Mixtral of Experts - Summary

Mixtral of Experts - Summary

The paper introduces Mixtral 8x7B, a Sparse Mixture of Experts (SMoE) language model that outperforms existing models like Llama 2 70B and GPT-3.5 on various benchmarks. It uses a routing network to select two experts per token, allowing access to 47B parameters while actively using only 13B, enhan

LLMLingua: Compressing Prompts for Accelerated Inference of Large Language Models - Summary

This paper presents a method for compressing prompts in large language models (LLMs) to accelerate model inference and reduce cost. The method involves a budget controller, a token-level iterative compression algorithm, and an instruction tuning based method for distribution alignment. Experimental

Skeleton-of-Thought: Large Language Models Can Do Parallel Decoding - Summary

Skeleton-of-Thought: Large Language Models Can Do Parallel Decoding - Summary

This paper introduces the Skeleton-of-Thought (SoT) method to decrease the generation latency of large language models (LLMs). SoT guides LLMs to first generate the skeleton of the answer and then conducts parallel API calls or batched decoding to complete the contents of each skeleton point. The m

Towards Reasoning in Large Language Models: A Survey - Summary

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge on reasoning in Large Language Models (LLMs), including techniques for improving and eliciting reasoning in these models, methods and benchmarks for evaluating reasoning abilities, findings and implications of previous r

Are We Really Making Much Progress in Text Classification? A Comparative Review - Summary

This paper reviews and compares methods for single-label and multi-label text classification, categorizing them into bag-of-words, sequence-based, graph-based, and hierarchical methods. The findings reveal that pre-trained language models outperform all recently proposed graph-based and hierarchy-b

Post Processing Recommender Systems with Knowledge Graphs for Recency, Popularity, and Diversity of Explanations - Summary

The paper proposes a re-ranking approach for explainable recommender systems using knowledge graphs to optimize for recency, popularity, and diversity of explanations. The approach is evaluated on two public datasets and shows an increase in explanation quality while preserving recommendation utili

SLiC-HF: Sequence Likelihood Calibration with Human Feedback - Summary

The paper presents a new approach called SLiC-HF that uses Sequence Likelihood Calibration with Human Feedback to improve language models. The approach is shown to be effective on the TL;DR summarization task and is a simpler and more computationally efficient alternative to Reinforcement Learning
