Muse Glimmer 30B: An On-Device Agentic Model
Arash Ebrahim Abtahizadeh, Muna Aghamelu, Adil Ahmed +327
We introduce Muse Glimmer, an open-source 30B parameter causal language model with perception encoder, purpose-built for autonomous agentic tasks on consumer hardware. Muse Glimmer…
Breaking the Token Ceiling: Distilling Smaller, Stronger Byte Models
Kalyani Marathe, Artidoro Pagnoni, Tomasz Limisiewicz +4
Small models are made more capable through distillation from a larger one that shares their tokenization scheme. However, do distilled byte and token models behave similarly in ter…
Compute Optimal Tokenization
Tomasz Limisiewicz, Artidoro Pagnoni, Srini Iyer +6
Scaling laws enable the optimal selection of data amount and language model size, yet the impact of the data unit, the token, on this relationship remains underexplored. In this wo…
Fast Byte Latent Transformer
Julie Kallini, Artidoro Pagnoni, Tomasz Limisiewicz +5
Recent byte-level language models (LMs) match the performance of token-level models without relying on subword vocabularies, yet their utility is limited by slow, byte-by-byte auto…
Scaling Test-Time Compute for Agentic Coding
Joongwon Kim, Wannan Yang, Kelvin Niu +13
Test-time scaling has become a powerful way to improve large language models. However, existing methods are best suited to short, bounded outputs that can be directly compared, ran…
Byte Latent Transformer: Patches Scale Better Than Tokens
Artidoro Pagnoni, Ram Pasunuru, Pedro Rodriguez +11
We introduce the Byte Latent Transformer (BLT), a new byte-level LLM architecture that, for the first time, matches tokenization-based LLM performance at scale with significant imp…
Mixture-of-Transformers: A Sparse and Scalable Architecture for Multi-Modal Foundation Models
Weixin Liang, Lili Yu, Liang Luo +8
The development of large language models (LLMs) has expanded to multi-modal systems capable of processing text, images, and speech within a unified framework. Training these models…
MoMa: Efficient Early-Fusion Pre-training with Mixture of Modality-Aware Experts
Xi Victoria Lin, Akshat Shrivastava, Liang Luo +5
We introduce MoMa, a novel modality-aware mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture designed for pre-training mixed-modal, early-fusion language models. MoMa processes images and text…
