The advancements in large language models (LLMs) have significantly enhanced natural language processing (NLP), enabling capabilities like contextual understanding, code generation, and reasoning. However, a key limitation persists: the restricted context window size. Most LLMs can only process a fixed amount of text, typically up to 128K tokens, which limits their ability to handle tasks… Read more

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models utilize a router to allocate tokens to specific expert modules, activating only a subset of parameters, often leading to superior efficiency and performance compared to dense models. In these models, a large feed-forward network is divided into smaller expert networks, with the router—typically an MLP classifier—determining which expert processes each input. However,… Read more

Open Source LLM development is going through great change through fully reproducing and open-sourcing DeepSeek-R1, including training data, scripts, etc. Hosted on Hugging Face’s platform, this ambitious project is designed to replicate and enhance the R1 pipeline. It emphasizes collaboration, transparency, and accessibility, enabling researchers and developers worldwide to build on DeepSeek-R1’s foundational work. What… Read more

Generative modeling challenges in motion-controllable video generation present significant research hurdles. Current approaches in video generation struggle with precise motion control across diverse scenarios. The field uses three primary motion control techniques: local object motion control using bounding boxes or masks, global camera movement parameterization, and motion transfer from reference videos. Despite these approaches, researchers… Read more

Reinforcement learning (RL) focuses on enabling agents to learn optimal behaviors through reward-based training mechanisms. These methods have empowered systems to tackle increasingly complex tasks, from mastering games to addressing real-world problems. However, as the complexity of these tasks increases, so does the potential for agents to exploit reward systems in unintended ways, creating new… Read more
