TiC-LM: A Web-Scale Benchmark for Time-Continual LLM Pretraining
This paper was accepted to the ACL 2025 main conference as an oral presentation. This paper was accepted at the Scalable Continual Learning for Lifelong Foundation Models (SCLLFM) Workshop at NeurIPS 2024. Large Language Models (LLMs) trained on historical web data inevitably become outdated. We investigate evaluation strategies and update methods for LLMs as new data becomes available. We introduce a web-scale dataset for time-continual pretraining of LLMs derived from 114 dumps of Common Crawl (CC) – orders of magnitude larger than previous continual language modeling benchmarks. We also…
This paper has been accepted at the Foundation Models in the Wild workshop at ICML 2024. Large language models are versatile tools but are not suitable for small inference budgets. Small models have more efficient inference but their lower capacity means that their performance can be good only if one…
This paper was accepted at the Learning from Time Series for Health workshop at NeurIPS 2025. Sensor data streams provide valuable information around activities and context for downstream applications, though integrating complementary information can be challenging. We show that large language models (LLMs) can be used for late fusion for…
This paper was accepted at the Workshop on Reliable and Responsible Foundation Models (RRFMs) Workshop at ICML 2025. Uncertainty quantification plays a pivotal role when bringing large language models (LLMs) to end-users. Its primary goal is that an LLM should indicate when it is unsure about an answer it gives.…
