AdaBoN: Adaptive Best-of-N Alignment

Researchers propose AdaBoN, an adaptive Best-of-N alignment method that improves computational efficiency in language model alignment by allocating inference-time compute based on prompt difficulty. The two-stage algorithm outperforms uniform allocation strategies while using 20% less computational budget.

Revisiting the (Sub)Optimality of Best-of-N for Inference-Time Alignment

Researchers revisited Best-of-N (BoN) sampling for AI alignment and found it's actually optimal when evaluated using win-rate metrics rather than expected true reward. They propose a variant that eliminates reward-hacking vulnerabilities while maintaining optimal performance.
