Abstract

Self-learning prompt optimization in large language models (LLMs) is done by integration of reinforcement learning (RL) with diffusion-based generative models which is introduced as an advanced framework called SmartPrompt. The objective of this paper is to dive deep into the proposed methodology that refines input prompts dynamically through policy gradient updates in RL and optimize them for coherence, factual accuracy, and contextual appropriateness.
