Multimodal Latent Language Modeling with Next-Token Diffusion

Yutao Sun, Hangbo Bao, Wenhui Wang +5

Multimodal generative models require a unified approach to handle both discrete data (e.g., text and code) and continuous data (e.g., image, audio, video). In this work, we propose…

Differential Transformer

Tianzhu Ye, Li Dong, Yuqing Xia +4

Transformer tends to overallocate attention to irrelevant context. In this work, we introduce Diff Transformer, which amplifies attention to the relevant context while canceling no…

You Only Cache Once: Decoder-Decoder Architectures for Language Models

Yutao Sun, Li Dong, Yi Zhu +6

We introduce a decoder-decoder architecture, YOCO, for large language models, which only caches key-value pairs once. It consists of two components, i.e., a cross-decoder stacked u…

Why Can GPT Learn In-Context? Language Models Implicitly Perform Gradient Descent as Meta-Optimizers

Damai Dai, Yutao Sun, Li Dong +4

Large pretrained language models have shown surprising in-context learning (ICL) ability. With a few demonstration input-label pairs, they can predict the label for an unseen input…

Prototypical Calibration for Few-shot Learning of Language Models

Zhixiong Han, Yaru Hao, Li Dong +2

In-context learning of GPT-like models has been recognized as fragile across different hand-crafted templates, and demonstration permutations. In this work, we propose prototypical…
