The paper investigates how to effectively pre‑train language models when the data budget is limited but compute is plentiful. It shows that increasing model size only improves performance up to an optimal point, after which overfitting degrades generalization, and that this optimal size varies with both the data budget and downstream tasks. To overcome the inefficiencies of standard Transformers in this regime, the authors propose recursive Transformers that reuse a shared block across depth and employ factorized embeddings, achieving better results than standard models on 10M–100M word pre‑training budgets and competitive performance with BabyLM Challenge 2025 winners.

CWoMP (Contrastive Word‑Morpheme Pretraining) is a new approach for generating interlinear glossed text that treats morphemes as atomic form‑meaning units with learned representations. It uses a contrastively trained encoder to align words in context with their constituent morphemes in a shared embedding space, and an autoregressive decoder that retrieves morpheme sequences from a mutable lexicon of these embeddings. The method yields interpretable predictions grounded in lexicon entries and allows users to improve results at inference time by expanding the lexicon without retraining, achieving superior performance and efficiency on diverse low‑resource languages, especially in extremely low‑resource settings.
