Text, audio, and code sequences depend on position information to decipher meaning. Large language models (LLMs) such as the Transformer architecture do not inherently contain order information and regard sequences as sets. The concept of Position Encoding (PE) is used here, assigning a unique vector to each position. This approach is crucial for LLMs to…
The improvement of logical reasoning capabilities in Large Language Models (LLMs) is a critical challenge for the progression of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Despite the impressive performance of current LLMs in various natural language tasks, their limited logical reasoning ability hinders their use in situations requiring deep understanding and structured problem-solving.
The need to overcome…
The existing language learning models (LLMs) are advancing yet have been struggling with incorporating new knowledge without forgetting the previous information, a situation termed as "catastrophic forgetting." The present methods, such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), are not very effective in tasks demanding integration of new knowledge from various passages due to encoding each passage in…
Natural Language Processing (NLP) has undergone a dramatic transformation in recent years, largely due to advanced language models such as transformers. The emergence of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is one of the most groundbreaking achievements in this field. RAG integrates retrieval systems with generative models, resulting in versatile, efficient, and accurate language models. However, before delving…
Researchers from the University of Minnesota have developed a new method to strengthen the performance of large language models (LLMs) in knowledge graph question-answering (KGQA) tasks. The new approach, GNN-RAG, incorporates Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to enable retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), which enhances the LLMs' ability to answer questions accurately.
LLMs have notable natural language understanding capabilities,…

Researchers in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have made considerable advances in the development and application of large language models (LLMs). These models are capable of understanding and generating human language, and hold the potential to transform how we interact with machines and handle information-processing tasks. However, one persistent challenge is their performance in…
Large Language Models (LLMs) are known for their ability to carry out multiple tasks and perform exceptionally across diverse applications. However, their potential to produce accurate information is inhibited, particularly when the knowledge is less represented in their training data. To tackle this issue, a technique known as retrieval augmentation was devised, combining information retrieval…
Selecting the right balance between enhancing the data set and enhancing the model parameters in a given computational budget is essential for the optimization of Neural Networks. Scaling rules assist in this allocation of strategies. Past research has recognized a 1-to-1 ratio of parameter count scaling and training token count as the most effective approach…
