In the field of deep learning, normalization layers are considered an indispensable component of modern neural networks. Recently, research led by Meta FAIR research scientist Zhuang Liu, titled "Transformer without Normalization Layers", has garnered significant attention. This research not only introduces a new technique called Dynamic Tanh (DyT), but also demonstrates the effectiveness of Transformer architectures even without traditional normalization layers.

In the field of natural language processing, large language models perform exceptionally well on complex tasks, but model evaluation heavily relies on expensive and time-consuming human-annotated data. As models advance, the utility of existing data declines, necessitating the continuous collection of new data for scalable and sustainable evaluation. The Meta FAIR research team has proposed the 'Self-Taught Evaluator' to address this issue. This innovative approach trains on synthetic data, eliminating the need for human annotation by generating contrasting synthetic preferences.
