Basics of Large Language Models - transformers to LLMs

2026-01-26

Abstract excerpt

We will introduce Large Language Models (LLMs), focusing on their core architecture, training methodologies, practical applications, and some important considerations. We begin with a brief exploration of the transformer architecture, examining how architectural choices and scaling laws have shaped modern language models. We then investigate key training paradigms, with particular emphasis on Reinforcement Learnin...
