Data-Efficient Language Modeling Advances
Qiushi Engine's BabyLM 2026 Strict-Small project, using only a 10 million corpus and 100 million word presentations, conducted a comprehensive research program. The study divided into three stages: first, it combined compact restatements with budget reinvestment and residual incremental learning to create an advanced model; second, it discovered that exact repetition and aligned restatement have…
