Semantic Parsing: Syntactic assurance to target sentence using LSTM Encoder CFG-Decoder

Abstract

Semantic parsing can be defined as the process of mapping natural language sentences into a machine interpretable, formal representation of its meaning. Semantic parsing using LSTM encoder-decoder neural networks have become promising approach. However, human automated translation of natural language does not provide grammaticality guarantees for the sentences generate such a guarantee is particularly important for practical cases where a data base query can cause critical errors if the sentence is ungrammatical. In this work, we propose an neural architecture called Encoder CFG-Decoder, whose output conforms to a given context-free grammar. Results are show for any implementation of such architecture display its correctness and providing benchmark accuracy levels better than the literature.

Are We Really Making Much Progress in Text Classification? A Comparative Review

We survey the literature on single-label, multi-label, and hierarchical text classification and provide a quantitative comparison of methods categorized into bag-of-words, sequence-based, and graph- or hierarchy-based approaches. Despite a recent surge in graph-based methods, they do not provide an improvement over fine-tuned transformer models on most evaluated datasets. Decoder-only generative language models show promise in few-shot in-context learning, but appear to lag behind fine-tuned language models when sufficient training data is available. The amount of training data needed for a fine-tuned language model to exceed the performance of a generative model is task-dependent. We further highlight the variance in reported numbers across the literature when applying the same model to the same dataset, which can be traced to the use of different hyperparameter values, such as the fine-tuning learning rate. For practitioners, we recommend using a fine-tuned language model when sufficient training data is available. Otherwise, a frozen generative model, enhanced by few-shot in-context learning or reasoning, is preferable.

Dynamic Optimizations of LLM Ensembles with Two-Stage Reinforcement Learning Agents

The advancement of LLMs and their accessibility have triggered renewed interest in multi-agent reinforcement learning as robust and adaptive frameworks for dynamically changing environments. This paper introduces \texttt{RL-Focal}, a two-stage RL agent framework that routes and ensembles LLMs. \textit{First}, we develop the Decider RL-agent, which learns to dynamically select an ensemble of small size ($m_i$) among $N$ LLMs ($m_i \ll N$) for incoming queries from a user-defined downstream task $i$, by maximizing both error-diversity and reasoning-performance of the selected ensemble through iterative updates of task-adaptive rewards and policy. \textit{Second}, to enable effective fusion of dynamically selected LLMs, we develop the stage-2 Fusion RL-agent, which learns to resolve reasoning conflicts from different LLMs and dynamically adapt to different ensemble teams composed by the Decider Agent for different downstream tasks. {\em Third}, we introduce the focal diversity metric to better model the error correlations among multiple LLMs further improving the generalization performance of the Decider Agent, which actively prunes the ensemble combinations. By focal diversity, we enhance performance across tasks by effectively promoting reward-aware and policy-adaptive ensemble selection and inference fusion. Extensive evaluations on five benchmarks show that RL-Focal achieves the performance improvement of 8.48\% with an ensemble of small size compared to the best individual LLM in a pool and offers stronger robustness.

TagPR: Tag-Guided Process Supervision for Personalization Reasoning in Large Language Models

Recent advancements have endowed Large Language Models with impressive general reasoning capabilities. However, these reasoning models often perform worse than non-reasoning models on personalization tasks. While some methods use outcome-based RL to improve personalization reasoning, they fail to supervise the reasoning process. As a result, models may reach correct answers through flawed reasoning chains, limiting further improvement. To address this, we propose TagPR, a novel framework that adds semantic tags to the reasoning process for step-by-step guidance. TagPR first automatically generates a structured, tagged dataset for Supervised Fine-Tuning. It then employs a multi-stage RL process guided by a composite reward signal, which integrates tag-based process supervision with a novel Personalization Reward Model with User Embeddings to achieve fine-grained alignment with user-specific logic. Extensive experiments on public LaMP, LongLaMP, PGraphRAG, and a self-constructed dataset demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art results, delivering an average improvement of 32.65% over the base model across all LaMP benchmark tasks. Our work demonstrates that tag-guided process supervision is an effective approach for personalization reasoning.
