Chain of Thought (CoT) is a prompting technique that enhances the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) by encouraging them to articulate their reasoning process step by step. Instead of providing a direct answer, the model breaks down complex problems into smaller, more manageable parts, simulating human-like thought processes. This method is particularly beneficial for tasks requiring complex reasoning, such as math problems, logical puzzles, and multi-step decision-making. CoT can be implemented through prompting, where the model is guided to "think step by step," or it can be an automatic internal process in some models. CoT improves accuracy and transparency by providing a view into the model's decision-making.

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enhances large language models (LLMs) by connecting them to external knowledge sources. It works by retrieving relevant documents based on a user's query, using an embedding model to convert both into numerical vectors, then using a vector database to find matching content. The retrieved data is then passed to the LLM for response generation. This process improves accuracy and reduces "hallucinations" by grounding the LLM in factual, up-to-date information. RAG also increases user trust by providing source attribution, so users can verify the information.

Fine-tuning is a machine learning technique that adapts a pre-trained model to a specific task or domain. Instead of training a model from scratch, fine-tuning uses a pre-trained model as a starting point and further trains it on a smaller, task-specific dataset. This process can improve the model's performance on specialized tasks, reduce computational costs, and broaden its applicability across various fields. The goal of fine-tuning can be knowledge injection or alignment, or both. Fine-tuning is often used in natural language processing. There are many ways to approach fine-tuning, including supervised fine-tuning, few-shot learning, transfer learning, and domain-specific fine-tuning ...

Scaling laws describe how language model performance improves with increased model size, training data, and compute. These improvements often follow a power-law, with predictable gains as resources scale up. There are diminishing returns with increased scale. Optimal training involves a balance of model size, data, and compute, and may require training large models on less data, stopping before convergence. To prevent overfitting, the dataset size should increase sublinearly with model size. Scaling laws are relatively independent of model architecture. Current large models are often undertrained, suggesting a need for more balanced resource allocation.

Mixture of Experts (MoE) models use multiple sub-models, or experts, to handle different parts of the input space, orchestrated by a router or gating mechanism. MoEs are trained by dividing data, specializing experts, and using a router to direct inputs. Not all parameters are activated for each input, using sparse activation, and techniques such as load balancing and expert capacity are used to improve training. MoE models can be built through upcycling or sparse splitting. While MoEs offer faster pretraining and inference, they also present training challenges such as imbalanced routing and high resource requirements, which can be mitigated using techniques such as regularization and specialized algorithms.

Multi-task learning (MTL) is a machine learning approach where a model learns multiple tasks simultaneously, leveraging the shared information between related tasks to improve generalization. MTL can be motivated by human learning and is considered a form of inductive transfer. Two common methods for MTL in deep learning are hard and soft parameter sharing. Hard parameter sharing involves sharing hidden layers across tasks, while soft parameter sharing utilizes separate models for each task with regularized parameters. MTL works through mechanisms like implicit data augmentation, attention focusing, eavesdropping, representation bias, and regularization. In addition, auxiliary tasks can help improve the performance of the main task in MTL.

Gradient descent is a widely used optimization algorithm in machine learning and deep learning that iteratively adjusts model parameters to minimize a cost function. It operates by moving parameters in the opposite direction of the gradient. There are three main variants: batch gradient descent, which uses the whole training set; stochastic gradient descent (SGD), which uses individual training examples; and mini-batch gradient descent, which uses subsets of the training data. Challenges include choosing the learning rate and avoiding local minima or saddle points. Optimization algorithms like Momentum, Nesterov accelerated gradient, Adagrad, Adadelta, RMSprop, Adam, AdaMax, and Nadam address these issues. Additional techniques such as shuffling, curriculum learning, batch normalization, early stopping, and gradient noise can improve performance.

Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPTs) are a family of large language models that use a transformer deep learning architecture. They are pre-trained on vast amounts of text data and then fine-tuned for specific tasks. GPT models can generate human-like text, translate languages, summarize content, analyze data, and write code. These models utilize self-attention mechanisms to process input and predict the most likely output, with a focus on long-range dependencies. GPT models have accelerated generative AI development and are used in various applications, including chatbots and content creation.

Linear Transformers address the computational limitations of standard Transformer models, which have a quadratic complexity, O(n^2), with respect to input sequence length. Linear Transformers aim for linear complexity, O(n), making them suitable for longer sequences. They achieve this through methods such as low-rank approximations, local attention, or kernelized attention. Examples include Linformer (low-rank matrices), Longformer (sliding window attention), and Performer (kernelized attention). Efficient attention, a type of linear attention, interprets keys as template attention maps and aggregates values into global context vectors, thus differing from dot-product attention which synthesizes pixel-wise attention maps. This approach allows more efficient resource usage in domains with large inputs or tight constraints.

The sources describe RETRO (Retrieval-Enhanced Transformer), a language model that enhances its performance by retrieving information from a large database. RETRO uses a key-value store where keys are BERT embeddings of text chunks and values are the text chunks themselves. When processing input, it retrieves similar text chunks from the database to augment the input, allowing it to perform comparably to much larger models. By incorporating this retrieved information through a chunked cross-attention mechanism, RETRO reduces the need to memorize facts and improves its performance on knowledge-intensive tasks. The database contains trillions of tokens.
