💡𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤: Different from existing single-turn math QA datasets, MathChat is the first benchmark focusing on multi-turn conversations about math. 🔔Existing LLMs exhibit a significant decline in math reasoning ability after multi-turn conversations!

@nembal I think mainly due to the imbalance in the language distribution in the pre-training corpus. Knowledge embeddings aren't as well connected across different languages. I remember when I studied abroad, it took me longer to learn a new concept compared to taking a similar class

We also present a novel clustering-based prompting approach to generate diverse contextual documents that increases the likelihood of generating a correct answer with more generations. This approach can significantly improve performance on downstream tasks. (3/5)

We propose a novel generate-then-read pipeline for solving open-domain QA tasks, i.e., replacing the process of retrieving contextual documents from large-scale corpora such as Wikipedia by prompting a large language model to generate relevant contextual documents. (2/5)
