Chasing Progress, Not Perfection: Revisiting Strategies for End-to-End LLM Plan Generation

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The capability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to plan remains a topic of debate. Some critics argue that strategies to boost LLMs' reasoning skills are ineffective in planning tasks, while others report strong outcomes merely from training models on a planning corpus. This study reassesses recent strategies by developing an end-to-end LLM planner and employing diverse metrics for a thorough evaluation. We find that merely fine-tuning LLMs on a corpus of planning instances does not lead to robust planning skills, as indicated by poor performance on out-of-distribution test sets. At the same time, we find that various strategies, including Chain-of-Thought, do enhance the probability of a plan being executable. This indicates progress towards better plan quality, despite not directly enhancing the final validity rate. Among the strategies we evaluated, reinforcement learning with our novel `Longest Contiguous Common Subsequence' reward emerged as the most effective, contributing to both plan validity and executability. Overall, our research addresses key misconceptions in the LLM-planning literature; we validate incremental progress in plan executability, although plan validity remains a challenge. Hence, future strategies should focus on both these aspects, drawing insights from our findings.


IoT with Machine Learning

#artificialintelligence

Machine learning is a subfield of computer science that evolved from the study of pattern recognition and computational learning theory in artificial intelligence. Machine learning is very useful in IoT since it can be used to learn hidden relationships in the Big Data which flows in the system and used to make real-time complex classifications for taking actions based on them. There are many machine learning packages such as Apache Spark, Mahout, and Weka, each with its advantages and disadvantages. This blog shows how to use the easy-to-use powerful Java Statistical Analysis Tool library (JSAT) for a courier parcel pick up website app integrated with RAPIFIRE. The example illustrates how a user can get the estimated waiting time of a courier parcel pick up based on the GPS position of trucks. The machine learning component is used to get the waiting time classification ( 15min, 15min-30min, 30min) based on the input of the truck's sensor data of distance and average speed.


The Role of Frame-Based Knowledge Representation in Reasoning

Classics

A frame-based representation facility contributes to a knowledge system's A fundamental observation arising from work in artificial intelligence (AI) has been that expertise in a task domain requires substantial knowledge about that domain. Domain knowledge typically has many forms, including descriptive definitions of domain-specific terms (e.g., "power plant," "pump, " "flow," "pressure"), descriptions of individual domain objects and their relationships to each other ('e.g.,"Pl is a pump whose pressure is 230 psi"), and criteria for making decisions (e.g., "If the feedwater pump pressure exceeds 400 psi, then close the pump's input value"). Because of this emphasis on representatbon and domain knowledge, systems that use AI techniqules to achieve expertise are often referred to as knowledge-based systems, or simply as knowledge systems. In order for a knowledge system to use domainspecific knowledge, it must have a language for representing that knowledge. The predicate calculus was appealing because of its very general expressive power and well-defined se-. However, because the language constructs are very fine grained and do not provide adequate facilities for defining more complex constructs, domain experts have difficulty using the predicate calculus or understanding knowledge expressed in it.
