proposes a new benchmark for the evaluation of machine learning agents on machine learning engineering capabilities; includes 75 ML engineering-related competition from Kaggle testing on MLE skills such as training models, preparing datasets, and running experiments; OpenAI’s o1-preview with the AID
proposes a differential attention mechanism that amplifies attention to the relevant context while canceling noise; Differential Transformer outperforms Transformer when scaling up model size and training tokens; the authors claim that since this architecture gets less "distracted" by irrelevant con
proposes a novel RAG approach to deal with the imperfect retrieval augmentation and knowledge conflicts of LLMs; Astute RAG adaptively elicits essential information from LLMs' internal knowledge; then it iteratively consolidates internal and external knowledge with source awareness; Astute RAG is de
integrates tool knowledge directly into LLMs by representing tools as a unique token which allows the LLM to generate tool calls and arguments, enabling seamless tool invocation and language generation; experimental results with over 47,000 tools show that ToolGen achieves superior results in both t
Long-Context LLMs Meet RAG

finds that for many long-context LLMs, the quality of outputs declines as the number of passages increases; reports that the performance loss is due to retrieved hard negatives; they propose two ways to improve long-context LLM-based RAG: retrieval reordering and RAG-specific tuning with intermedia
tests several SoTA models on a benchmark created with symbolic templates that enable diverse mathematical problems; they find that LLMs exhibit variance when responding to variations of the same questions; the performance of all the models declines by adjusting the numerical values in the question;
a novel framework to enhance both communication efficiency and task effectiveness in LLM-based multi-agent systems through LLM training; proposes an iterative generate, rank, select, and train paradigm with a reward function to improve performance, token use, and communication efficiency; integrates
a new benchmark to rigorously assess agents built for scientific workflows; after testing it on open-weight and proprietary LLMs, the best-performing agent can only solve 32.4% of the tasks independently and 34.3% with expert-provided knowledge.
proposes an algorithm that approximates floating point multiplication with integer addition operations; it is less computationally intensive than 8-bit floating point but achieves higher precision; the authors report that applying the purposed L-Mul operation in tensor processing hardware can potent
