As large language models (LLMs) tackle increasingly complex tasks and longer documents, their computational and memory costs during inference become a major bottleneck. To address this, we propose PromptDistill, a novel, training-free…
This paper discusses our proposal and implementation of Distill, a domain-specific compilation tool based on LLVM to accelerate cognitive models. Cognitive models explain the process of cognitive function and offer a path to human-like…
The upscaling of Large Language Models (LLMs) has yielded impressive advances in natural language processing, yet it also poses significant deployment challenges. Weight quantization has emerged as a widely embraced solution to reduce…
Long conversations with an AI agent create a simple problem for one user: the history is useful, but carrying it verbatim is expensive. We study personalized agent memory: one user's conversation history with an agent, distilled into a…
Large machine-learning training datasets can be distilled into small collections of informative synthetic data samples. These synthetic sets support efficient model learning and reduce the communication cost of data sharing. Thus,…
Although large language models (LLMs) have recently achieved remarkable performance on various complex reasoning benchmarks, the academic community still lacks an in-depth understanding of base model training processes and data quality. To…
Data from software repositories have become an important foundation for the empirical study of software engineering processes. A recurring theme in the repository mining literature is the inference of developer networks capturing e.g.…
While knowledge distillation has become a mature field for compressing large language models (LLMs) into smaller ones by aligning their outputs or internal representations, the distillation of LLM-based agents, which involve planning,…
Recent research has explored distilling knowledge from large language models (LLMs) to optimize retriever models, especially within the retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) framework. However, most existing training methods rely on…
Recent work on distilling Whisper's knowledge into small models using pseudo-labels shows promising performance while reducing the size by up to 50%. This results in small, efficient, and dedicated models. However, a critical step of…
In this paper, we introduce DistDD, a novel approach within the federated learning framework that reduces the need for repetitive communication by distilling data directly on clients' devices. Unlike traditional federated learning that…
Federated learning (FL) often degrades when clients hold heterogeneous non-Independent and Identically Distributed (non-IID) data and when some clients behave adversarially, leading to client drift, slow convergence, and high communication…
Knowledge distillation involves transferring the predictive capabilities of large, high-performing AI models (teachers) to smaller models (students) that can operate in environments with limited computing power. In this paper, we address…
Knowledge distillation offers a transformative pathway to developing powerful, yet efficient, small language models (SLMs) suitable for resource-constrained environments. In this paper, we benchmark the performance and computational cost of…
Recent efforts leverage knowledge distillation techniques to develop lightweight and practical sentiment analysis models. These methods are grounded in human-written instructions and large-scale user texts. Despite the promising results,…
This paper examines the specialization of Small Language Models (SLMs) with up to 4 billion parameters for generating artifacts in domain-specific languages (DSL). Kubernetes manifests are chosen as the target domain. We propose the…
We present Impossible Distillation, a novel framework for paraphrasing and sentence summarization, that distills a high-quality dataset and model from a low-quality teacher that itself cannot perform these tasks. Unlike prior works that…
Knowledge distillation is considered a compression mechanism when judged on the resulting student's accuracy and loss, yet its functional impact is poorly understood. We quantify the compression capacity of knowledge distillation and the…
Leveraging shared learning through Massively Multilingual Models, state-of-the-art machine translation models are often able to adapt to the paucity of data for low-resource languages. However, this performance comes at the cost of…
Over the past year, the emergence of transfer learning with large-scale language models (LM) has led to dramatic performance improvements across a broad range of natural language understanding tasks. However, the size and memory footprint…
