The MiniMax-M2 Series: Mini Activations Unleashing Max Real-World Intelligence
MiniMax, :, Aili Chen +219
We introduce the MiniMax-M2 series, a family of Mixture-of-Experts language models built around the principle that mini activations can unleash maximum real-world intelligence. The…
InfoQuant: Shaping Activation Distributions for Low-Bit LLM Quantization
Ke Li, Dong An, Xiaoling Zang +6
Low-bit activation quantization remains a major bottleneck in efficient large language model (LLM) deployment. The difficulty is not only that activations contain outliers, but tha…
Frozen Large Language Models Can Perceive Paralinguistic Aspects of Speech
Wonjune Kang, Junteng Jia, Chunyang Wu +8
This work studies the capabilities of a large language model (LLM) to understand paralinguistic aspects of speech without fine-tuning its weights. We utilize an end-to-end system w…
Transcribing and Translating, Fast and Slow: Joint Speech Translation and Recognition
Niko Moritz, Ruiming Xie, Yashesh Gaur +5
We propose the joint speech translation and recognition (JSTAR) model that leverages the fast-slow cascaded encoder architecture for simultaneous end-to-end automatic speech recogn…
