A Cognitive Paradigm Approach to Probe the Perception-Reasoning Interface in VLMs
Mohit Vaishnav, Tanel Tammet
A fundamental challenge in artificial intelligence involves understanding the cognitive mechanisms underlying visual reasoning in sophisticated models like Vision-Language Models (…
SmolVLM: Redefining small and efficient multimodal models
Andrés Marafioti, Orr Zohar, Miquel Farré +14
Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) deliver exceptional performance but require significant computational resources, limiting their deployment on mobile and edge devices. Smaller V…
SmolLM2: When Smol Goes Big -- Data-Centric Training of a Small Language Model
Loubna Ben Allal, Anton Lozhkov, Elie Bakouch +19
While large language models have facilitated breakthroughs in many applications of artificial intelligence, their inherent largeness makes them computationally expensive and challe…
The FineWeb Datasets: Decanting the Web for the Finest Text Data at Scale
Guilherme Penedo, Hynek KydlÃÄek, Loubna Ben allal +5
The performance of a large language model (LLM) depends heavily on the quality and size of its pretraining dataset. However, the pretraining datasets for state-of-the-art open LLMs…
Can It Edit? Evaluating the Ability of Large Language Models to Follow Code Editing Instructions
Federico Cassano, Luisa Li, Akul Sethi +8
A significant amount of research is focused on developing and evaluating large language models for a variety of code synthesis tasks. These include synthesizing code from natural l…
