What in the world is Explorative Modeling?

Website: https://explorative-modeling.github.io/ GitHub: https://github.com/alexiglad/XM TLDR: We introduce Explorative Modeling, a new paradigm for generative modeling that acts as a third pretraining axis when added to existing generative models, and also enables end-to-end generation. Increasing exploration monotonically improves existing models across images, video, and language, and the gains grow with scale (7%→36% with data, 13%→23% with parameters). Concretely, Explorative Models (XMs) reach 6.2× sample efficiency, 4.1× FLOP efficiency, and 47% better parameter efficiency.…
