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. |
