Domain Adaptation of Large Language Models
This repo contains the domain-specific base model developed from LLaMA-1-7B, using the method in our ICLR 2024 paper Adapting Large Language Models via Reading Comprehension.
We explore continued pre-training on domain-specific corpora for large language models. While this approach enriches LLMs with domain knowledge, it significantly hurts their prompting ability for question answering. Inspired by human learning via reading comprehension, we propose a simple method to transform large-scale pre-training corpora into reading comprehension texts, consistently improving prompting performance across tasks in biomedicine, finance, and law domains. Our 7B model competes with much larger domain-specific models like BloombergGPT-50B.
🤗 We are currently working hard on developing models across different domains, scales and architectures! Please stay tuned! 🤗
**************************** Updates ****************************
- 2024/1/16: 🎉 Our research paper has been accepted by ICLR 2024!!!🎉
- 2023/12/19: Released our 13B base models developed from LLaMA-1-13B.
- 2023/12/8: Released our chat models developed from LLaMA-2-Chat-7B.
- 2023/9/18: Released our paper, code, data, and base models developed from LLaMA-1-7B.
Domain-Specific LLaMA-1
LLaMA-1-7B
In our paper, we develop three domain-specific models from LLaMA-1-7B, which are also available in Huggingface: Biomedicine-LLM, Finance-LLM and Law-LLM, the performances of our AdaptLLM compared to other domain-specific LLMs are:
LLaMA-1-13B
Moreover, we scale up our base model to LLaMA-1-13B to see if our method is similarly effective for larger-scale models, and the results are consistently positive too: Biomedicine-LLM-13B, Finance-LLM-13B and Law-LLM-13B.
Domain-Specific LLaMA-2-Chat
Our method is also effective for aligned models! LLaMA-2-Chat requires a specific data format, and our reading comprehension can perfectly fit the data format by transforming the reading comprehension into a multi-turn conversation. We have also open-sourced chat models in different domains: Biomedicine-Chat, Finance-Chat and Law-Chat
For example, to chat with the biomedicine base model (🤗we highly recommend switching to the chat model for better response quality!):
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("AdaptLLM/medicine-LLM")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("AdaptLLM/medicine-LLM", use_fast=False)
# Put your input here:
user_input = '''Question: Which of the following is an example of monosomy?
Options:
- 46,XX
- 47,XXX
- 69,XYY
- 45,X
Please provide your choice first and then provide explanations if possible.'''
# Simply use your input as the prompt for base models
prompt = user_input
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt", add_special_tokens=False).input_ids.to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(input_ids=inputs, max_length=2048)[0]
answer_start = int(inputs.shape[-1])
pred = tokenizer.decode(outputs[answer_start:], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(f'### User Input:\n{user_input}\n\n### Assistant Output:\n{pred}')
Domain-Specific Tasks
To easily reproduce our results, we have uploaded the filled-in zero/few-shot input instructions and output completions of each domain-specific task: biomedicine-tasks, finance-tasks, and law-tasks.
Note: those filled-in instructions are specifically tailored for models before alignment and do NOT fit for the specific data format required for chat models.
