In this article, we will explore various aspects of BERT, including the landscape at the time of its creation, a detailed breakdown of the model architecture, and writing a task-agnostic fine-tuning pipeline, which we demonstrated using sentiment analysis. Despite being one of the earliest LLMs, BERT has remained relevant even today, and continues to find applications in both research and industry.
This article explains how to use the Sentence Transformers library to finetune and train embedding models for a variety of applications, such as retrieval augmented generation, semantic search, and semantic textual similarity. It covers the training components, dataset format, loss function, training arguments, evaluators, and trainer.
This paper introduces Cross-Layer Attention (CLA), an extension of Multi-Query Attention (MQA) and Grouped-Query Attention (GQA) for reducing the size of the key-value cache in transformer-based autoregressive large language models (LLMs). The authors demonstrate that CLA can reduce the cache size by another 2x while maintaining nearly the same accuracy as unmodified MQA, enabling inference with longer sequence lengths and larger batch sizes.
Google has launched Model Explorer, an open-source tool designed to help users navigate and understand complex neural networks. The tool aims to provide a hierarchical approach to AI model visualization, enabling smooth navigation even for massive models. Model Explorer has already proved valuable in the deployment of large models to resource-constrained platforms and is part of Google's broader ‘AI on the Edge’ initiative.

Researchers from NYU Tandon School of Engineering investigated whether modern natural language processing systems could solve the daily Connections puzzles from The New York Times. The results showed that while all the AI systems could solve some of the puzzles, they struggled overall.
This article discusses the process of training a large language model (LLM) using reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) and a new alternative method called Direct Preference Optimization (DPO). The article explains how these methods help align the LLM with human expectations and make it more efficient.
