WanJuanSiLu: A High-Quality Open-Source Webtext Dataset for Low-Resource Languages

This paper introduces the open-source dataset WanJuanSiLu, designed to provide high-quality training corpora for low-resource languages, thereby advancing the research and development of multilingual models. To achieve this, we have developed a systematic data processing framework tailored for low-resource languages. This framework encompasses key stages such as data extraction, corpus cleaning, content deduplication, security filtering, quality evaluation, and theme classification. Through the implementation of this framework, we have significantly improved both the quality and security of the dataset, while maintaining its linguistic diversity. As of now, data for all five languages have been fully open-sourced. The dataset can be accessed at https://opendatalab.com/applyMultilingualCorpus, and GitHub repository is available at https://github.com/opendatalab/WanJuan3.0

InternLM2 Technical Report

The evolution of Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and GPT-4 has sparked discussions on the advent of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). However, replicating such advancements in open-source models has been challenging. This paper introduces InternLM2, an open-source LLM that outperforms its predecessors in comprehensive evaluations across 6 dimensions and 30 benchmarks, long-context modeling, and open-ended subjective evaluations through innovative pre-training and optimization techniques. The pre-training process of InternLM2 is meticulously detailed, highlighting the preparation of diverse data types including text, code, and long-context data. InternLM2 efficiently captures long-term dependencies, initially trained on 4k tokens before advancing to 32k tokens in pre-training and fine-tuning stages, exhibiting remarkable performance on the 200k ``Needle-in-a-Haystack" test. InternLM2 is further aligned using Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and a novel Conditional Online Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (COOL RLHF) strategy that addresses conflicting human preferences and reward hacking. By releasing InternLM2 models in different training stages and model sizes, we provide the community with insights into the model's evolution.

How Sparse Can We Prune A Deep Network: A Geometric Viewpoint

Overparameterization constitutes one of the most significant hallmarks of deep neural networks. Though it can offer the advantage of outstanding generalization performance, it meanwhile imposes substantial storage burden, thus necessitating the study of network pruning. A natural and fundamental question is: How sparse can we prune a deep network (with almost no hurt on the performance)? To address this problem, in this work we take a first principles approach, specifically, by merely enforcing the sparsity constraint on the original loss function, we're able to characterize the sharp phase transition point of pruning ratio, which corresponds to the boundary between the feasible and the infeasible, from the perspective of high-dimensional geometry. It turns out that the phase transition point of pruning ratio equals the squared Gaussian width of some convex body resulting from the $l_1$-regularized loss function, normalized by the original dimension of parameters. As a byproduct, we provide a novel network pruning algorithm which is essentially a global one-shot pruning one. Furthermore, we provide efficient countermeasures to address the challenges in computing the involved Gaussian width, including the spectrum estimation of a large-scale Hessian matrix and dealing with the non-definite positiveness of a Hessian matrix. It is demonstrated that the predicted pruning ratio threshold coincides very well with the actual value obtained from the experiments and our proposed pruning algorithm can achieve competitive or even better performance than the existing pruning algorithms.

Multi-level Multiple Instance Learning with Transformer for Whole Slide Image Classification

Whole slide image (WSI) refers to a type of high-resolution scanned tissue image, which is extensively employed in computer-assisted diagnosis (CAD). The extremely high resolution and limited availability of region-level annotations make it challenging to employ deep learning methods for WSI-based digital diagnosis. Multiple instance learning (MIL) is a powerful tool to address the weak annotation problem, while Transformer has shown great success in the field of visual tasks. The combination of both should provide new insights for deep learning based image diagnosis. However, due to the limitations of single-level MIL and the attention mechanism's constraints on sequence length, directly applying Transformer to WSI-based MIL tasks is not practical. To tackle this issue, we propose a Multi-level MIL with Transformer (MMIL-Transformer) approach. By introducing a hierarchical structure to MIL, this approach enables efficient handling of MIL tasks that involve a large number of instances. To validate its effectiveness, we conducted a set of experiments on WSIs classification task, where MMIL-Transformer demonstrate superior performance compared to existing state-of-the-art methods. Our proposed approach achieves test AUC 94.74% and test accuracy 93.41% on CAMELYON16 dataset, test AUC 99.04% and test accuracy 94.37% on TCGA-NSCLC dataset, respectively.

A Range-Null Space Decomposition Approach for Fast and Flexible Spectral Compressive Imaging

We present RND-SCI, a novel framework for compressive hyperspectral image (HSI) reconstruction. Our framework decomposes the reconstructed object into range-space and null-space components, where the range-space part ensures the solution conforms to the compression process, and the null-space term introduces a deep HSI prior to constraining the output to have satisfactory properties. RND-SCI is not only simple in design with strong interpretability but also can be easily adapted to various HSI reconstruction networks, improving the quality of HSIs with minimal computational overhead. RND-SCI significantly boosts the performance of HSI reconstruction networks in retraining, fine-tuning or plugging into a pre-trained off-the-shelf model. Based on the framework and SAUNet, we design an extremely fast HSI reconstruction network, RND-SAUNet, which achieves an astounding 91 frames per second while maintaining superior reconstruction accuracy compared to other less time-consuming methods.
