Context-level Language Modeling by Learning Predictive Context Embeddings

Beiya Dai, Yuliang Liu, Daozheng Xue +6

We propose ContextLM, a framework that implicitly learns multi-token prediction by augmenting standard pretraining with an intrinsic next-context prediction objective. ContextLM bu…

Next Concept Prediction in Discrete Latent Space Leads to Stronger Language Models

Yuliang Liu, Yunchong Song, Yixuan Wang +6

We propose Next Concept Prediction (NCP), a generative pretraining paradigm built on top of Next Token Prediction (NTP). NCP predicts discrete concepts that span multiple tokens, t…

AdaptiveStep: Automatically Dividing Reasoning Step through Model Confidence

Yuliang Liu, Junjie Lu, Zhaoling Chen +10

Current approaches for training Process Reward Models (PRMs) often involve breaking down responses into multiple reasoning steps using rule-based techniques, such as using predefin…

Multi-Prompting Decoder Helps Better Language Understanding

Zifeng Cheng, Zhaoling Chen, Zhiwei Jiang +4

Recent Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) usually only provide users with the inference APIs, namely the emerging Model-as-a-Service (MaaS) setting. To adapt MaaS PLMs to downstrea…

PyramidKV: Dynamic KV Cache Compression based on Pyramidal Information Funneling

Zefan Cai, Yichi Zhang, Bofei Gao +8

In this study, we investigate whether attention-based information flow inside large language models (LLMs) is aggregated through noticeable patterns for long context processing. Ou…
