Multi-Token Prediction via Self-Distillation

John Kirchenbauer, Abhimanyu Hans, Brian Bartoldson +3

Existing techniques for accelerating language model inference, such as speculative decoding, require training auxiliary speculator models and building and deploying complex inferen…

Teaching Pretrained Language Models to Think Deeper with Retrofitted Recurrence

Sean McLeish, Ang Li, John Kirchenbauer +7

Recent advances in depth-recurrent language models show that recurrence can decouple train-time compute and parameter count from test-time compute. In this work, we study how to co…

RAG LLMs are Not Safer: A Safety Analysis of Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Large Language Models

Bang An, Shiyue Zhang, Mark Dredze

Efforts to ensure the safety of large language models (LLMs) include safety fine-tuning, evaluation, and red teaming. However, despite the widespread use of the Retrieval-Augmented…

Exploiting Sparsity for Long Context Inference: Million Token Contexts on Commodity GPUs

Ryan Synk, Monte Hoover, John Kirchenbauer +6

There is growing demand for performing inference with hundreds of thousands of input tokens on trained transformer models. Inference at this extreme scale demands significant compu…

Be like a Goldfish, Don't Memorize! Mitigating Memorization in Generative LLMs

Abhimanyu Hans, Yuxin Wen, Neel Jain +8

Large language models can memorize and repeat their training data, causing privacy and copyright risks. To mitigate memorization, we introduce a subtle modification to the next-tok…

NEFTune: Noisy Embeddings Improve Instruction Finetuning

Neel Jain, Ping-yeh Chiang, Yuxin Wen +10

We show that language model finetuning can be improved, sometimes dramatically, with a simple augmentation. NEFTune adds noise to the embedding vectors during training. Standard fi…
