Meet ‘DRESS’: A Large Vision Language Model (LVLM) that Align and Interact with Humans via Natural Language Feedback
Researchers introduced DRESS, an LVLM trained with two types of Natural Language Feedback (critique and refinement) to better align with human values and improve interaction capabilities in multi-turn contexts. The approach uses conditional reinforcement learning and has shown improvements in alignment with human preferences based on the 3H criteria of helpfulness, honesty, and harmlessness. They…
