Sequence-level Large Language Model Training with Contrastive Preference Optimization

Zhili Feng, Dhananjay Ram, Cole Hawkins +3

The next token prediction loss is the dominant self-supervised training objective for large language models and has achieved promising results in a variety of downstream tasks. How…

Michelangelo: Long Context Evaluations Beyond Haystacks via Latent Structure Queries

Kiran Vodrahalli, Santiago Ontanon, Nilesh Tripuraneni +21

We introduce Michelangelo: a minimal, synthetic, and unleaked long-context reasoning evaluation for large language models which is also easy to automatically score. This evaluation…

Accelerating Large Language Model Decoding with Speculative Sampling

Charlie Chen, Sebastian Borgeaud, Geoffrey Irving +3

We present speculative sampling, an algorithm for accelerating transformer decoding by enabling the generation of multiple tokens from each transformer call. Our algorithm relies o…

Improving language models by retrieving from trillions of tokens

Sebastian Borgeaud, Arthur Mensch, Jordan Hoffmann +25

We enhance auto-regressive language models by conditioning on document chunks retrieved from a large corpus, based on local similarity with preceding tokens. With a trillion to…

Machine Translation Decoding beyond Beam Search

Rémi Leblond, Jean-Baptiste Alayrac, Laurent Sifre +5

Beam search is the go-to method for decoding auto-regressive machine translation models. While it yields consistent improvements in terms of BLEU, it is only concerned with finding…
