LoLCATs: On Low-Rank Linearizing of Large Language Models

Michael Zhang, Simran Arora, Rahul Chalamala +5

Recent works show we can linearize large language models (LLMs) -- swapping the quadratic attentions of popular Transformer-based LLMs with subquadratic analogs, such as linear att…

The Hedgehog & the Porcupine: Expressive Linear Attentions with Softmax Mimicry

Michael Zhang, Kush Bhatia, Hermann Kumbong +1

Linear attentions have shown potential for improving Transformer efficiency, reducing attention's quadratic complexity to linear in sequence length. This holds exciting promise for…

Simple linear attention language models balance the recall-throughput tradeoff

Simran Arora, Sabri Eyuboglu, Michael Zhang +6

Recent work has shown that attention-based language models excel at recall, the ability to ground generations in tokens previously seen in context. However, the efficiency of atten…

Effectively Modeling Time Series with Simple Discrete State Spaces

Michael Zhang, Khaled K. Saab, Michael Poli +3

Time series modeling is a well-established problem, which often requires that methods (1) expressively represent complicated dependencies, (2) forecast long horizons, and (3) effic…

Simple Hardware-Efficient Long Convolutions for Sequence Modeling

Daniel Y. Fu, Elliot L. Epstein, Eric Nguyen +5

State space models (SSMs) have high performance on long sequence modeling but require sophisticated initialization techniques and specialized implementations for high quality and r…

Leveraging Large (Visual) Language Models for Robot 3D Scene Understanding

William Chen, Siyi Hu, Rajat Talak +1

Abstract semantic 3D scene understanding is a problem of critical importance in robotics. As robots still lack the common-sense knowledge about household objects and locations of a…

On the Opportunities and Risks of Foundation Models

Rishi Bommasani, Drew A. Hudson, Ehsan Adeli +111

AI is undergoing a paradigm shift with the rise of models (e.g., BERT, DALL-E, GPT-3) that are trained on broad data at scale and are adaptable to a wide range of downstream tasks.…
