ConvApparel: A Benchmark Dataset and Validation Framework for User Simulators in Conversational Recommenders
Ofer Meshi, Krisztian Balog, Sally Goldman +5
The promise of LLM-based user simulators to improve conversational AI is hindered by a critical "realism gap," leading to systems that are optimized for simulated interactions, but…
Separate the Wheat from the Chaff: Winnowing Down Divergent Views in Retrieval Augmented Generation
Song Wang, Zihan Chen, Peng Wang +5
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enhances large language models (LLMs) by integrating external knowledge sources to address their limitations in accessing up-to-date or special…
Scaling Data-Constrained Language Models
Niklas Muennighoff, Alexander M. Rush, Boaz Barak +6
The current trend of scaling language models involves increasing both parameter count and training dataset size. Extrapolating this trend suggests that training dataset size may so…
Command A: An Enterprise-Ready Large Language Model
Team Cohere, :, Aakanksha +227
In this report we describe the development of Command A, a powerful large language model purpose-built to excel at real-world enterprise use cases. Command A is an agent-optimised…
Multilingual Machine Translation with Open Large Language Models at Practical Scale: An Empirical Study
Menglong Cui, Pengzhi Gao, Wei Liu +2
Large language models (LLMs) have shown continuously improving multilingual capabilities, and even small-scale open-source models have demonstrated rapid performance enhancement. I…
Aya Expanse: Combining Research Breakthroughs for a New Multilingual Frontier
John Dang, Shivalika Singh, Daniel D'souza +42
We introduce the Aya Expanse model family, a new generation of 8B and 32B parameter multilingual language models, aiming to address the critical challenge of developing highly perf…
