Self-Play Preference Optimization for Language Model Alignment (https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.00675)

# Mistral7B-PairRM-SPPO-Iter1

This model was developed using [Self-Play Preference Optimization](https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.00675) at iteration 1, based on the [mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2) architecture as starting point. We utilized the prompt sets from the [openbmb/UltraFeedback](https://huggingface.co/datasets/openbmb/UltraFeedback) dataset, splited to 3 parts for 3 iterations by [snorkelai/Snorkel-Mistral-PairRM-DPO-Dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/snorkelai/Snorkel-Mistral-PairRM-DPO-Dataset). All responses used are synthetic.

**This is the model reported in the paper** , with K=5 (generate 5 responses per iteration). We attached the Arena-Hard eval results in this model page.
