• Abstract: We introduce Gemma 3, a multimodal addition to the Gemma family of lightweight open models, ranging in scale from 1 to 27 billion parameters. This version introduces vision understanding abilities, a wider coverage of languages and longer context - at least 128K tokens. We also change the architecture of the model to reduce the KV-cache memory that tends to explode with long context. This is achieved by increasing the ratio of local to global attention layers, and keeping the span on local attention short. The Gemma 3 models are trained with distillation and achieve superior performance to Gemma 2 for both pre-trained and instruction finetuned versions. In particular, our novel post-training recipe significantly improves the math, chat, instruction-following and multilingual abilities, making Gemma3-4B-IT competitive with Gemma2-27B-IT and Gemma3-27B-IT comparable to Gemini-1.5-Pro across benchmarks. We release all our models to the community.

  Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are an unsupervised method for learning a neural network's latent representations into seemingly interpretable features. In this work, we introduce Gemma Scope, an open suite of JumpReLU SAEs trained on all layers and sub-layers of Gemma 2 2B and 9B. We evaluate the quality of each SAE on standard metrics and release these results.

  We introduce Gemma 2, a new addition to the Gemma family of lightweight, state-of-the-art open models. We apply several known technical modifications to the Transformer architecture, such as interleaving local-global attentions. The resulting models deliver the best performance for their size, and even offer competitive alternatives to models that are 2-3 times bigger.

  We train a suite of multimodal foundation models (MMFM) using the popular LLaVA framework with the recently released Gemma family of large language models (LLMs) We test the effect of ablating three design features: pretraining the connector, utilizing a more powerful image backbone, and increasing the size of the language backbone. The resulting models, which we call LLaVA-Gemma, exhibit moderate performance on an array of evaluations, but fail to improve past the current comparably sized SOTA models.

• GLaM: Efficient Scaling of Language Models with Mixture-of-Experts [84.33607245023049]
  We propose and develop a family of language models named GLaM (Generalist Language Model) GLaM uses a sparsely activated mixture-of-experts architecture to scale the model capacity while also incurring substantially less training cost compared to dense variants. It consumes only 1/3 of the energy used to train GPT-3 and requires half of the flops for inference, while still achieving better overall zero-shot and one-shot performance across 29 NLP tasks.
