Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Retrieval-augmented diffusion models (RDMs) have been developed to enhance performance with reduced parameters. |
| Approach: | They propose to integrate retrieval-augmented diffusion models with Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) that enhances performance with reduced parameters. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves outstanding attack effects while maintaining benign utility. |

| Challenge: | elucidating scaling laws for large language models (LLMs) during pre-training remains unexplored. |
| Approach: | They characterize how model scale, data, and compute interact during pre-training . they find that large models consistently demonstrate superior compute and data efficiency . |
| Outcome: | The proposed scaling laws offer practical guidance for scaling reasoning capabilities through reinforcement learning post-training. |
