Training LLMs over Neurally Compressed Text
Brian Lester, Jaehoon Lee, Alex Alemi +4
In this paper, we explore the idea of training large language models (LLMs) over highly compressed text. While standard subword tokenizers compress text by a small factor, neural t…

Scaling Exponents Across Parameterizations and Optimizers
Katie Everett, Lechao Xiao, Mitchell Wortsman +8
Robust and effective scaling of models from small to large width typically requires the precise adjustment of many algorithmic and architectural details, such as parameterization a…

Beyond Human Data: Scaling Self-Training for Problem-Solving with Language Models
Avi Singh, John D. Co-Reyes, Rishabh Agarwal +38
Fine-tuning language models~(LMs) on human-generated data remains a prevalent practice. However, the performance of such models is often limited by the quantity and diversity of hi…
