CT: Counterfactual Causal Reasoning for Sentiment Shifts in Social-Media Conversation Trees
S M Rafiuddin, Atriya Sen
Sentiment in social-media threads does not only vary across posts; it shifts as users react to claims, corrections, evidence, and hostility within a branching reply tree. We study…
Gemma 2: Improving Open Language Models at a Practical Size
Gemma Team, Morgane Riviere, Shreya Pathak +195
In this work, we introduce Gemma 2, a new addition to the Gemma family of lightweight, state-of-the-art open models, ranging in scale from 2 billion to 27 billion parameters. In th…
GenEARL: A Training-Free Generative Framework for Multimodal Event Argument Role Labeling
Hritik Bansal, Po-Nien Kung, P. Jeffrey Brantingham +2
Multimodal event argument role labeling (EARL), a task that assigns a role for each event participant (object) in an image is a complex challenge. It requires reasoning over the en…
RecurrentGemma: Moving Past Transformers for Efficient Open Language Models
Aleksandar Botev, Soham De, Samuel L Smith +59
We introduce RecurrentGemma, a family of open language models which uses Google's novel Griffin architecture. Griffin combines linear recurrences with local attention to achieve ex…
Deep Transformers without Shortcuts: Modifying Self-attention for Faithful Signal Propagation
Bobby He, James Martens, Guodong Zhang +4
Skip connections and normalisation layers form two standard architectural components that are ubiquitous for the training of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), but whose precise roles ar…
Spatial Functa: Scaling Functa to ImageNet Classification and Generation
Matthias Bauer, Emilien Dupont, Andy Brock +3
Neural fields, also known as implicit neural representations, have emerged as a powerful means to represent complex signals of various modalities. Based on this Dupont et al. (2022…
Flamingo: a Visual Language Model for Few-Shot Learning
Jean-Baptiste Alayrac, Jeff Donahue, Pauline Luc +24
Building models that can be rapidly adapted to novel tasks using only a handful of annotated examples is an open challenge for multimodal machine learning research. We introduce Fl…
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…
TF-Replicator: Distributed Machine Learning for Researchers
Peter Buchlovsky, David Budden, Dominik Grewe +9
We describe TF-Replicator, a framework for distributed machine learning designed for DeepMind researchers and implemented as an abstraction over TensorFlow. TF-Replicator simplifie…
