Retrieval-Augmented Personalization for Multimodal Large Language Models

[Submitted on 17 Oct 2024 (v1), last revised 18 Nov 2024 (this version, v2)] View a PDF of the paper titled Retrieval-Augmented Personalization for Multimodal Large Language Models, by Haoran Hao and 4 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:The development of large language models (LLMs) has significantly enhanced the capabilities of multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) as general assistants. However, lack of user-specific knowledge still restricts their application in human's daily life. In this paper, we introduce the Retrieval Augmented Personalization (RAP) framework for MLLMs' personalization. Starting from a general MLLM, we turn it into a personalized assistant in three steps.…

Neurosymbolic Graph Enrichment for Grounded World Models

arXiv:2411.12671v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The development of artificial intelligence systems capable of understanding and reasoning about complex real-world scenarios is a significant challenge. In this work we present a novel approach to enhance and exploit LLM reactive capability to address complex problems and interpret deeply contextual real-world meaning. We introduce a method and a tool for creating a multimodal, knowledge-augmented formal representation of meaning that combines the strengths of large language models with structured semantic representations. Our method begins with an image input, utilizing state-of-the-art large language models to generate a natural language description. This description is then transformed…

Google Kubernetes Engine Now Supports Trillion-Parameter AI Models

Google Kubernetes Engine Now Supports Trillion-Parameter AI Models

(Image source: Pepperdata) The exponential growth in large language model (LLM) size and the resulting need for high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure is reshaping the AI landscape. Some of the newer GenAI models have grown to well over a billion parameters, with some approaching 2 trillion.  Google Cloud announced that in anticipation of even larger models, it has upgraded its Kubernetes Engine’s capacity to support 65,000-node clusters, up from 15,000-node clusters. This enhancement enables Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) to operate at a 10x scale compared to two other major cloud providers, according to Google Cloud. While Google Cloud did not specify…

Learning the Simplicity of Scattering Amplitudes

arXiv:2408.04720v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The simplification and reorganization of complex expressions lies at the core of scientific progress, particularly in theoretical high-energy physics. This work explores the application of machine learning to a particular facet of this challenge: the task of simplifying scattering amplitudes expressed in terms of spinor-helicity variables. We demonstrate that an encoder-decoder transformer architecture achieves impressive simplification capabilities for expressions composed of handfuls of terms. Lengthier expressions are implemented in an additional embedding network, trained using contrastive learning, which isolates subexpressions that are more likely to simplify. The resulting framework is capable of reducing expressions with…
