Erase-then-Delta Attention: Decoupling Erase and Write Addresses in Delta-Rule Linear Attention
Xiao Li, Chengruidong Zhang, Hao Luo +15
Delta-rule linear attention improves recurrent memory updates by correcting what is already stored at the current write address before writing new content. However, the active corr…
Mixture-of-Transformers: A Sparse and Scalable Architecture for Multi-Modal Foundation Models
Weixin Liang, Lili Yu, Liang Luo +8
The development of large language models (LLMs) has expanded to multi-modal systems capable of processing text, images, and speech within a unified framework. Training these models…
Nearest Neighbor Speculative Decoding for LLM Generation and Attribution
Minghan Li, Xilun Chen, Ari Holtzman +4
Large language models (LLMs) often hallucinate and lack the ability to provide attribution for their generations. Semi-parametric LMs, such as kNN-LM, approach these limitations by…
LMFusion: Adapting Pretrained Language Models for Multimodal Generation
Weijia Shi, Xiaochuang Han, Chunting Zhou +4
We present LMFusion, a framework for empowering pretrained text-only large language models (LLMs) with multimodal generative capabilities, enabling them to understand and generate…
Instruction-tuned Language Models are Better Knowledge Learners
Zhengbao Jiang, Zhiqing Sun, Weijia Shi +6
In order for large language model (LLM)-based assistants to effectively adapt to evolving information needs, it must be possible to update their factual knowledge through continued…
RA-DIT: Retrieval-Augmented Dual Instruction Tuning
Xi Victoria Lin, Xilun Chen, Mingda Chen +9
Retrieval-augmented language models (RALMs) improve performance by accessing long-tail and up-to-date knowledge from external data stores, but are challenging to build. Existing ap…
