What is a Language Model? A language model (LM) is a probability distribution over sequences of tokens. Suppose we have a vocabulary \(\mathcal{V}\) of a set of tokens, then a language model \(p\) assigns each sequence of tokens \(x_1, …, x_L \in \mathcal{V} \) a probability. To assign meaningful probabilities to all sequences requires syntactic knowledge and world knowledge. Given \( \mathcal{V} = \{ \text{ate}, \text{ball}, \text{cheese}, \text{mouse}, \text{the} \} \):... |
