Token Distillation: Attention-Aware Input Embeddings for New Tokens

ICLR 2026poster

Current language models rely on static vocabularies determined at pretraining time, which can lead to decreased performance and increased computational cost for domains underrepresented in the original vocabulary. New tokens can be added to solve this problem, when coupled with a good initialization…

I Don't Know: Explicit Modeling of Uncertainty with an [IDK] Token

NeurIPS 2024poster

Large Language Models are known to capture real-world knowledge, allowing them to excel in many downstream tasks. Despite recent advances, these models are still prone to what are commonly known as hallucinations, causing them to emit unwanted and factually incorrect text. In this work, we propose a…

FOCUS: Effective Embedding Initialization for Monolingual Specialization of Multilingual Models

EMNLP 2023long main

Using model weights pretrained on a high-resource language as a warm start can reduce the need for data and compute to obtain high-quality language models for other, especially low-resource, languages. However, if we want to use a new tokenizer specialized for the target language, we cannot transfer…

Art Creation with Multi-Conditional StyleGANs

IJCAI 2022poster

Creating art is often viewed as a uniquely human endeavor. In this paper, we introduce a multi-conditional Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) approach trained on large amounts of human paintings to synthesize realistic-looking paintings that emulate human art. Our approach is based on the StyleGAN…
