CMR Scaling Law: Predicting Critical Mixture Ratios for Continual Pre-training of Language Models (2024.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in diverse tasks but often underperform in specialized fields due to limited domain-specific or proprietary corpus. |
| Approach: | They propose a power-law relationship between loss, mixture ratio, and training tokens scale and formalize the trade-off between general and domain-specific capabilities. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves the desired domain transfer while maintaining general ability and highest utilization of available resources. |
Consultant Decoding: Yet Another Synergistic Mechanism (2025.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large language models (LLMs) have attracted widespread attention and adoption across diverse domains due to their exceptional performance and robust generalization abilities. |
| Approach: | They propose a synergetic mechanism for Consultant Decoding (CD) that achieves a 2.5-fold increase in inference speed compared to the target model while maintaining comparable generation quality. |
| Outcome: | The proposed mechanism achieves 2.5-fold increase in inference speed while maintaining comparable generation quality (100% of the target model’s performance). |
MiMIC: Mitigating Visual Modality Collapse in Universal Multimodal Retrieval While Avoiding Semantic Misalignment (2026.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing UMR methods can be broadly divided into two categories: early-fusion approaches, such as Marvel, which projects visual features into the language model space for integrating with text modality, and late-fusion methods, such UniVL-DR, which encode visual and textual inputs using separate encoders and obtain fused embeddings through addition. |
| Approach: | They propose to map different modalities into a shared embedding space for multi-modal retrieval. |
| Outcome: | Experiments on the WebQA+ and EVQA+ datasets show that MiMIC outperforms both early- and late-fusion approaches. |
