Sharing a little late update (before itβs no longer news): I wrapped up my PhD at the end of last year and recently joined @OpenAIβs reasoning team πβ¨!
π€ Q: How do you find low-quality data?
π‘ A: Corrupt the good ones and watch where they go!
Sharing this simple yet generalizable data pruning idea I worked on this summer at the ENLSP workshop #NeurIPS2023 as an *Oral* presentation!

π Two of my papers have been accepted this week at #ICLR2024 & #AISTATS!
Big thanks and congrats to co-authors @xxchenxx_ut & Eric Gan, mentors Atlas Wang & @gkdziugaite, and especially my advisor @baharanm! π
More details on both papers after the ICML deadline!
We released *DuoGuard*, a 0.5B multilingual guardrail model! Its two-player RL framework adversarially co-evolves a generator and classifier to generate safety data. DuoGuard offers fine-grained probabilities across 12 subcategories with customizable thresholds. Check it out! π₯³
1/ I'll be at #NeurIPS2024 presenting our work SmallToLarge (S2L): Data-efficient Fine-tuning of LLMs! π
Whatβs S2L? Itβs a scalable data selection method that trains a small proxy model to guide fine-tuning for larger models, reducing costs while preserving performance. π
Excited to share our #NeurIPS2023 paper tackling spurious correlations in machine learning! Grounded in theoretical analysis, our PDE algorithm improves efficiency and worst-group accuracy under group imbalances. Discover more in our code and project page!π
Codes and project page are released for our #NeurIPS23 paper on spurious correlations in robust learning! π

Key Insights:
π We discovered in theoretical analysis that spurious features overtake initial
Excited to introduce SecCodePLTπ‘οΈ: a unified platform for evaluating security risks in code generation AI! Since summer, weβve been building a comprehensive tool to assess AI models' potential for insecure coding and facilitating cyberattacks. π§΅1/π
Honored to have my work featured alongside others from our lab in the #ICML2024 tutorial on Foundations of Data-Efficient Learning! The tutorial was well-designed and comprehensive on theoretically grounded dataset curation techniques. Recording is out for anyone interested!π
π’Excited to share the recording of our #ICML2024 Tutorial on Foundations of Data-Efficient Learning: youtu.be/30VkdWuwmdA
Truly grateful to everyone who attended β it was incredible to see the enthusiasm for theoretically principled techniques for dataset curation!
ποΈWe are thrilled to announce that we will be presenting our latest paper with @besanushi @hmd_palangi @baharanm (arxiv.org/abs/2304.03916) at #ICML2023 ! π Join us as we share insights and solutions for β¨spurious correlations in vision-language modelsβ¨. (π§΅1/8)
Itβs been a new and exciting experience to be part of founding @VirtueAI_co! Iβve had the privilege of working with top minds in the fields β I'm incredibly grateful for this invaluable experience. Check out our website and blogs, and come hang out with us in SF this summer! π₯³π
π’Our (Hao Kang, @baharanm) paper (arxiv.org/abs/2306.01244) will appear at #ICML2023! Introducing CREST: the first coreset selection algorithm theoretically guaranteed to speed up training of deep neural networks!π(π§΅1/7)
Our finding shows longer code files are often lower quality, and pruning these files can significantly enhance performance. Excited to have contributed to this project led by @Aaditya6284, extending my internship work @AIatMeta! π Check out our paper π arxiv.org/abs/2407.00434
Long (code) files may not be as high quality as you thinkβ¦
Excited for our new work, "Brevity is the soul of wit: Pruning long files for code generation". We find that long code files are often low quality and show benefits from pruning such files for code gen.

Excited about training on synthetic data? Different stages of training might need different synthetic data! π§ π‘
Check out our #ICLR2024 paper on Progressive Dataset Distillation (PDDπ) at PS#2 Halle B#9! It tailors synthetic data to each training stage for better performance!
