Shieldstral
Antonia Calvi, Avinash Sooriyarachchi, Giada Pistilli +274
We introduce Shieldstral, a 3B-parameter policy-adaptive multimodal safety classifier that matches or outperforms models nearly 7 its size on text safety benchmarks and set…
Voxtral TTS
Mistral-AI, :, Alexander H. Liu +186
We introduce Voxtral TTS, an expressive multilingual text-to-speech model that generates natural speech from as little as 3 seconds of reference audio. Voxtral TTS adopts a hybrid…
Voxtral Realtime
Mistral-AI, :, Alexander H. Liu +166
We introduce Voxtral Realtime, a natively streaming automatic speech recognition model that matches offline transcription quality at sub-second latency. Unlike approaches that adap…
Automated Interpretability Metrics Do Not Distinguish Trained and Random Transformers
Thomas Heap, Tim Lawson, Lucy Farnik +1
Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are widely used to extract sparse, interpretable latents from transformer activations. We test whether commonly used SAE quality metrics and automatic ex…
Ministral 3
Alexander H. Liu, Kartik Khandelwal, Sandeep Subramanian +116
We introduce the Ministral 3 series, a family of parameter-efficient dense language models designed for compute and memory constrained applications, available in three model sizes:…
Learning to Skip the Middle Layers of Transformers
Tim Lawson, Laurence Aitchison
Conditional computation is a popular strategy to make Transformers more efficient. Existing methods often target individual modules (e.g., mixture-of-experts layers) or skip layers…
