Don't Drop Dropout: Optimizing Layer Sparsity for Efficient LLM Training and Inference
Mostafa Elhoushi, Alex Pretko, Nolan Dey +6
Layer dropout (a.k.a. stochastic depth) has been shown to enable faster training, higher accuracy, and robustness to zero-shot layer pruning in both language and vision transformer…
Unlocking Lossless Speedups in LLMs via Discrete Diffusion
Subham Sekhar Sahoo, Lingjie Chen, Khiem Pham +14
Large Language Models (LLMs) owe much of their success to next-token prediction (NTP), but their autoregressive (AR) structure requires slow, sequential token generation. To overco…
Jais 2: A Family of Arabic-Centric Open Large Language Models
Mohamed Anwar, Abed Alhakim Freihat, George Ibrahim +57
Jais 2 is a family of Arabic-centric large language models developed jointly by MBZUAI, Cerebras, and Inception, designed to advance Arabic-centric language modeling, with strong p…
GQA-μP: The maximal parameterization update for grouped query attention
Kyle R. Chickering, Huijuan Wang, Mengxi Wu +7
Hyperparameter transfer across model architectures dramatically reduces the amount of compute necessary for tuning large language models (LLMs). The maximal update parameterization…
K2-V2: A 360-Open, Reasoning-Enhanced LLM
K2 Team, Zhengzhong Liu, Liping Tang +36
We introduce K2-V2, a 360-open LLM built from scratch as a superior base for reasoning adaptation, in addition to functions such as conversation and knowledge retrieval from genera…
CoRPO: Adding a Correctness Bias to GRPO Improves Generalization
Anisha Garg, Claire Zhang, Nishit Neema +3
Group-Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has emerged as the standard for training reasoning capabilities in large language models through reinforcement learning. By estimating adv…
