Code Release for "Broken Neural Scaling Laws" (BNSL) paper (arxiv.org/abs/2210.14891)

Read Appendix A.6 of arXiv version of this paper for more details on how to use this code.

To reproduce the Fitting and Extrapolation of BNSL on 4 Digit Addition from Figure 5 Left, run

python fit_bnsl_and_extrapolate__4_digit_addition__dataset_size_x-axis.py

To reproduce the Fitting and Extrapolation of BNSL on a noiseless simulation of the scaling behavior of 4 Digit Addition from Figure 5 Right, run

python fit_bnsl_and_extrapolate__4_digit_addition__dataset_size_x-axis__noiseless_simulation.py

To reproduce the Decomposition of BNSL into Power Law Segments from Figure 1, run

python make_figure_1__decomposition_of_bnsl_into_power_law_segments.py

Note:

🚨🚨🚨

When you fit a BNSL to your own scaling data, you may need to adjust the grid search range and resolution to get a good fit.
