New law quantifies tokenization needs for billion-scale user data

Researchers have proposed a "User Behavioral Densing Law" to quantify the relationship between data scale and tokenization capacity in large-scale user representation learning. A pilot study using a billion-scale Alipay dataset revealed a bottleneck in raw data scaling, which tokenization can mitigate. The proposed law identifies an approximately linear relationship between the logarithms of minimum sufficient tokenization capacity and input data size, offering practical guidance for selecting tokenization configurations. Additionally, an adaptive variable-length tokenization method called ALGN was developed, which demonstrated superior performance over existing baselines across various data sources and tasks. AI
