Don't Forget! Decomposing the Training Dynamics of Memorization in Language Models
Florian Eichin, Philipp Mondorf, Andrei Mircea +3
Memorization has been proposed as a mechanism to explain how language models fit the tail of their training distributions, but its training dynamics are not understood well. In thi…
Reason to Rote: Rethinking Memorization in Reasoning
Yupei Du, Philipp Mondorf, Silvia Casola +3
Large language models readily memorize arbitrary training instances, such as label noise, yet they perform strikingly well on reasoning tasks. In this work, we investigate how lang…
On Support Samples of Next Word Prediction
Yuqian Li, Yupei Du, Yufang Liu +3
Language models excel in various tasks by making complex decisions, yet understanding the rationale behind these decisions remains a challenge. This paper investigates \emph{data-c…
ExPLAIND: Unifying Model, Data, and Training Attribution to Study Model Behavior
Florian Eichin, Yupei Du, Philipp Mondorf +3
Post-hoc interpretability methods typically attribute a model's behavior to its components, data, or training trajectory in isolation, and are often tied to a particular level of g…
Language models can learn implicit multi-hop reasoning, but only if they have lots of training data
Yuekun Yao, Yupei Du, Dawei Zhu +2
Implicit reasoning is the ability of a language model to solve multi-hop reasoning tasks in a single forward pass, without chain of thought. We investigate this capability using GP…
Guiding Catalogue Enrichment with User Queries
Yupei Du, Jacek Golebiowski, Philipp Schmidt +1
Techniques for knowledge graph (KGs) enrichment have been increasingly crucial for commercial applications that rely on evolving product catalogues. However, because of the huge se…
