Reliable and Specialised LLMs (ReLLMS) Workshop

In recent years, Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionised fields like natural language processing, generating human-like text and solving complex tasks. However, the reliability of these models particularly in high-stakes or domain-specific application, remains a critical challenge.

This workshop will explore the unique issues related to the reliability of LLMs and delve into the potential of specialised LLMs tailored to specific industries or domains.

Participants will engage in discussions and hands-on activities designed to uncover the best practices for improving the robustness, trustworthiness, and domain-specific performance of LLMs.

• Reliability Challenges in LLMs: Biases, inaccuracies, adversarial attacks, and data limitations.
• Trustworthy AI and Privacy: How transparency can foster trust in LLM systems
• AI and Reliable LLM for detection of misinformation and disinformation 
• AI and Reliable LLM for breaking of echo chamber on social media and social networks.
• AI and Reliable LLM for fairness and social justice influenced by social opinions leaders. 
• Knowledge distillation for reliable AI and LLM
• Domain adaptation for reliable AI and LLM
• Specialised LLMs: How can we create domain-specific models that outperform general-purpose LLMs in certain areas?
• Testing and Evaluation: Approaches for measuring the reliability and effectiveness of specialised LLMs.
• Training and Fine-Tuning for Specific Applications: Healthcare, finance, law enforcement, etc.
• Ethical Concerns: Addressing transparency, accountability, and fairness in the use of LLMs in sensitive contexts.
