Apollo Restore: A Foundation LLM for Historical Greek Optimized for Fill-in-the-Middle Restoration of Ancient Greek Texts

Hope McGovern, Anna Dolganov, Samuel Belkadi +3

We present Apollo Restore, a 24-billion-parameter large language model for restoring lacunae---physical gaps---in fragmentary Ancient Greek texts. Fine-tuned from Mistral Small wit…

Shieldstral

Antonia Calvi, Avinash Sooriyarachchi, Giada Pistilli +273

We introduce Shieldstral, a 3B-parameter policy-adaptive multimodal safety classifier that matches or outperforms models nearly 7 its size on text safety benchmarks and set…

Voxtral TTS

Mistral-AI, :, Alexander H. Liu +186

We introduce Voxtral TTS, an expressive multilingual text-to-speech model that generates natural speech from as little as 3 seconds of reference audio. Voxtral TTS adopts a hybrid…

Multi-scale Autoregressive Models are Laplacian, Discrete, and Latent Diffusion Models in Disguise

Steve Hong, Samuel Belkadi

We reinterpret Visual Autoregressive (VAR) models as iterative refinement models to identify which design choices drive their quality-efficiency trade-off. Instead of treating VAR…

Diffusion-Free Graph Generation with Next-Scale Prediction

Samuel Belkadi, Steve Hong, Marian Chen +3

Autoregressive models excel in efficiency and plug directly into the transformer ecosystem, delivering robust generalization, predictable scalability, and seamless workflows such a…

Large Language Models for Biomedical Text Simplification: Promising But Not There Yet

Zihao Li, Samuel Belkadi, Nicolo Micheletti +3

In this system report, we describe the models and methods we used for our participation in the PLABA2023 task on biomedical abstract simplification, part of the TAC 2023 tracks. Th…

Secure Control Systems for Autonomous Quadrotors against Cyber-Attacks

Samuel Belkadi

The problem of safety for robotic systems has been extensively studied. However, little attention has been given to security issues for three-dimensional systems, such as quadrotor…

Synthetic4Health: Generating Annotated Synthetic Clinical Letters

Libo Ren, Samuel Belkadi, Lifeng Han +2

Since clinical letters contain sensitive information, clinical-related datasets can not be widely applied in model training, medical research, and teaching. This work aims to gener…

Generating Synthetic Free-text Medical Records with Low Re-identification Risk using Masked Language Modeling

Samuel Belkadi, Libo Ren, Nicolo Micheletti +2

The vast amount of available medical records has the potential to improve healthcare and biomedical research. However, privacy restrictions make these data accessible for internal…

Exploration of Masked and Causal Language Modelling for Text Generation

Nicolo Micheletti, Samuel Belkadi, Lifeng Han +1

Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionised the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and have achieved state-of-the-art performance in practically every task in this fie…

Generating Medical Prescriptions with Conditional Transformer

Samuel Belkadi, Nicolo Micheletti, Lifeng Han +2

Access to real-world medication prescriptions is essential for medical research and healthcare quality improvement. However, access to real medication prescriptions is often limite…

Investigating Large Language Models and Control Mechanisms to Improve Text Readability of Biomedical Abstracts

Zihao Li, Samuel Belkadi, Nicolo Micheletti +3

Biomedical literature often uses complex language and inaccessible professional terminologies. That is why simplification plays an important role in improving public health literac…
