AVQ-Attention: Adaptive Vector-Quantized Attention
Winfried van den dool, Patrick Forré, Amir Habibian +2
The complexity of attention over tokens remains a computational bottleneck in transformer models. Vector-Quantized (VQ) attention reduces this to $\mathcal{O…
Knowledge Distillation for Visual Autoregressive Models
Elia Peruzzo, Aritra Bhowmik, Guillaume Sautiere +2
Autoregressive (AR) image generation models are highly expressive but computationally intensive, motivating effective model compression. Knowledge distillation (KD) is a natural ap…
Data Repetition Beats Data Scaling in Long-CoT Supervised Fine-Tuning
Dawid J. Kopiczko, Sagar Vaze, Tijmen Blankevoort +1
Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on chain-of-thought data is an essential post-training step for reasoning language models. Standard machine learning intuition suggests that training w…
Elastic ViTs from Pretrained Models without Retraining
Walter Simoncini, Michael Dorkenwald, Tijmen Blankevoort +2
Vision foundation models achieve remarkable performance but are only available in a limited set of pre-determined sizes, forcing sub-optimal deployment choices under real-world con…
Bitune: Leveraging Bidirectional Attention to Improve Decoder-Only LLMs
Dawid J. Kopiczko, Tijmen Blankevoort, Yuki M. Asano
Decoder-only large language models typically rely solely on masked causal attention, which limits their expressiveness by restricting information flow to one direction. We propose…
Think Big, Generate Quick: LLM-to-SLM for Fast Autoregressive Decoding
Benjamin Bergner, Andrii Skliar, Amelie Royer +3
Large language models (LLMs) have become ubiquitous in practice and are widely used for generation tasks such as translation, summarization and instruction following. However, thei…
The LLM Surgeon
Tycho F. A. van der Ouderaa, Markus Nagel, Mart van Baalen +2
State-of-the-art language models are becoming increasingly large in an effort to achieve the highest performance on large corpora of available textual data. However, the sheer size…
VeRA: Vector-based Random Matrix Adaptation
Dawid J. Kopiczko, Tijmen Blankevoort, Yuki M. Asano
Low-rank adapation (LoRA) is a popular method that reduces the number of trainable parameters when finetuning large language models, but still faces acute storage challenges when s…
