Deploying large language models (LLMs) is challenging because they are memory inefficient and compute-intensive for practical applications. In reaction, researchers train smaller task-specific models by either finetuning with human labels or distilling using LLM-generated labels. However, finetuning and distillation require large amounts of training data to achieve comparable performance to LLMs. We introduce Distilling step-by-step, a new mechanism that (a) trains smaller models that outperform LLMs, and (b) achieves so by leveraging less training data needed by finetuning or distillation. Our method extracts LLM rationales as additional supervision for training small models within a multi-task framework. We present three findings across 4 NLP benchmarks: First, compared to both finetuning and distillation, our mechanism achieves better performance with much fewer labeled/unlabeled training examples. Second, compared to few-shot prompted LLMs, we achieve better performance using substantially smaller model sizes. Third, we reduce both the model size and the amount of data required to outperform LLMs; our finetuned 770M T5 model outperforms the few-shot prompted 540B PaLM model using only 80% of available data on a benchmark, whereas standard finetuning the same T5 model struggles to match even by using 100% of the dataset.

Continual Learning (CL) methods focus on accumulating knowledge over time while avoiding catastrophic forgetting. Recently, Wortsman et al. (2020) proposed a CL method, SupSup, which uses a randomly initialized, fixed base network (model) and finds a supermask for each new task that selectively keeps or removes each weight to produce a subnetwork. They prevent forgetting as the network weights are not being updated. Although there is no forgetting, the performance of SupSup is sub-optimal because fixed weights restrict its representational power. Furthermore, there is no accumulation or transfer of knowledge inside the model when new tasks are learned. Hence, we propose ExSSNeT (Exclusive Supermask SubNEtwork Training), that performs exclusive and non-overlapping subnetwork weight training. This avoids conflicting updates to the shared weights by subsequent tasks to improve performance while still preventing forgetting. Furthermore, we propose a novel KNN-based Knowledge Transfer (KKT) module that utilizes previously acquired knowledge to learn new tasks better and faster. We demonstrate that ExSSNeT outperforms strong previous methods on both NLP and Vision domains while preventing forgetting. Moreover, ExSSNeT is particularly advantageous for sparse masks that activate 2-10% of the model parameters, resulting in an average improvement of 8.3% over SupSup. Furthermore, ExSSNeT scales to a large number of tasks (100). Our code is available at //github.com/prateeky2806/exessnet.

In this work, we propose a novel activation mechanism aimed at establishing layer-level activation (LayerAct) functions. These functions are designed to be more noise-robust compared to traditional element-level activation functions by reducing the layer-level fluctuation of the activation outputs due to shift in inputs. Moreover, the LayerAct functions achieve a zero-like mean activation output without restricting the activation output space. We present an analysis and experiments demonstrating that LayerAct functions exhibit superior noise-robustness compared to element-level activation functions, and empirically show that these functions have a zero-like mean activation. Experimental results on three benchmark image classification tasks show that LayerAct functions excel in handling noisy image datasets, outperforming element-level activation functions, while the performance on clean datasets is also superior in most cases.

This paper delves into the challenges of achieving scalable and effective multi-object modeling for semi-supervised Video Object Segmentation (VOS). Previous VOS methods decode features with a single positive object, limiting the learning of multi-object representation as they must match and segment each target separately under multi-object scenarios. Additionally, earlier techniques catered to specific application objectives and lacked the flexibility to fulfill different speed-accuracy requirements. To address these problems, we present two innovative approaches, Associating Objects with Transformers (AOT) and Associating Objects with Scalable Transformers (AOST). In pursuing effective multi-object modeling, AOT introduces the IDentification (ID) mechanism to allocate each object a unique identity. This approach enables the network to model the associations among all objects simultaneously, thus facilitating the tracking and segmentation of objects in a single network pass. To address the challenge of inflexible deployment, AOST further integrates scalable long short-term transformers that incorporate layer-wise ID-based attention and scalable supervision. This overcomes ID embeddings' representation limitations and enables online architecture scalability in VOS for the first time. Given the absence of a benchmark for VOS involving densely multi-object annotations, we propose a challenging Video Object Segmentation in the Wild (VOSW) benchmark to validate our approaches. We evaluated various AOT and AOST variants using extensive experiments across VOSW and five commonly-used VOS benchmarks. Our approaches surpass the state-of-the-art competitors and display exceptional efficiency and scalability consistently across all six benchmarks. Moreover, we notably achieved the 1st position in the 3rd Large-scale Video Object Segmentation Challenge.

Recent years have seen increasing concerns about the private inference of NLP services and Transformer models. However, existing two-party privacy-preserving methods solely consider NLU scenarios, while the private inference of text generation such as translation, dialogue, and code completion remains unsolved. Besides, while migrated to NLG models, existing privacy-preserving methods perform poorly in terms of inference speed, and suffer from the convergence problem during the training stage. To address these issues, we propose MERGE, a fast private text generation framework for Transformer-based language models. Specifically, MERGE reuse the output hidden state as the word embedding to bypass the embedding computation, and reorganize the linear operations in the Transformer module to accelerate the forward procedure. Based on these two optimizations, extensive experiments show that MERGE can achieve a 26.5x speedup under the sequence length 512, and reduce 80\% communication bytes, with an up to 10x speedup to existing state-of-art models.

Federated learning (FL) has emerged as a promising approach for training machine learning models on decentralized data without compromising data privacy. In this paper, we propose a FL algorithm for object detection in quality inspection tasks using YOLOv5 as the object detection algorithm and Federated Averaging (FedAvg) as the FL algorithm. We apply this approach to a manufacturing use-case where multiple factories/clients contribute data for training a global object detection model while preserving data privacy on a non-IID dataset. Our experiments demonstrate that our FL approach achieves better generalization performance on the overall clients' test dataset and generates improved bounding boxes around the objects compared to models trained using local clients' datasets. This work showcases the potential of FL for quality inspection tasks in the manufacturing industry and provides valuable insights into the performance and feasibility of utilizing YOLOv5 and FedAvg for federated object detection.

Gradient methods have become mainstream techniques for Bi-Level Optimization (BLO) in learning fields. The validity of existing works heavily rely on either a restrictive Lower-Level Strong Convexity (LLSC) condition or on solving a series of approximation subproblems with high accuracy or both. In this work, by averaging the upper and lower level objectives, we propose a single loop Bi-level Averaged Method of Multipliers (sl-BAMM) for BLO that is simple yet efficient for large-scale BLO and gets rid of the limited LLSC restriction. We further provide non-asymptotic convergence analysis of sl-BAMM towards KKT stationary points, and the comparative advantage of our analysis lies in the absence of strong gradient boundedness assumption, which is always required by others. Thus our theory safely captures a wider variety of applications in deep learning, especially where the upper-level objective is quadratic w.r.t. the lower-level variable. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our method.

Instruction tuning is an effective technique to align large language models (LLMs) with human intents. In this work, we investigate how an adversary can exploit instruction tuning by injecting specific instruction-following examples into the training data that intentionally changes the model's behavior. For example, an adversary can achieve content injection by injecting training examples that mention target content and eliciting such behavior from downstream models. To achieve this goal, we propose \textit{AutoPoison}, an automated data poisoning pipeline. It naturally and coherently incorporates versatile attack goals into poisoned data with the help of an oracle LLM. We showcase two example attacks: content injection and over-refusal attacks, each aiming to induce a specific exploitable behavior. We quantify and benchmark the strength and the stealthiness of our data poisoning scheme. Our results show that AutoPoison allows an adversary to change a model's behavior by poisoning only a small fraction of data while maintaining a high level of stealthiness in the poisoned examples. We hope our work sheds light on how data quality affects the behavior of instruction-tuned models and raises awareness of the importance of data quality for responsible deployments of LLMs. Code is available at \url{//github.com/azshue/AutoPoison}.

Masked autoencoders are scalable vision learners, as the title of MAE \cite{he2022masked}, which suggests that self-supervised learning (SSL) in vision might undertake a similar trajectory as in NLP. Specifically, generative pretext tasks with the masked prediction (e.g., BERT) have become a de facto standard SSL practice in NLP. By contrast, early attempts at generative methods in vision have been buried by their discriminative counterparts (like contrastive learning); however, the success of mask image modeling has revived the masking autoencoder (often termed denoising autoencoder in the past). As a milestone to bridge the gap with BERT in NLP, masked autoencoder has attracted unprecedented attention for SSL in vision and beyond. This work conducts a comprehensive survey of masked autoencoders to shed insight on a promising direction of SSL. As the first to review SSL with masked autoencoders, this work focuses on its application in vision by discussing its historical developments, recent progress, and implications for diverse applications.

While it is nearly effortless for humans to quickly assess the perceptual similarity between two images, the underlying processes are thought to be quite complex. Despite this, the most widely used perceptual metrics today, such as PSNR and SSIM, are simple, shallow functions, and fail to account for many nuances of human perception. Recently, the deep learning community has found that features of the VGG network trained on the ImageNet classification task has been remarkably useful as a training loss for image synthesis. But how perceptual are these so-called "perceptual losses"? What elements are critical for their success? To answer these questions, we introduce a new Full Reference Image Quality Assessment (FR-IQA) dataset of perceptual human judgments, orders of magnitude larger than previous datasets. We systematically evaluate deep features across different architectures and tasks and compare them with classic metrics. We find that deep features outperform all previous metrics by huge margins. More surprisingly, this result is not restricted to ImageNet-trained VGG features, but holds across different deep architectures and levels of supervision (supervised, self-supervised, or even unsupervised). Our results suggest that perceptual similarity is an emergent property shared across deep visual representations.
