    SFT Memorizes, RL Generalizes: A Comparative Study of Foundation Model | #ai #2025 #genai #google

    Paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.17161 This research paper compares supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning (RL) for post-training foundation models. Using novel and existing tasks involving arithmetic and spatial reasoning, the study finds that RL promotes better generalization to unseen data, unlike SFT which tends to memorize training data. Further analysis reveals RL enhances visual recognition capabilities in multimodal models, while SFT aids in stabilizing RL training by improving output formatting. The paper also explores the impact of increased inference-time computation on generalization. #ai, #artificialintelligence, #arxiv, #research, #paper, #publication, #llm, #genai, #generativeai, #largevisualmodels, #largelanguagemodels, #largemultimodalmodels, #nlp, #text, #machinelearning, #ml, #nvidia, #openai, #anthropic, #microsoft, #google, #technology, #cuttingedge, #meta, #llama, #chatgpt, #gpt, #elonmusk, #samaltman, #deployment, #engineering, #scholar, #science, #apple, #samsung, #turing, #aiethics, #innovation, #futuretech, #deeplearning, #datascience, #computervision, #autonomoussystems, #robotics, #dataprivacy, #cybersecurity, #digitaltransformation, #quantumcomputing, #aiapplications, #aiethics, #techleadership, #technews, #aiinsights, #aiindustry, #aiadvancements, #futureai, #airesearchers

    Large Concept Models: Language Modeling in a Sentence Representation Space | #ai #2024 #genai

    Paper: https://scontent-dfw5-1.xx.fbcdn.net/... This research paper introduces Large Concept Models (LCMs), a novel approach to language modeling that operates on sentence embeddings instead of individual tokens. LCMs aim to mimic human-like abstract reasoning by processing information at a higher semantic level, enabling improved handling of long-form text generation and zero-shot multilingual capabilities. The authors explore various LCM architectures, including MSE regression, diffusion-based generation, and quantized models, evaluating their performance on summarization, summary expansion, and cross-lingual tasks. The study demonstrates that diffusion-based LCMs outperform other methods, exhibiting impressive zero-shot generalization across multiple languages. Finally, the authors propose extending the LCM framework with a high-level planning model to further enhance coherence in long-form text generation. #ai, #artificialintelligence, #arxiv, #research, #paper, #publication, #llm, #genai, #generativeai, #largevisualmodels, #largelanguagemodels, #largemultimodalmodels, #nlp, #text, #machinelearning, #ml, #nvidia, #openai, #anthropic, #microsoft, #google, #technology, #cuttingedge, #meta, #llama, #chatgpt, #gpt, #elonmusk, #samaltman, #deployment, #engineering, #scholar, #science, #apple, #samsung, #turing, #aiethics, #innovation, #futuretech, #deeplearning, #datascience, #computervision, #autonomoussystems, #robotics, #dataprivacy, #cybersecurity, #digitaltransformation, #quantumcomputing, #aiapplications, #aiethics, #techleadership, #technews, #aiinsights, #aiindustry, #aiadvancements, #futureai, #airesearchers

    Paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.16588 This research paper examines artifacts in vision transformer feature maps, specifically high-norm tokens appearing in non-informative image areas. The authors propose adding "register" tokens to the input sequence as a solution. This simple addition eliminates the artifacts, improves performance on dense prediction tasks and object discovery, and results in smoother feature and attention maps. The findings apply to both supervised and self-supervised vision transformer models, significantly enhancing their interpretability and effectiveness.
