Diversity-Rewarded CFG Distillation
Geoffrey Cideron, Andrea Agostinelli, Johan Ferret +5
Generative models are transforming creative domains such as music generation, with inference-time strategies like Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG) playing a crucial role. However, CF…
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…
Assessing the Zero-Shot Capabilities of LLMs for Action Evaluation in RL
Eduardo Pignatelli, Johan Ferret, Tim Rockäschel +4
The temporal credit assignment problem is a central challenge in Reinforcement Learning (RL), concerned with attributing the appropriate influence to each actions in a trajectory f…
BOND: Aligning LLMs with Best-of-N Distillation
Pier Giuseppe Sessa, Robert Dadashi, Léonard Hussenot +17
Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) is a key driver of quality and safety in state-of-the-art large language models. Yet, a surprisingly simple and strong inference-t…
Conditional Language Policy: A General Framework for Steerable Multi-Objective Finetuning
Kaiwen Wang, Rahul Kidambi, Ryan Sullivan +17
Reward-based finetuning is crucial for aligning language policies with intended behaviors (e.g., creativity and safety). A key challenge is to develop steerable language models tha…
WARP: On the Benefits of Weight Averaged Rewarded Policies
Alexandre Ramé, Johan Ferret, Nino Vieillard +7
Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) aligns large language models (LLMs) by encouraging their generations to have high rewards, using a reward model trained on human p…
Gemma: Open Models Based on Gemini Research and Technology
Gemma Team, Thomas Mesnard, Cassidy Hardin +105
This work introduces Gemma, a family of lightweight, state-of-the art open models built from the research and technology used to create Gemini models. Gemma models demonstrate stro…
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…
Direct Language Model Alignment from Online AI Feedback
Shangmin Guo, Biao Zhang, Tianlin Liu +9
Direct alignment from preferences (DAP) methods, such as DPO, have recently emerged as efficient alternatives to reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), that do not requ…
WARM: On the Benefits of Weight Averaged Reward Models
Alexandre Ramé, Nino Vieillard, Léonard Hussenot +4
Aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences through reinforcement learning (RLHF) can lead to reward hacking, where LLMs exploit failures in the reward model (RM)…
