arXiv:2606.24133v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The composition of training data, governed by the diversity of sources and their mixing strategy, is a cornerstone of Large Language Model (LLM) pre-training. Online Data Mixing (ODM), the technique of adaptively adjusting data mixtures during training, has emerged as a promising direction to improve efficiency. However, existing methods are constrained by their reliance on a singular optimization perspective, which fundamentally overlooks the need for complex LLM pre-training to consider the dynamic data composition from multiple dimensions.

The increasing scale and cost of LLM pre-training necessitate more efficient data handling, making advanced scheduling crucial for economic viability and competitive advantage.
This development allows for more efficient and effective utilization of vast datasets, directly impacting the performance, cost, and development speed of future large language models.
LLM pre-training can become more resource-efficient and adaptable, potentially enabling faster iteration cycles and better model outcomes with the same or fewer computational resources.

Holistic data schedulers could become a standard component in LLM training pipelines, optimizing resource allocation.
This optimization could lower the computational cost barriers for developing powerful LLMs, increasing the number and diversity of organizations capable of training competitive models.
More sophisticated and cost-effective LLMs might accelerate the deployment of AI agents and enhance AI capabilities across various sectors, creating new market dynamics.
