Balance Exploration and Exploitation Wisely
The impact of multiple epochs in model training underscores the importance of properly managing data repetitions, as increased data weight can lead to improved memorization and potential discovery of new phenomena. However, achieving an optimal trade-off between extensive resource-driven runs and smaller-scale explorations presents challenges. Adopting a first-principles approach is crucial, particularly emphasizing the significance of high-quality data. Employing manual processes, robust analyses, and classifiers enhances data validation. Testing ideas on a smaller scale demonstrates improvements and guides decision-making for teams training large language models.
