arXiv:2512.12870v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Active Learning (AL) is commonly used in applications where labeling data is expensive or time-consuming. In practice, however, labels are of...
arXiv:2603. 09692v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) has become the standard for aligning Large Language Models (LLMs), yet its efficacy is bottlenecked by the high cost of acquiring preference data, especially in low-resource and expert domains.
The paper introduces KENDO, a unified framework that combines Ensemble Gaussian Processes with disagreement‑aware acquisition strategies to address hyperparameter selection in Bayesian optimization and active learning. By replacing costly hyperparameter sampling with a kernel ensemble and adaptive Bayesian weighting, KENDO‑BO and KENDO‑AL provide self‑correcting mechanisms tailored to their respective tasks. Experiments on synthetic and real‑world benchmarks show that KENDO‑BO matches or outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods while cutting computational cost up to fivefold, and KENDO‑AL delivers better predictive calibration with up to 27‑times speedup compared to MCMC‑based baselines.
arXiv:2604. 06614v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Prompt learning has gained significant attention as a parameter-efficient approach for adapting large pre-trained vision-language models to downstream tasks.
arXiv:2606. 07630v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world datasets across image and text domains are often characterized by skewed class distributions and noisy annotations, which jointly degrade model performance, particularly on minority classes.
arXiv:2606. 07910v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The challenge with active learning algorithms is the uncertainty of the statistical distribution of unlabeled data, making it difficult to choose the best hand-crafted strategy.
