  • Patent number: 12657425
    Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically modifying a cache associated with a neural network model of a natural language generator are described. In examples, a neural network model employs a beam search algorithm at a decoder when decoding output and generating predicted output candidates. The decoder utilizes caching techniques to improve a speed at which the neural network operations. When an amount of memory utilized by one or more caches of the neural network model is determined to exceed a threshold memory size, a layer-specific portion of a cache associated with a layer of the neural network model is identified. The identified layer-specific portion of the cache can be deleted when the amount of memory utilized by the cache of the neural network model exceeds the threshold memory size. In examples, data in the cache is deduplicated and/or deleted.

  • Patent number: 12530528
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for training a data model based on training data. The training includes pre-training and fine-tuning the data model based on a combination of an autoregressive (AR) model and a non-autoregressive (NAR) model. Training data may be received and encoded into streams of tokens. A pre-trainer during decoding generates a continuum of data structures of the AR and NAR combined model including a main stream and a series of predicting streams. Masked tokens in predicting streams reference or attend to one or more preceding tokens in the main stream or the preceding predicting streams. A fine-tuner selects streams to generate a trained model according to a target data model. The target data model is determined based on balancing an accuracy constraint and an efficiency constraint for predicting tokens. The decoder acts as abridge between the AR and NAR models in generating a trained data model.

  • Publication number: 20250355965
    Abstract: An accelerated attention mechanism with parallel operations can improve machine learning technology by enabling execution of certain matrix multiplication operations in parallel with element-wise operations, leading to an increase in speed without quality loss. To compute attention values in a machine learning model, the mechanism can receive a query vector, key vector, and value vector and split each of these vectors into blocks. For a given query block, the mechanism can determine attention values by performing element-wise operations to update the attention values for the given query block based at least in part on previously computed attention scores for the given query block and a given key block. Concurrent with performance of at least some of the element-wise operations, the mechanism can perform a matrix multiplication operation using given query block and a next key block to determine attention scores for the given query block and next key block.
