Compare whitespace tokenization, Byte-Pair Encoding (BPE), WordPiece, SentencePiece, and out-of-vocabulary handling.
Tokenization Questions
Select an answer to reveal detailed technical explanation and formulas.
What is the primary drawback of naive Word-Level Tokenization (e.g., splitting on spaces)?
What is the primary drawback of purely Character-Level Tokenization?
How does Byte-Pair Encoding (BPE, Sennrich et al., 2016) construct its subword vocabulary?
How does WordPiece tokenization (used in BERT) select token merges differently from BPE?
What prefix does BERT's WordPiece tokenizer attach to denote that a subword is a continuation of a word rather than the start?
How does SentencePiece (Kudo & Richardson, 2018) treat whitespace, making it language-independent?
What is Byte-level BPE (used in GPT-2, GPT-3, GPT-4, and LLaMA)?
What is the typical vocabulary size chosen for modern Large Language Models (e.g., LLaMA, Mistral, GPT-4)?
What is 'Token Healing' (e.g., in Guidance or text generation engines)?
