SURGELLM: Rethinking Multi-Task Evaluation through Task-Aware Feature Gating with Class-Balanced Normalization

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 24259v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fine-tuned encoders deployed across heterogeneous NLP tasks face three compounding problems: mismatched inductive biases, class-imbalance corruption of feature statistics, and no mechanism to condition attention on external lexical knowledge.

UNMASK: Discovering and Causally Verifying Spurious Shortcuts in Text Classifiers

arXiv:2608. 09209v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural language models trained on large crowdsourced corpora frequently exploit spurious surface patterns tied to target labels without true linguistic or causal relevance, boosting benchmark performance while failing on adversarial or out-of-distribution inputs.

Explainable Token-level Noise Filtering for LLM Fine-tuning Datasets

The paper introduces XTF, an explainable token‑level noise filtering framework for fine‑tuning large language models. XTF breaks down token contributions into reasoning importance, knowledge novelty, and task relevance, scores them, and masks gradients of noisy tokens to improve fine‑tuning. Experiments on math, code, and medicine tasks across seven LLMs show up to a 13.7% performance boost over standard fine‑tuning.
