1.1 Background: What is New with o1

Background: What is New with OpenAI o1 & LLMs Built on Transformer Architecture

OpenAI o1 & Chain-of-Thought Reasoning: a recent advancement in large language models (LLMs)
Based on Transformer architecture, which has evolved from early work like BERT and GPT to more advanced models such as GPT-3 and GPT-4
Shown significant proficiency in understanding context, generating human-like text, and performing complex reasoning tasks [91, 217, 215, 101, 111, 93, 51, 213, 70, 107, 182, 167, 106, 169]
Chain-of-Thought Reasoning: a recent advancement in LLMs that enables models to break down complex problems into intermediate steps, mirroring human-like problem solving
Enhances performance on tasks requiring multi-step reasoning or mathematical problem solving by generating a series of coherent thoughts leading to a conclusion
Compared to GPT-4, o1 explicitly incorporates chain-of-thought into its inference process, allowing it to "think before it answers" and produce more transparent explanations [129]

OpenAI o1 & Reinforcement Learning (RLHF)

Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF): a powerful technique that combines reinforcement learning principles with human preferences to fine-tune models
Involves supervised fine-tuning, reward modeling based on human preferences, and policy optimization through reinforcement learning [129]
OpenAI o1: employs advanced RLHF techniques which significantly evolve beyond traditional RLHF methods
Performs consistently better with more reinforcement learning (train-time compute) and more time spent thinking (test-time compute) [129]
Likely incorporates Chain-of-Thought reasoning into its reinforcement learning framework, allowing it to generate and evaluate multiple reasoning paths before producing a final output
Possibly implements a form of online learning or search that occurs at test time, refining reasoning strategies in real-time [129, 118]
Has mechanisms for self-reflection and improvement through a form of self-supervised learning, using the model's thoughts as training data for further enhancement [129, 118, 66]
Generates multiple candidate reasoning paths in parallel, which use reinforcement learning to score and select the most promising paths, similar to the Quiet-STaR method [205, 118]
Focuses on enhancing the model's reasoning capabilities during inference rather than solely aligning its outputs with human preferences during training.

Table 4: Examples of o1-preview Responses on NLI Task:

Dataset	Premise / Context	Hypothesis
MNLI	Tom is the winner of a year's supply of Turtle Wax... The premise explicitly states that Tom is the winner, while the hypothesis claims there are no winners. These statements directly oppose each other, making the relationship a contradiction.	Contradiction
ANLI	Smaller catalogers have been hit especially hard by the increase in postage rates and paper prices... The premise does not explicitly mention bigger catalogers, but "especially" suggests a comparison, indicating smaller catalogers are hit harder than their larger counterparts. Therefore, the premise entails the hypothesis.	Entailment
MedNLI	EKG showed T-wave depression in V3-5, with no prior EKG for comparison... A normal EKG would not show such abnormalities. The hypothesis directly contradicts the information provided in the premise.	Contradiction
RadQNLI	Heart size is probably normal, but the cardiac silhouette is partially obscured by a moderate left pleural effusion... Yes, the context sentence contains the answer to the question about unilateral or bilateral pleural effusion.	Entailment if "Yes", Contradiction if "No"

Instructions for QNLI Task:

Given a premise sentence and a hypothesis sentence, predict whether the premise entails the hypothesis (entailment), contradicts the hypothesis (contradiction), or neither (neutral).
For QNLI task, determine whether the context sentence contains the answer to the question.

4.6 Quantitative Investing

ARIMA Model:

AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model: statistical method for analyzing and forecasting time series data
Components: AR, I, MA
1. AutoRegressive (AR) Component (p):
  - Refers to relationship between observation and lagged observations
  - Captures momentum or trends in data by regressing variable on own previous values
2. Integrated (I) Component (d):
  - Represents number of times data have been differenced to achieve stationarity
  - Eliminates non-stationarity (trends or seasonality) through differencing
3. Moving Average (MA) Component (q):
  - Shows relationship between observation and residual errors from moving average model applied to lagged observations
  - Accounts for shocks or random fluctuations in data
ARIMA models combine AR and MA components with differencing to capture trends and seasonality in stock data for forecasting

Autocorrelation:

Definition: correlation of a time series with its own past and future values (also known as serial correlation)
Measures similarity between observations based on time lag between them

Role of Autocorrelation:

Identification of Patterns:
- Trend Detection: Positive autocorrelation at low lags may indicate trend in data
- Seasonality Recognition: Significant autocorrelations at specific lags can reveal seasonal patterns
Model Selection and Specification:
ARIMA Models:

In more complex scenarios, model struggles with contextual nuances and precision.

Translation Breakdown:

First Scenario (Accurate Translation):

Naanitsutsa: "the boys"
Anitsutsa: "boys"
Sgwatlesdi: "ball"
Dananelohvʔsga: "they are playing"

Second Scenario (Misinterpreted Translation):

Tsitaga: "chickens"
Ani-tsvyam: "foxes" (plural prefix for animate beings)

Original text: "I met my best friend in the middle school, but she left our school in the second year and went to New Zealand . We had many great memories together and we spent our most of time together in school as well. We have spent a lot of precious time together, remembering when we were running in the rain and laughing crazy at the same time. We used to like to go to the garden and the sidewalks around the school to appreciate different plants after we finished the school . And we liked to sing out loud in the hallway and discovered the secret tunnels in our school . So it was really hard for me to accept the fact that she has to leave the school and I have to deal with my school life without her. I remembered I feel sad every time I go pass by the places that we were used like to go in school . Sometimes the memories that I had with her would keep flashing back when I was walking around the school, then I would stop walking and started to think about her. Colors began to fade away in the days without her, but I still need to keep moving on."
o1-preview suggestion: "I met my best friend in middle school, but she left during the second year and moved to New Zealand. During our time together, we created many great memories and spent most of our time together at school. We shared precious moments like running in the rain and laughing loudly.

It was really hard for me to accept her leaving and face my school life without her. I remember feeling sad every time I passed places we used to go to together, but memories of her kept flashing back. Colors faded away in the days without her, yet I knew I needed to keep moving on."
