Dear Ajay, 

Hello! Hope you had a great last week. Here are the top ML Research Papers recommended by Elvis Saravia in his NLP Newsletter:

### Paper 1 - [KAN: Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2404.19756)
This paper proposes Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) as alternatives to Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLPs); KANs apply learnable activation functions on edges that represent the weights; with no linear weights used, KANs can outperform MLPs and possess faster neural scaling laws; the authors show that KANs can be used as collaborators to help scientists discover mathematics and physical laws.

### Paper 2 - [Better & Faster Large Language Models via Multi-token Prediction](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2404.19737)
This paper proposes a multi-token prediction approach that performs language modeling by training the predict the following n tokens using n independent output heads; the output heads operate on top of a shared transformer trunk; multi-token prediction is shown to be useful when using larger model sizes and can speed up inference up to 3x; the proposed 13B parameter models solves 12 % more problems on HumanEval and 17 % more on MBPP than comparable next-token models.

### Paper 4 - [When to Retrieve: Teaching LLMs to Utilize Information Retrieval Effectively](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2404.19705)
This paper presents an approach to train LLMs to effectively utilize information retrieval; it first proposes a training approach to teach an LLM to generate a special token,<RET>, when it's not confident or doesn't know the answer to a question; the fine-tuned model outperforms a base LLM in two fixed alternate settings that include never retrieving and always retrieving context.

### Paper 6 - [Prometheus 2: An Open Source Language Model Specialized in Evaluating Other Language Models](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2405.01535)
This paper introduces Prometheus 2, a refined and more powerful update to Prometheus, a language model that evaluates other Large Language Models (LLMs). Prometheus 2 closely mirrors human and GPT-4 judgements, and is capable of processing both direct assessment and pair-wise ranking formats grouped with a user-defined evaluation criteria. On four direct assessment benchmarks and four pairwise ranking benchmarks, Prometheus 2 scores the highest correlation and agreement with humans and proprietary LM judges among all tested open evaluator LMs.

### Paper 10 - [In-Context Learning with Long-Context Models: An In-Depth Exploration](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2405.00200)

This paper studies the behavior in-context learning of LLMs at extreme context lengths with long-context models; shows that performance increases as hundreds or thousands of demonstrations are used; demonstrates that long-context ICL is less sensitive to random input shuffling than short-context ICL; concludes that the effectiveness of long-context LLMs is not due to task learning but from attending to similar examples.
