Researchers have developed a new framework called PODS (Plug-and-play Oscillatory Data-volume Scheduling) to make model training more efficient. PODS dynamically adjusts the amount of data used during training, alternating between phases that emphasize regularization and phases that maintain data coverage. This approach is designed to be compatible with existing data selection methods and can be applied across various training paradigms. Experiments show PODS can significantly reduce training costs for tasks like ImageNet-1k and accelerate LLM instruction tuning without compromising performance. AI
