blog/Training a German LLM from Scratch (14 Nov. 2024)
This article is not finished and will be updated. The research group I work with has access to a small GPU cluster, which occasionally sits idle. To avoid wasting valuable compute resources (IDLE GPUs essentially burn money through opportunity costs), I decided to train a German GPT-2-style model from scratch, using only German text. Existing German models available on Hugging Face have 137M parameters and a context length of 1024 tokens1, which is quite limited compared to recently released …

papers/Language Models as Reasoners for Out-of-Distribution Detection (17 Sep. 2024)
Our paper, Language Models as Reasoners for Out-of-Distribution Detection, was presented at the Workshop on AI Safety Engineering (WAISE) 2024 and received the best paper award by popular vote. It constitutes an extension of our idea of Out-of-Distribution Detection with Logical Reasoning, where we replaced the prolog-based reasoning component with an LLM. Abstract § Deep neural networks (DNNs) are prone to making wrong predictions with high confidence for data that does not stem from their …
