Gemma 4 Technical Report
Gemma Team, Sherif El Abd, Vaibhav Aggarwal +320
We introduce Gemma 4, a new generation of open-weight, natively multimodal language models in the Gemma model family. Designed to advance compute efficiency and reasoning, the Gemm…
DataComp-VLM: Improved Open Datasets for Vision-Language Models
Matteo Farina, Vishaal Udandarao, Thao Nguyen +33
Building performant Vision-Language Models (VLMs) requires carefully curating large-scale training datasets, yet the community lacks systematic benchmarks for evaluating such curat…
Dissecting Multimodal In-Context Learning: Modality Asymmetries and Circuit Dynamics in modern Transformers
Yiran Huang, Karsten Roth, Quentin Bouniot +2
Transformer-based multimodal large language models often exhibit in-context learning (ICL) abilities. Motivated by this phenomenon, we ask: how do transformers learn to associate i…
Subspace-Boosted Model Merging
Ronald Skorobogat, Karsten Roth, Mariana-Iuliana Georgescu
Model merging enables the combination of multiple specialized expert models into a single model capable of performing multiple tasks. However, the benefits of merging an increasing…
WikiBigEdit: Understanding the Limits of Lifelong Knowledge Editing in LLMs
Lukas Thede, Karsten Roth, Matthias Bethge +2
Keeping large language models factually up-to-date is crucial for deployment, yet costly retraining remains a challenge. Knowledge editing offers a promising alternative, but metho…
Context-Aware Multimodal Pretraining
Karsten Roth, Zeynep Akata, Dima Damen +2
Large-scale multimodal representation learning successfully optimizes for zero-shot transfer at test time. Yet the standard pretraining paradigm (contrastive learning on large amou…
Disentangled Representation Learning with the Gromov-Monge Gap
Théo Uscidda, Luca Eyring, Karsten Roth +3
Learning disentangled representations from unlabelled data is a fundamental challenge in machine learning. Solving it may unlock other problems, such as generalization, interpretab…
Reflecting on the State of Rehearsal-free Continual Learning with Pretrained Models
Lukas Thede, Karsten Roth, Olivier J. Hénaff +2
With the advent and recent ubiquity of foundation models, continual learning (CL) has recently shifted from continual training from scratch to the continual adaptation of pretraine…
ReNO: Enhancing One-step Text-to-Image Models through Reward-based Noise Optimization
Luca Eyring, Shyamgopal Karthik, Karsten Roth +2
Text-to-Image (T2I) models have made significant advancements in recent years, but they still struggle to accurately capture intricate details specified in complex compositional pr…
ETHER: Efficient Finetuning of Large-Scale Models with Hyperplane Reflections
Massimo Bini, Karsten Roth, Zeynep Akata +1
Parameter-efficient finetuning (PEFT) has become ubiquitous to adapt foundation models to downstream task requirements while retaining their generalization ability. However, the am…
Improving Intervention Efficacy via Concept Realignment in Concept Bottleneck Models
Nishad Singhi, Jae Myung Kim, Karsten Roth +1
Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) ground image classification on human-understandable concepts to allow for interpretable model decisions. Crucially, the CBM design inherently allow…
Fantastic Gains and Where to Find Them: On the Existence and Prospect of General Knowledge Transfer between Any Pretrained Model
Karsten Roth, Lukas Thede, Almut Sophia Koepke +3
Training deep networks requires various design decisions regarding for instance their architecture, data augmentation, or optimization. In this work, we find these training variati…
Vision-by-Language for Training-Free Compositional Image Retrieval
Shyamgopal Karthik, Karsten Roth, Massimiliano Mancini +1
Given an image and a target modification (e.g an image of the Eiffel tower and the text "without people and at night-time"), Compositional Image Retrieval (CIR) aims to retrieve th…
