Towards Federated Foundation Models: Scalable Dataset Pipelines for Group-Structured Learning Zachary Charles

Neural Information Processing Systems

We introduce Dataset Grouper, a library to create large-scale group-structured (e.g., federated) datasets, enabling federated learning simulation at the scale of foundation models. This library facilitates the creation of group-structured versions of existing datasets based on user-specified partitions, and directly leads to a variety of useful heterogeneous datasets that can be plugged into existing software frameworks. Dataset Grouper offers three key advantages. First, it scales to settings where even a single group's dataset is too large to fit in memory. Second, it provides flexibility, both in choosing the base (non-partitioned) dataset and in defining partitions.


Auslan-Daily: Australian Sign Language Translation for Daily Communication and News

Neural Information Processing Systems

Considering different geographic regions generally have their own native sign languages, it is valuable to establish corresponding SL T datasets to support related communication and research. Auslan, as a sign language specific to Australia, still lacks a dedicated large-scale dataset for SL T.

The complete list may be seen in Table 8. Here are a few general notes about these strings: 1. Based on their recommendations, we did the following: 1. zh, zh_Latn: This resulted in the special filters described below. URLs) the corpora were in languages different from the LangID predictions. This is mainly mis-rendered PDFs and may have practical applications for denoising, or for decoding such garbled PDFs.




Binarized Neural Machine Translation

Neural Information Processing Systems

The rapid scaling of language models is motivating research using low-bitwidth quantization. In this work, we propose a novel binarization technique for Transformers applied to machine translation (BMT), the first of its kind.
