NVIDIA AI Researchers Introduce FFN Fusion: A Novel Optimization Technique that Demonstrates How Sequential Computation in Large Language Models LLMs can be Effectively Parallelized
Large language models (LLMs) have become vital across domains, enabling high-performance applications such as natural language generation, scientific research, and conversational agents. Underneath these advancements lies the transformer architecture, where alternating layers of attention mechanisms and feed-forward networks (FFNs) sequentially process tokenized input. However, with an increase in size and complexity, the computational burden required… Read more

This AI Paper Propose the UI-R1 Framework that Extends Rule-based Reinforcement Learning to GUI Action Prediction Tasks
Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) is the standard training paradigm for large language models (LLMs) and graphic user interface (GUI) agents. However, SFT demands high-quality labeled datasets, resulting in extended training periods and high computational expenses. This dependence on extensive data creates bottlenecks in AI development workflows. Moreover, existing VLM-based GUI agents trained through SFT show performance… Read more
