Conda: Column-Normalized Adam for Training Large Language Models Faster
Junjie Wang, Pan Zhou, Yiming Dong +6
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive generalization and emergent capabilities, yet their pre-training remains computationally expensive and sensitive to optimi…
UltraMemV2: Memory Networks Scaling to 120B Parameters with Superior Long-Context Learning
Zihao Huang, Yu Bao, Qiyang Min +8
While Mixture of Experts (MoE) models achieve remarkable efficiency by activating only subsets of parameters, they suffer from high memory access costs during inference. Memory-lay…
Frac-Connections: Fractional Extension of Hyper-Connections
Defa Zhu, Hongzhi Huang, Jundong Zhou +5
Residual connections are central to modern deep learning architectures, enabling the training of very deep networks by mitigating gradient vanishing. Hyper-Connections recently gen…
Ultra-Sparse Memory Network
Zihao Huang, Qiyang Min, Hongzhi Huang +4
It is widely acknowledged that the performance of Transformer models is logarithmically related to their number of parameters and computational complexity. While approaches like Mi…
Hyper-Connections
Defa Zhu, Hongzhi Huang, Zihao Huang +5
We present hyper-connections, a simple yet effective method that can serve as an alternative to residual connections. This approach specifically addresses common drawbacks observed…
