To Do

  • Make a basic implementation that works
  • Mostly everything and fix what doesn't work (still very fresh).
  • Remove placeholders and pseudocode (right now it mostly is pseudocode)
  • Tests
  • Open pretrained models and weights will be available, but a training pipeline needs to be set up. (I'm trying to set up a local server for training and inference, later on this).

Description

This is the repo for the MixKABRN Neural Network (Mixture of Kolmogorov-Arnold Bit Retentive Networks), and an attempt at first adapting it as an architecture training on text, and later adjust it for other modalities.

Please be patient if you do not like the quality, I'll try to incorporate feedback and will be accepting suggestions, merge requests, collaborations and I will try to engage in conversation.

Why MixKABRN?

The general idea here is to use some of the papers and their respective strengths to propose and share a combination of them.

The main papers are:

  • Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks
  • BitNet
  • Retentive Networks
  • Mixture of Experts

And some other are:

  • Textbooks are all you need
  • MATH
  • M2D2

In an attempt at making a local, but highly functional and adaptable model that even non AI-specific devices could handle. I would like to do this to be able to reuse old hardware and allow people without access to the internet to enjoy some of the benefits of LLMs, perhaps even train them locally to translate and share information, without depending on the internet nor very complex infrastructure.

The project structure is roughly as follows, and I will try to comment anything I can to improve clarity, or try suggestions:

Proposed datasets:

  • M2D2

  • AMPS

  • MATH

  • Phi-Code

  • OpenQA

  • Any suggestion, but trying to follow Phi or Phi-2 or similar, perhaps introduce more ideas.

  • This might not be worth it but, translating the datasets or extrapolating translated datasets could help with reinforcing ideas already seen, but encoded in different ways to take advantage of the relations from the KAN parts.(maybe the same could be said for new info, but by relating it to previous ones, it might be easier to learn?)

Mixture of Experts

  • Utilizing this technique we can enhance the model's capacity, without accumulating more memory by only using a fraction of the total parameters when performing inference, yet train with all (and maybe some implementation of LoRA for finetuning on the fly?).

Kolmogorov - Arnold Networks

  • By utilizing KANs instead of MLPs, and adapt them to our other structures, we can hipothesize that a smaller number of parameters would be needed for a performant model, so this is an attempt at finding a good parameter number for this types of networks. The idea is to find the least amount of parameters needed to get the most performant and small model.

  • Why KANs? Instead of training on the weights, they train the activation functions, leading to a lot of potential gain in undiscovered (internal) learning, although at the cost of training cost and ease of use, although MoE and Bitnet should help with training and inference (parameter number and BitNet implementation for training).

  • Perhaps minor, but they also seem to promise to help with catastrophic forgetting, so that's that.

BitNets

  • BitNets take the concept of decimal accuracy and changed it for only 3 options: -1, 0, and 1. By doing this, the footprint of a lot of things goes down.

  • Instead of performing quantization, BitNets train from the ground up with these considerations in mind, and they showed that they can scale similarly to non-Bit Transformers, which shows that there could be promising results by using these enhancements. I believe we would use the BitLinear stuff from here.

Retentive Networks

  • RetNets were posted as a possible successor to transformers, specifically for LLMs, but there have also been promising results in vision models, showing that this architecture could be more than just a proposal.

  • From what I gather, the argument is that retention is a mechanism similar to attention, but trying to bypass attention's complexity without losing performance (as in being actually a good replacement for attention).

  • By employing Multi Scale Retention, we can take the best of the parallelism of training, sub-quadratic inference, and promising performance (debatable how they described some of the competing architectures like RWKV) at different scales of input and training texts with their chunkwise and recurrent paradigms. (training in parallell, inference in O(1), meaning the only cost in memory is model and weights, and its respective inference cost that seems to promise remain scalably constant (hoping that this helps performance at large scales)).

Datasets

  • I kinda remember these datasets as having some potential useful compatibility, while maintaining some sort of resemblance to the ideas proposed by the Phi papers, although LLAMA3 seems to think the biggest dataset is best in the end, I am still trying to kind of do this locally, but adapt it to cloud infrastructure like Huggingface, etc., so people with better harware or budget could benefit from this, though one of the backbone ideas would be local training.

Why not (insert something)?

  • This has just been an idea, and if you have some that would help that's cool, but maybe we just settle with something and build up on it? Further discussion is open, maybe this is a Wild Goose chase and with your idea it can change course to something completable?
