A new research paper published on arXiv investigates the generalization capabilities of large language models (LLMs) across varying task difficulties. The study, which utilized Item Response Theory (IRT) and LLM outputs to objectively rate example difficulty, found that cross-difficulty generalization is often limited. Training on either easy or hard data does not consistently improve performance across the full spectrum of difficulties, highlighting the necessity of diverse difficulty levels in both training and evaluation datasets for LLMs. AI
IMPACT Highlights the need for diverse training data to improve LLM performance across various task complexities.
