arXiv:2410. 13077v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformer-based Large Language Models (LLMs) traditionally rely on final-layer loss for finetuning and final-layer representations for predictions, potentially overlooking the predictive power embedded in late layers.
arXiv:2602. 05988v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Pre-training Large Language Models (LLMs) on web-scale datasets becomes fundamental for advancing general-purpose AI.
arXiv:2601. 21461v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern sparse language models typically achieve sparsity through Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) layers, which dynamically route tokens to dense MLP "experts.
arXiv:2606. 06574v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) perform inference by following a fixed depth and order, non-recurrent execution of all layers.
arXiv:2607. 00510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowing which training examples drive outputs is fundamental to auditing, correcting, and understanding language models, yet for modern LLMs this remains expensive, approximate, and largely post-hoc.
arXiv:2603. 24787v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Routing has emerged as a promising strategy for balancing performance and cost in large language model (LLM) systems that combine lightweight models with powerful but expensive large models.
arXiv:2604. 24927v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating diverse responses is crucial for test-time scaling of large language models (LLMs), yet standard stochastic sampling mostly yields surface-level lexical variation, limiting semantic exploration.
arXiv:2607. 22577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling large language models (LLMs) has driven their success, yet dense Transformers couple capacity and computation: every parameter is activated for every token, making training and inference costs grow linearly with model size-a critical bottleneck as models approach trillion-parameter regimes.
arXiv:2603. 20895v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing routers rely on semantic query features or handcrafted features, which often fail to capture model-specific failures or intrinsic task difficulty.
arXiv:2606. 16825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures efficiently scale Large Language Models (LLMs) by activating only a small fraction of their experts per token, yet the full parameter count - dominated by the expert parameters - must be held in training and inference memory.
arXiv:2511. 08577v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Improving the reasoning abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs), especially under parameter constraints, is crucial for real-world applications.
arXiv:2608. 08888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive transformers compute along two axes: horizontally across generated tokens, and vertically through model depth.
arXiv:2606. 16112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Residual architectures are ubiquitous in deep learning, but they suffer from a subtle structural limitation: the norm of the residual stream can grow rapidly with depth.
