The Chinchilla scaling laws are a set of empirical findings published by DeepMind researchers in 2022 showing that, for a fixed compute budget, a large language model trains most efficiently when its number of…
A context window is the finite token sequence that a language model can process for one invocation.
In-context learning (ICL) is the ability of a large language model to learn a new task at inference time by conditioning on a prompt that contains a few input-output examples (demonstrations)
Instruction tuning is the post-pretraining training stage in which a large language model (LLM) is fine-tuned on a curated collection of (instruction
A large language model (LLM) is an artificial intelligence system built on a transformer neural network with billions to trillions of parameters, trained on massive text corpora to predict the next token in a…
Model merging combines the parameters of multiple trained neural networks into a single unified model without any additional training.
Post-training is the stage of large language model (LLM) development that comes after pre-training and turns a raw, general-purpose base model into an aligned, instruction-following AI assistant.
QLoRA (Quantized Low-Rank Adaptation) is a parameter-efficient fine-tuning method that finetunes a 65-billion-parameter large language model on a single 48 GB GPU while matching the quality of full 16-bit…
Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) is a positional encoding method for transformer models that encodes a token's absolute position by rotating its query and key vectors in two-dimensional subspaces
Neural scaling laws are empirical relationships that describe how a measured outcome changes as a neural network, its training data, or the computation used to train it becomes larger.
Speculative decoding is a lossless inference acceleration technique for autoregressive transformer models in which a small, fast draft model proposes several future tokens at once and the larger target model…
