Unified Audio Intelligence Without Regressing on Text Intelligence
Zhifeng Kong, Sang-gil Lee, Jaehyeon Kim +17
Audio intelligence involves understanding, reasoning about, and generating both audio and speech. In this work, we introduce Nemotron-Labs-Audex-30B-A3B (Audex), a unified audio-te…
Nemotron-Cascade 2: Post-Training LLMs with Cascade RL and Multi-Domain On-Policy Distillation
Zhuolin Yang, Zihan Liu, Yang Chen +14
We introduce Nemotron-Cascade 2, an open 30B MoE model with 3B activated parameters that delivers best-in-class reasoning and strong agentic capabilities. Despite its compact size,…
From 128K to 4M: Efficient Training of Ultra-Long Context Large Language Models
Chejian Xu, Wei Ping, Peng Xu +5
Long-context capabilities are essential for a wide range of applications, including document and video understanding, in-context learning, and inference-time scaling, all of which…
NVLM: Open Frontier-Class Multimodal LLMs
Wenliang Dai, Nayeon Lee, Boxin Wang +7
We introduce NVLM 1.0, a family of frontier-class multimodal large language models (LLMs) that achieve state-of-the-art results on vision-language tasks, rivaling the leading propr…
RankRAG: Unifying Context Ranking with Retrieval-Augmented Generation in LLMs
Yue Yu, Wei Ping, Zihan Liu +5
Large language models (LLMs) typically utilize the top-k contexts from a retriever in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). In this work, we propose a novel instruction fine-tuning…
InstructRetro: Instruction Tuning post Retrieval-Augmented Pretraining
Boxin Wang, Wei Ping, Lawrence McAfee +4
Pretraining auto-regressive large language models~(LLMs) with retrieval demonstrates better perplexity and factual accuracy by leveraging external databases. However, the size of e…
