reliable Tool Interactions
Junhao Su, Yuanliang Wan, Junwei Yang, Hengyu Shi, Tianyang Han · Sep 23, 2025 · Citations: 0
Automatic Metrics
The agent produces a short yet precise reflection: it diagnoses the failure using evidence from the previous step and then proposes a correct, executable follow-up call.
- Examining Reasoning LLMs-as-Judges in Non-Verifiable LLM Post-Training
Yixin Liu, Yue Yu, DiJia Su, Sid Wang, Xuewei Wang · Mar 12, 2026 · Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference
Reasoning LLMs-as-Judges, which can benefit from inference-time scaling, provide a promising path for extending the success of reasoning models to non-verifiable domains where the output correctness/quality cannot be directly checked.
- Alignment through Meta-Weighted Online Sampling: Bridging the Gap between Data Generation and Preference Optimization
Junming Yang, Ning Xu, Biao Liu, Shiqi Qiao, Xin Geng · Sep 27, 2025 · Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference
To bridge this gap, we propose Meta-Weighted Adaptive Preference Optimization (MetaAPO), a novel framework that dynamically couples data generation with model training.

David Schlangen, Sherzod Hakimov, Chalamalasetti Kranti, Jonathan Jordan, Philipp Sadler · Jul 11, 2025 · Citations: 0
Pairwise Preference
There are currently two main paradigms for evaluating large language models (LLMs), reference-based evaluation and preference-based evaluation.
