Loss-based pruning of training data to limit facts and flatten their frequency distribution enables a 110M-parameter GPT-2 model to memorize 1.3 times more entity facts than standard training, matching a 1.3B-parameter model on the full dataset.

Controlled experiments show language models extract correct answers from contradictory data only when errors are structurally incoherent, supporting the hypothesis that gradient descent selects the most compressible answer cluster.
Deep sequence models develop geometric memory in embeddings that encodes novel global relationships, transforming l-fold composition tasks into 1-step navigation via a natural spectral bias connected to Node2Vec.

Cram Less to Fit More: Training Data Pruning Improves Memorization of Facts
Loss-based pruning of training data to limit facts and flatten their frequency distribution enables a 110M-parameter GPT-2 model to memorize 1.3 times more entity facts than standard training, matching a 1.3B-parameter model on the full dataset.
