MLPs are Hebbians: Constructing Efficient Fact-Storing MLPs for Transformers

Roberto Garcia, Jerry Liu, Ronny Junkins +3

Large language models (LLMs) store factual knowledge in their parameters. While recent work has shown that this knowledge resides in MLP layers, existing constructive and mechanist…

Olmix: A Framework for Data Mixing Throughout LM Development

Mayee F. Chen, Tyler Murray, David Heineman +5

Data mixing -- determining the ratios of data from different domains -- is a first-order concern for training language models (LMs). While existing mixing methods show promise, the…

Constructing Efficient Fact-Storing MLPs for Transformers

Owen Dugan, Roberto Garcia, Ronny Junkins +5

The success of large language models (LLMs) can be attributed in part to their ability to efficiently store factual knowledge as key-value mappings within their MLP parameters. Rec…

Intelligence per Watt: Measuring Intelligence Efficiency of Local AI

Jon Saad-Falcon, Avanika Narayan, Hakki Orhun Akengin +12

Large language model (LLM) queries are predominantly processed by frontier models in centralized cloud infrastructure. Demand growth strains this paradigm faster than providers can…

Aioli: A Unified Optimization Framework for Language Model Data Mixing

Mayee F. Chen, Michael Y. Hu, Nicholas Lourie +2

Language model performance depends on identifying the optimal mixture of data groups to train on (e.g., law, code, math). Prior work has proposed a diverse set of methods to effici…

Automated Rewards via LLM-Generated Progress Functions

Vishnu Sarukkai, Brennan Shacklett, Zander Majercik +3

Large Language Models (LLMs) have the potential to automate reward engineering by leveraging their broad domain knowledge across various tasks. However, they often need many iterat…

Cookbook: A framework for improving LLM generative abilities via programmatic data generating templates

Avanika Narayan, Mayee F. Chen, Kush Bhatia +1

Fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) on instruction datasets is a common way to improve their generative capabilities. However, instruction datasets can be expensive and time-c…
