1. **[Massive Activations in Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sun-2024-massive-activations-large-language-models/)** *(2024 · 88 citations)* The paper looks at the internal hidden states of LLMs and reports a strange phenomenon. A tiny handful of scalar activations, often fewer than ten among tens of millions, reach magnitudes thousands to tens of thousands of times above the typical value. The authors call these "massive activations." They examine many…
2. **[FBI-LLM: Scaling Up Fully Binarized LLMs from Scratch via Autoregressive Distillation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ma-2024-fbi-llm-scaling-up-fully/)** *(2024 · 7 citations)* Binarizing LLMs down to pure 1-bit weights could greatly cut memory and compute. Earlier approaches fall short of that limit. Some keep salient weights at higher precision (PB-LLM, BiLLM), and BitNet b1.58 uses ternary values. Others start from a pretrained full-precision model, which locks in its size and vocabulary…
