The Bias is in the Details: An Assessment of Cognitive Bias in LLMs
R. Alexander Knipper, Charles S. Knipper, Kaiqi Zhang +3
As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly embedded in real-world decision-making processes, it becomes crucial to examine the extent to which they exhibit cognitive biases.…
Phi-4-Mini Technical Report: Compact yet Powerful Multimodal Language Models via Mixture-of-LoRAs
Microsoft, :, Abdelrahman Abouelenin +73
We introduce Phi-4-Mini and Phi-4-Multimodal, compact yet highly capable language and multimodal models. Phi-4-Mini is a 3.8-billion-parameter language model trained on high-qualit…
On The Adaptation of Unlimiformer for Decoder-Only Transformers
Kian Ahrabian, Alon Benhaim, Barun Patra +3
One of the prominent issues stifling the current generation of large language models is their limited context length. Recent proprietary models such as GPT-4 and Claude 2 have intr…
POROver: Improving Safety and Reducing Overrefusal in Large Language Models with Overgeneration and Preference Optimization
Batuhan K. Karaman, Ishmam Zabir, Alon Benhaim +3
Achieving both high safety and high usefulness simultaneously in large language models has become a critical challenge in recent years.Models often exhibit unsafe behavior or adopt…
Scaling Laws for Multilingual Language Models
Yifei He, Alon Benhaim, Barun Patra +6
We propose a novel scaling law for general-purpose decoder-only language models (LMs) trained on multilingual data, tackling the problem of balancing languages during multilingual…
Scaling Optimal LR Across Token Horizons
Johan Bjorck, Alon Benhaim, Vishrav Chaudhary +2
State-of-the-art LLMs are powered by scaling -- scaling model size, dataset size and cluster size. It is economically infeasible to extensively tune hyperparameter for the largest…
A Practical Analysis of Human Alignment with *PO
Kian Ahrabian, Xihui Lin, Barun Patra +4
At the forefront of state-of-the-art human alignment methods are preference optimization methods (*PO). Prior research has often concentrated on identifying the best-performing met…
Phi-3 Technical Report: A Highly Capable Language Model Locally on Your Phone
Marah Abdin, Jyoti Aneja, Hany Awadalla +126
We introduce phi-3-mini, a 3.8 billion parameter language model trained on 3.3 trillion tokens, whose overall performance, as measured by both academic benchmarks and internal test…
A Length-Extrapolatable Transformer
Yutao Sun, Li Dong, Barun Patra +6
Position modeling plays a critical role in Transformers. In this paper, we focus on length extrapolation, i.e., training on short texts while evaluating longer sequences. We define…
TorchScale: Transformers at Scale
Shuming Ma, Hongyu Wang, Shaohan Huang +8
Large Transformers have achieved state-of-the-art performance across many tasks. Most open-source libraries on scaling Transformers focus on improving training or inference with be…
Foundation Transformers
Hongyu Wang, Shuming Ma, Shaohan Huang +12
A big convergence of model architectures across language, vision, speech, and multimodal is emerging. However, under the same name "Transformers", the above areas use different imp…
Scaling Blockchains: Can Committee-Based Consensus Help?
Alon Benhaim, Brett Hemenway Falk, Gerry Tsoukalas
In the high-stakes race to develop more scalable blockchains, some platforms (Binance, Cosmos, EOS, TRON, etc.) have adopted committee-based consensus (CBC) protocols, whereby the…
