Model Collapse in the Synthetic Data Era: Analytical Insights and Mitigation Strategies

Practical Solutions and Value of Addressing Model Collapse in AI

Challenges of Model Collapse

Large language models (LLMs) and image generators face a critical challenge known as model collapse, where AI performance deteriorates due to an abundance of AI-generated data in training sets.

Solutions to Model Collapse

Researchers have developed theoretical frameworks and practical strategies to analyze and mitigate model collapse in AI systems, ensuring the continued advancement and reliability of generative technologies.

Key Contributions

  • Analytic formulation of test error decomposition under iterative training on synthetic data.
  • Identification of detrimental effects on learning with increased generations of synthetic data.
  • Demonstration of new scaling laws for training on synthetically generated data.
  • Proposal of optimal ridge regularization parameters suited for training with synthesized data.
  • Discovery of a crossover phenomenon impacting model training rates based on the amount of true data used.

Theoretical Framework for Kernel Regression

A carefully constructed setup utilizing kernel regression provides insights into model collapse dynamics, offering pathways for enhancing large language models and other AI systems’ robustness.

Empirical Validation

Experiments on simulated and real data support the theoretical predictions, validating the proposed analytical insights and mitigation strategies for model collapse in the synthetic data age.
