AI Model Saves 70% Compute With Self-Rating Confidence Before Sampling

AI Model Saves 70% Compute by Self-Rating its Confidence Before Multiple Attempts. SRT improves large language model outputs, achieving 90% performance with just 30% compute, reducing computational costs without sacrificing accuracy.

  Overview

SRT (Self-Calibration with Repeated Trials) improves large language model outputs
Works by using model's own confidence to decide when to do more sampling
Achieves 90% of full sampling performance with just 30% of compute
Compatible with existing decoding methods like best-of-N
Maintains accuracy while reducing computational costs
No fine-...
