Data Efficient Sample Selection for In-Context Learning

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 6, 2026 · UTC

The In-context learning (ICL) paradigm aids large language models (LLMs) to adapt to new tasks without need for fine-tuning. However, selecting an optimal combination of demonstration examples from a large pool of example subsets is a challenging problem. Existing approaches for selection do not model the complex relationship between ICL samples and downstream LLM performance. They typically perform static task-level selection, choosing subsets once offline, which can fail to generalize to unseen queries. We introduce DearICL (Data Efficient Algorithm for Ranking) ICL samples, a new framework
