Scaling Laws for Neural Language Models

Paper summary

Fits empirical language-model loss trends across parameter count, data size, and training compute. The resulting scaling relations guide allocation of a fixed training budget within the studied regimes.

Relevance to the project

A methodological example of matched-budget comparisons and learning curves. The evolving engine requires its own scaling measurements and objectives.

Language modelsScaling lawsLanguage model training

Empirical laws are regime-dependent and should be compared with later compute-optimal work.
