KV-streams for Efficient Compaction in Agentic Reinforcement Learning
Emiliano Penaloza, Dane Malenfant, Dheeraj Vattikonda +15
Scaling the horizon of agentic LLMs is bottlenecked by the need to fit ever longer context traces in GPU memory. Context compaction has been the most popular mechanism to alleviate…
Privileged Information Distillation for Language Models
Emiliano Penaloza, Dheeraj Vattikonda, Nicolas Gontier +3
Training-time privileged information (PI) can enable language models to succeed on tasks they would otherwise fail, making it a powerful tool for reinforcement learning in hard, lo…
Towards Modular LLMs by Building and Reusing a Library of LoRAs
Oleksiy Ostapenko, Zhan Su, Edoardo Maria Ponti +5
The growing number of parameter-efficient adaptations of a base large language model (LLM) calls for studying whether we can reuse such trained adapters to improve performance for…
Towards Compute-Optimal Transfer Learning
Massimo Caccia, Alexandre Galashov, Arthur Douillard +6
The field of transfer learning is undergoing a significant shift with the introduction of large pretrained models which have demonstrated strong adaptability to a variety of downst…
Continual Learning with Foundation Models: An Empirical Study of Latent Replay
Oleksiy Ostapenko, Timothee Lesort, Pau Rodríguez +4
Rapid development of large-scale pre-training has resulted in foundation models that can act as effective feature extractors on a variety of downstream tasks and domains. Motivated…
Challenging Common Assumptions about Catastrophic Forgetting
Timothée Lesort, Oleksiy Ostapenko, Diganta Misra +4
Building learning agents that can progressively learn and accumulate knowledge is the core goal of the continual learning (CL) research field. Unfortunately, training a model on ne…
Task-Agnostic Continual Reinforcement Learning: Gaining Insights and Overcoming Challenges
Massimo Caccia, Jonas Mueller, Taesup Kim +2
Continual learning (CL) enables the development of models and agents that learn from a sequence of tasks while addressing the limitations of standard deep learning approaches, such…
Continual Learning via Local Module Composition
Oleksiy Ostapenko, Pau Rodriguez, Massimo Caccia +1
Modularity is a compelling solution to continual learning (CL), the problem of modeling sequences of related tasks. Learning and then composing modules to solve different tasks pro…
Sequoia: A Software Framework to Unify Continual Learning Research
Fabrice Normandin, Florian Golemo, Oleksiy Ostapenko +10
The field of Continual Learning (CL) seeks to develop algorithms that accumulate knowledge and skills over time through interaction with non-stationary environments. In practice, a…
Beyond Trivial Counterfactual Explanations with Diverse Valuable Explanations
Pau Rodriguez, Massimo Caccia, Alexandre Lacoste +4
Explainability for machine learning models has gained considerable attention within the research community given the importance of deploying more reliable machine-learning systems.…
Online Continual Learning with Maximally Interfered Retrieval
Rahaf Aljundi, Lucas Caccia, Eugene Belilovsky +4
Continual learning, the setting where a learning agent is faced with a never ending stream of data, continues to be a great challenge for modern machine learning systems. In partic…
