Treasure Hunt: Real-time Targeting of the Long Tail using Training-Time Markers
Daniel D'souza, Julia Kreutzer, Adrien Morisot +2
One of the most profound challenges of modern machine learning is performing well on the long-tail of rare and underrepresented features. Large general-purpose models are trained f…
Command A: An Enterprise-Ready Large Language Model
Team Cohere, :, Aakanksha +227
In this report we describe the development of Command A, a powerful large language model purpose-built to excel at real-world enterprise use cases. Command A is an agent-optimised…
Multilingual Machine Translation with Open Large Language Models at Practical Scale: An Empirical Study
Menglong Cui, Pengzhi Gao, Wei Liu +2
Large language models (LLMs) have shown continuously improving multilingual capabilities, and even small-scale open-source models have demonstrated rapid performance enhancement. I…
Aya Expanse: Combining Research Breakthroughs for a New Multilingual Frontier
John Dang, Shivalika Singh, Daniel D'souza +42
We introduce the Aya Expanse model family, a new generation of 8B and 32B parameter multilingual language models, aiming to address the critical challenge of developing highly perf…
To Code, or Not To Code? Exploring Impact of Code in Pre-training
Viraat Aryabumi, Yixuan Su, Raymond Ma +6
Including code in the pre-training data mixture, even for models not specifically designed for code, has become a common practice in LLMs pre-training. While there has been anecdot…
Prioritized Training on Points that are Learnable, Worth Learning, and Not Yet Learnt
Sören Mindermann, Jan Brauner, Muhammed Razzak +8
Training on web-scale data can take months. But most computation and time is wasted on redundant and noisy points that are already learnt or not learnable. To accelerate training,…
Mitigating harm in language models with conditional-likelihood filtration
Helen Ngo, Cooper Raterink, João G. M. Araújo +4
Language models trained on large-scale unfiltered datasets curated from the open web acquire systemic biases, prejudices, and harmful views from their training data. We present a m…
Prioritized training on points that are learnable, worth learning, and not yet learned (workshop version)
Sören Mindermann, Muhammed Razzak, Winnie Xu +7
We introduce Goldilocks Selection, a technique for faster model training which selects a sequence of training points that are "just right". We propose an information-theoretic acqu…
Add a SideNet to your MainNet
Adrien Morisot
As the performance and popularity of deep neural networks has increased, so too has their computational cost. There are many effective techniques for reducing a network's computati…
