🚨XLLM-Reason-Plan Workshop is happening right now at @COLM_conf ! Join us at 520F🙌

@DakingRai is one of my best. Highly recommend for any team recruiting for LLM Interp/reasoning/controllability/etc. He plans to graduate in a year or so. Go meet him at the poster session or msg him for a chat directly! Exhibit Hall C,D,E #3815 Thu 4 Dec 4:30 p.m. PST — 7:30 p.m. PST

(1/3) Started this as a side project on a whim and had fun presenting it at the COLM 2025 XLLM-Reason-Plan Workshop recently. @XllmReasonPlan Built a small dataset of rebus puzzles to see how VLMs reason through visual wordplay. Dataset: huggingface.co/datasets/pmovv…

We are very honored to receive the Best Paper Award! Reviewers’s comments are very insightful! We really appreciate such valuable recognition from the workshop committee!
