Papers with causal LM distillation
Plug and Play Knowledge Distillation for kNN-LM with External Logits (2022.aacl-short)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Despite the promising evaluation results by knowledge distillation (KD) in natural language understanding (NLU) and sequence-to-sequence (seq2sequ) tasks, KD for causal language modeling (LM) remains a challenge. |
| Approach: | They propose to use external logits to improve a student's kNN-LM by leveraging teacher's knowledge at test time. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves a student's kNN-LM in multiple language modeling datasets and improves perplexity. |
