1. **[PaLI: A Jointly-Scaled Multilingual Language-Image Model](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chen-2022-pali-jointly-scaled-multilingual-language/)** *(2022 · 371 citations)* PaLI (Pathways Language and Image model), from Google Research, explores how to scale vision-language models so that one network can handle many image, text and multimodal tasks across many languages.
2. **[Scaling Vision with Sparse Mixture of Experts](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/riquelme-2021-scaling-vision-sparse-mixture-experts/)** *(2021 · 128 citations)* Large vision networks are usually dense: each parameter touches every input, so growing capacity drives up compute.
3. **[Sparse Upcycling: Training Mixture-of-Experts from Dense Checkpoints](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/komatsuzaki-2022-sparse-upcycling-training-mixture-experts/)** *(2022 · 98 citations)* Training large neural networks from random initialization is very expensive, so most practitioners keep reusing a small set of dense models.
