We outperform Llama 70B with Llama 3B on hard math by scaling test-time compute ๐Ÿ”ฅ

How? By combining step-wise reward models with tree search algorithms :)

We show that smol models can match or exceed the performance of their much larger siblings when given enough "time to think"

We're open sourcing the full recipe and sharing a detailed blog post.

In our blog post we cover:

๐Ÿ“ˆ Compute-optimal scaling: How we implemented DeepMind's recipe to boost the mathematical capabilities of open models at test-time.

๐ŸŽ„ Diverse Verifier Tree Search (DVTS): An unpublished extension we developed to the verifier-guided tree search technique. This simple yet effective method improves diversity and delivers better performance, particularly at large test-time compute budgets.

๐Ÿงญ Search and Learn: A lightweight toolkit for implementing search strategies with LLMs and built for speed with vLLM

Here's the links:

Enjoy!

Introducing Zephyr 141B-A35B ๐Ÿช:

HuggingFaceH4/zephyr-orpo-141b-A35b-v0.1

Yesterday, Mistral released their latest base model (via magnet link of course ๐Ÿ˜…) and the community quickly converted it to transformers format and pushed it to the Hub: mistral-community/Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1

Early evals of this model looked extremely strong, so we teamed up with Argilla and KAIST AI to cook up a Zephyr recipe with a few new alignment techniques that came out recently:

๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ Align the base model with Odds Ratio Preference Optimisation (ORPO). This novel algorithm developed by @JW17 and @nlee-208 and @j6mes and does not require an SFT step to achieve high performance and is thus much more computationally efficient than methods like DPO and PPO.

๐Ÿฆซ Use a brand new dataset of 7k high-quality, multi-turn preferences that has been developed by our friends at Argilla. To create this dataset, they took the excellent Capybara SFT dataset from @LDJnr LDJnr/Capybara and converted it into a preference dataset by augmenting the final turn with responses from new LLMs that were then ranked by GPT-4.

What we find especially neat about this approach is that training on 7k samples only takes ~1.3h on 4 H100 nodes, yet produces a model that is very strong on chat benchmarks like IFEval and BBH.

Kudos to @alvarobartt @JW17 and @nlee-208 for this very nice and fast-paced collab!

Can we align code generation models to be good at chat without compromising their base capabilities ๐Ÿค”?

This was the question the H4 team asked itself when BigCode released StarCoder2 a bit over a week ago. We knew that code models like deepseek-ai/deepseek-coder-6.7b-instruct and m-a-p/OpenCodeInterpreter-DS-33B get impressive scores on code benchmarks like HumanEval, but they tend to score poorly on chat benchmarks like MT Bench and IFEval. We also knew that the Zephyr recipe we applied to Mistral 7B produced a strong chat model, so we wondered -- could be tweaked to produce a strong coding assistant?

It turns out the answer is yes and I'm happy to share StarChat2, a DPO fine-tune of StarCoder2 15B that scores highly on both HumanEval and MT Bench / IFEval ๐ŸŒŸ!

The most interesting lesson for me was that you get better models by blending in more code/math data than chat during the SFT step - in terms of tokens, we found a ratio of 3:1 worked best.

Anyway, here's a demo of the model, along with all the code and datasets we used to train it:

* Demo: HuggingFaceH4/starchat2-playground
* Collection: HuggingFaceH4/starchat2-15b-65f068417b330fafad751fce

Hope it's useful to others!
