Scaling Laws of Synthetic Data for Language Models
Zeyu Qin, Qingxiu Dong, Xingxing Zhang +10
Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong performance across diverse tasks, largely driven by high-quality web data used in pre-training. However, recent studies indicate this da…
WildLong: Synthesizing Realistic Long-Context Instruction Data at Scale
Jiaxi Li, Xingxing Zhang, Xun Wang +6
Large language models (LLMs) with extended context windows enable tasks requiring extensive information integration but are limited by the scarcity of high-quality, diverse dataset…
Bootstrap Your Own Context Length
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xingxing Zhang +2
We introduce a bootstrapping approach to train long-context language models by exploiting their short-context capabilities only. Our method utilizes a simple agent workflow to synt…
Synthetic Data (Almost) from Scratch: Generalized Instruction Tuning for Language Models
Haoran Li, Qingxiu Dong, Zhengyang Tang +17
We introduce Generalized Instruction Tuning (called GLAN), a general and scalable method for instruction tuning of Large Language Models (LLMs). Unlike prior work that relies on se…
Multilingual E5 Text Embeddings: A Technical Report
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +3
This technical report presents the training methodology and evaluation results of the open-source multilingual E5 text embedding models, released in mid-2023. Three embedding model…
Improving Text Embeddings with Large Language Models
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +3
In this paper, we introduce a novel and simple method for obtaining high-quality text embeddings using only synthetic data and less than 1k training steps. Unlike existing methods…
Text Embeddings by Weakly-Supervised Contrastive Pre-training
Liang Wang, Nan Yang, Xiaolong Huang +5
This paper presents E5, a family of state-of-the-art text embeddings that transfer well to a wide range of tasks. The model is trained in a contrastive manner with weak supervision…
