Multimodal Unlearning Across Vision, Language, Video, and Audio: Survey of Methods, Datasets, and Benchmarks
Nobin Sarwar, Shubhashis Roy Dipta, Zheyuan Liu +1
With the growing adoption of VLMs, DMs, LLMs, and AFMs, these multimodal foundation models can inadvertently encode sensitive, copyrighted, biased, or unsafe cross-modal associatio…
Fluid Language Model Benchmarking
Valentin Hofmann, David Heineman, Ian Magnusson +7
Language model (LM) benchmarking faces several challenges: comprehensive evaluations are costly, benchmarks often fail to measure the intended capabilities, and evaluation quality…
Establishing Task Scaling Laws via Compute-Efficient Model Ladders
Akshita Bhagia, Jiacheng Liu, Alexander Wettig +9
We develop task scaling laws and model ladders to predict the individual task performance of pretrained language models (LMs) in the overtrained setting. Standard power laws for la…
Signal and Noise: A Framework for Reducing Uncertainty in Language Model Evaluation
David Heineman, Valentin Hofmann, Ian Magnusson +5
Developing large language models is expensive and involves making decisions with small experiments, typically by evaluating on large, multi-task evaluation suites. In this work, we…
DataDecide: How to Predict Best Pretraining Data with Small Experiments
Ian Magnusson, Nguyen Tai, Ben Bogin +10
Because large language models are expensive to pretrain on different datasets, using smaller-scale experiments to decide on data is crucial for reducing costs. Which benchmarks and…
Holistically Evaluating the Environmental Impact of Creating Language Models
Jacob Morrison, Clara Na, Jared Fernandez +3
As the performance of artificial intelligence systems has dramatically increased, so too has the environmental impact of creating these systems. While many model developers release…
