mSTEB: Massively Multilingual Evaluation of LLMs on Speech and Text Tasks
Large Language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive performance on a wide range of tasks, including in multimodal settings such as spe… (voir plus)ech. However, their evaluation is often limited to English and a few high-resource languages. For low-resource languages, there is no standardized evaluation benchmark. In this paper, we address this gap by introducing mSTEB, a new benchmark to evaluate the performance of LLMs on a wide range of tasks covering language identification, text classification, question answering, and translation tasks on both speech and text modalities. We evaluated the performance of leading LLMs such as Gemini 2.0 Flash and GPT-4o (Audio) and state-of-the-art open models such as Qwen 2 Audio and Gemma 3 27B. Our evaluation shows a wide gap in performance between high-resource and low-resource languages, especially for languages spoken in Africa and Americas/Oceania. Our findings show that more investment is needed to address their under-representation in LLMs coverage.
As AI systems become increasingly embedded in human decision-making process, aligning their behavior with human values is critical to ensuri… (voir plus)ng safe and trustworthy deployment. A central approach to AI Alignment called Imitation Learning (IL), trains a learner to directly mimic desirable human behaviors from expert demonstrations. However, standard IL methods assume that (1) experts act to optimize expected returns; (2) expert policies are Markovian. Both assumptions are inconsistent with empirical findings from behavioral economics, according to which humans are (1) risk-sensitive; and (2) make decisions based on past experience. In this work, we examine the implications of risk sensitivity for IL and show that standard approaches do not capture all optimal policies under risk-sensitive decision criteria. By characterizing these expert policies, we identify key limitations of existing IL algorithms in replicating expert performance in risk-sensitive settings. Our findings underscore the need for new IL frameworks that account for both risk-aware preferences and temporal dependencies to faithfully align AI behavior with human experts.
Large Language Models (LLMs) have become vital tools in software development tasks such as code generation, completion, and analysis. As the… (voir plus)ir integration into workflows deepens, ensuring robustness against vulnerabilities especially those triggered by diverse or adversarial inputs becomes increasingly important. Such vulnerabilities may lead to incorrect or insecure code generation when models encounter perturbed task descriptions, code, or comments. Prior research often overlooks the role of natural language in guiding code tasks. This study investigates how adversarial perturbations in natural language inputs including prompts, comments, and descriptions affect LLMs for Code (LLM4Code). It examines the effects of perturbations at the character, word, and sentence levels to identify the most impactful vulnerabilities. We analyzed multiple projects (e.g., ReCode, OpenAttack) and datasets (e.g., HumanEval, MBPP), establishing a taxonomy of adversarial attacks. The first dimension classifies the input type code, prompts, or comments while the second dimension focuses on granularity: character, word, or sentence-level changes. We adopted a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative performance metrics with qualitative vulnerability analysis. LLM4Code models show varying robustness across perturbation types. Sentence-level attacks were least effective, suggesting models are resilient to broader contextual changes. In contrast, word-level perturbations posed serious challenges, exposing semantic vulnerabilities. Character-level effects varied, showing model sensitivity to subtle syntactic deviations.Our study offers a structured framework for testing LLM4Code robustness and emphasizes the critical role of natural language in adversarial evaluation. Improving model resilience to semantic-level disruptions is essential for secure and reliable code-generation systems.
Large language models (LLMs) often struggle with context fidelity, producing inconsistent answers when responding to questions based on prov… (voir plus)ided information. Existing approaches either rely on expensive supervised fine-tuning to generate evidence post-answer or train models to perform web searches without necessarily improving utilization of the given context. We propose CARE, a novel native retrieval-augmented reasoning framework that teaches LLMs to explicitly integrate in-context evidence within their reasoning process with the model's own retrieval capabilities. Our method requires minimal labeled evidence data while significantly enhancing both retrieval accuracy and answer generation performance through strategically retrieved in-context tokens in the reasoning chain. Extensive experiments on multiple real-world and counterfactual QA benchmarks demonstrate that our approach substantially outperforms supervised fine-tuning, traditional retrieval-augmented generation methods, and external retrieval solutions. This work represents a fundamental advancement in making LLMs more accurate, reliable, and efficient for knowledge-intensive tasks.
Predicting the effect of unseen interventions is at the heart of many scientific endeavours. While causal discovery is often used to answer … (voir plus)these causal questions, it involves learning a full causal model, not tailored to the specific goal of predicting unseen interventions, and operates under stringent assumptions. We introduce a novel method based on meta-learning that predicts interventional effects without explicitly assuming a causal model. Our preliminary results on synthetic data show that it can provide good generalization to unseen interventions, and it even compares favorably to a causal discovery method. Our model-agnostic method opens up many avenues for future exploration, particularly for settings where causal discovery cannot be applied.
Multi-task reinforcement learning challenges agents to master diverse skills simultaneously, and Meta-World emerged as the gold standard ben… (voir plus)chmark for evaluating these algorithms. However, since the introduction of the Meta-World benchmark there have been numerous undocumented changes which inhibit fair comparison of multi-task and meta reinforcement learning algorithms. This work strives to disambiguate these results from the literature, while also producing an open-source version of Meta-World that has full reproducibility of past results.
