Technical Overview and Explanation of "Scalable MatMul-free Language Modeling" by gpt-4o
Technical Overview and Explanation of "Scalable MatMul-free Language Modeling"
Introduction
This paper presents a novel approach to large language models (LLMs) that eliminates matrix multiplication (MatMul) operations, which are typically the most computationally expensive part of such models. By doing so, the authors aim to significantly reduce memory usage and improve computational efficiency, enabling the models to scale up to billions of parameters while maintaining performance comparable to state-of-the-art Transformers.
Key Contributions
MatMul-Free Dense Layers: The core innovation lies in replacing MatMul operations in dense layers with addition operations using ternary weights. These ternary weights take values from {-1, 0, +1}, which allows matrix multiplications to be transformed into simple additions and subtractions.
