PaLM: Scaling Language Modeling with Pathways

2022 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Large language models have been shown to achieve remarkable performance across a variety of natural language tasks using few-shot learning, which drastically reduces the number of task-specific training examples needed to adapt the model to …

LaMDA: Language Models for Dialog Applications

2022 · arXiv (Cornell University)

We present LaMDA: Language Models for Dialog Applications. LaMDA is a family of Transformer-based neural language models specialized for dialog, which have up to 137B parameters and are pre-trained on 1.56T words of public dialog …

Exploring the Limits of Transfer Learning with a Unified Text-to-Text Transformer

2019 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Transfer learning, where a model is first pre-trained on a data-rich task before being fine-tuned on a downstream task, has emerged as a powerful technique in natural language processing (NLP). The effectiveness of transfer learning …

Scaling Instruction-Finetuned Language Models

2022 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Finetuning language models on a collection of datasets phrased as instructions has been shown to improve model performance and generalization to unseen tasks. In this paper we explore instruction finetuning with a particular focus on …
