Output vector editing on MLP neurons suppresses memorization in LLMs up to 87.9% on 6831 sequences in OLMo-7B with a 2.7x gap over zero ablation, ensemble covering 96.5%.
PhantomBench is a new benchmark of 60K+ non-existent terms showing language models hallucinate at rates up to 86.7 percent even when inputs assume the concepts exist.
Low-resource safety failures are action failures because the harmfulness representation transfers but the decision calibration does not; this is fixed by recalibrating a high-resource gate with 1-4 target-language examples.
A recurrent-depth architecture enables language models to improve reasoning performance by iterating computation in latent space, achieving gains equivalent to much larger models on benchmarks.
CascadeFormer tapers Transformer width with depth based on gradient fan-in asymmetry to match uniform baselines in perplexity while cutting latency 8.6%.
Safety Reflection Pretraining adds regular safety reflections to pretraining data to integrate self-monitoring and reduce unsafe generalization from safe data in LLMs.
The paper constructs an SCPI dataset via LLM-based annotation and trains classifiers to detect sensitive personal information in Japanese pre-training corpora, claiming this is the first such exploration.
Empirical study shows mixture pretraining tolerates higher target data repetition than single-source training, with a new repetition-aware scaling law enabling principled mixture selection based on data size, compute, and model scale.
A shared global expert pool in MoE improves validation loss over per-layer experts and allows sublinear expert-parameter growth with depth.
U-turn chains are Markov chains formed by short forward-backward diffusion steps that remain on the learned manifold and, with Metropolis-Hastings, sample from energy-modified targets, exhibiting an ergodicity-breaking transition on fragmented manifolds.
MEMOed framework attributes LLM generations about cultures to pretraining memorization and finds frequency-based biases across 110 cultures for food and clothing.
