Researchers have developed a new method called LogFloor to optimize data selection for training large language models. This approach uses smaller proxy models to identify skill bottlenecks and determine the optimal order for addressing them during the training process. Experiments show that LogFloor can significantly reduce the token cost for training, achieving substantial savings on benchmarks like bAbI and MMLU-control, and demonstrating its effectiveness in transfer learning scenarios.
