Architecture Highlights
EXAONE-Deep's architecture incorporates several optimizations that enhance its reasoning capabilities while maintaining efficiency:
Grouped-Query Attention (GQA)
The larger models (32B and 7.8B) utilize Grouped-Query Attention, a technique that balances computational efficiency with model performance by reducing the number of key-value heads while maintaining query heads.
- EXAONE-Deep-32B: 40 Q-heads and 8 KV-heads
5:1 ratio for optimal balance of performance and efficiency
- EXAONE-Deep-7.8B: 32 Q-heads and 8 KV-heads
4:1 ratio for effective performance in mid-sized model
Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE)
EXAONE-Deep implements Rotary Position Embedding to effectively encode token positions, enabling better understanding of sequence order and relationships between tokens in long contexts.
This technique is particularly valuable for reasoning tasks that require tracking logical dependencies across long contexts up to 32,768 tokens.
SwiGLU Activation
The model uses SwiGLU activation functions in the feed-forward networks, which provide better gradient flow and training dynamics compared to standard activations, resulting in enhanced learning of complex patterns.
This activation function contributes to the model's strong performance in tasks requiring nuanced understanding and sophisticated reasoning.
Optimized Training Methodology
EXAONE-Deep models were trained using a specialized curriculum that emphasizes reasoning tasks, with particular focus on mathematical, scientific, and coding problems.
This training approach ensures the models develop strong capabilities in structured reasoning and problem-solving across various domains.
