Filtering is zero-weight mixing; data distribution foundations need work
SinclairWang1 · x · 2026-08-24
SinclairWang1 notes that filtering is exactly a special case of zero weight in data mixing. He observes that Nemotron and FineWeb achieve similar performance scores despite different data distributions, suggesting that foundational understanding of data distribution and mixing still needs to be established.
