D$^3$: Dynamic Directional Graph-Constrained Data Scheduling for LLM Training

arXiv:2605.31164v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training data plays a central role in large language models (LLMs) optimization, motivating extensive research on data scheduling strategies. Most existing approaches concentrate on adjusting the overall data distribution but neglect the underlying interactions between samples during training. However, we argue that such interactions cannot be overlooked, as real-world data samples frequently exhibit directional influences on each other, making the training order crucial. Intuitively, we can prioritize train-units with greater influence to impr

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing scale and complexity of LLMs necessitate more efficient and effective training methodologies, making data scheduling a critical bottleneck that new research seeks to address.

Why it’s important

Optimized data scheduling can significantly improve the performance, training efficiency, and resource utilization of LLMs, directly impacting their commercial viability and deployment.

What changes

The focus shifts from merely adjusting overall data distribution to meticulously considering interaction-aware data ordering, potentially leading to more robust and capable LLMs with less computational overhead.
