Self-Generated Critiques Boost Reward Modeling for Language Models
Yue Yu, Zhengxing Chen, Aston Zhang +10
Reward modeling is crucial for aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences, especially in reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF). However, current rewar…
The Llama 3 Herd of Models
Aaron Grattafiori, Abhimanyu Dubey, Abhinav Jauhri +556
Modern artificial intelligence (AI) systems are powered by foundation models. This paper presents a new set of foundation models, called Llama 3. It is a herd of language models th…
DataComp-LM: In search of the next generation of training sets for language models
Jeffrey Li, Alex Fang, Georgios Smyrnis +56
We introduce DataComp for Language Models (DCLM), a testbed for controlled dataset experiments with the goal of improving language models. As part of DCLM, we provide a standardize…
Language models scale reliably with over-training and on downstream tasks
Samir Yitzhak Gadre, Georgios Smyrnis, Vaishaal Shankar +22
Scaling laws are useful guides for derisking expensive training runs, as they predict performance of large models using cheaper, small-scale experiments. However, there remain gaps…
LESS: Selecting Influential Data for Targeted Instruction Tuning
Mengzhou Xia, Sadhika Malladi, Suchin Gururangan +2
Instruction tuning has unlocked powerful capabilities in large language models (LLMs), effectively using combined datasets to develop generalpurpose chatbots. However, real-world a…
Breaking the Curse of Multilinguality with Cross-lingual Expert Language Models
Terra Blevins, Tomasz Limisiewicz, Suchin Gururangan +4
Despite their popularity in non-English NLP, multilingual language models often underperform monolingual ones due to inter-language competition for model parameters. We propose Cro…
AboutMe: Using Self-Descriptions in Webpages to Document the Effects of English Pretraining Data Filters
Li Lucy, Suchin Gururangan, Luca Soldaini +4
Large language models' (LLMs) abilities are drawn from their pretraining data, and model development begins with data curation. However, decisions around what data is retained or r…
