T5Gemma 2 follows the same adaptation idea introduced in T5Gemma, initialize an encoder-decoder model from a decoder-only checkpoint, then adapt with UL2. In the above figure the research team show ...

Now that gRPC no longer supports Java 7, is there a appetite to move from Guava's Base64 encoder/decoder to the one provided by the JDK? Later version of the JDK have improved Base64 encoding/decoding ...

Humans are known to invent private hand gestures. Chimps in the wild do, too, a new study suggests. By Brandon Keim Parents and their children, or people who know each other well, often share some ...

NVIDIA's TensorRT-LLM now supports encoder-decoder models with in-flight batching, offering optimized inference for AI applications. Discover the enhancements for generative AI on NVIDIA GPUs. NVIDIA ...

Transformer-based models have rapidly spread from text to speech, vision, and other modalities. This has created challenges for the development of Neural Processing Units (NPUs). NPUs must now ...

Large language models (LLMs) have changed the game for machine translation (MT). LLMs vary in architecture, ranging from decoder-only designs to encoder-decoder frameworks. Encoder-decoder models, ...
