**SciGLM** is a suite of scientific language models able to conduct college-level scientific reasoning. Central to our approach is a novel self-reflective instruction annotation framework to address the data scarcity challenge in the science domain. This framework leverages existing LLMs to generate step-by-step reasoning for unlabelled scientific questions, followed by a process of self-reflective critic-and-revise. Applying this framework, we curated SciInstruct, a diverse and high-quality dataset encompassing physics, chemistry, math, and formal proofs.

## **SciInstruct**

We construct the SciInstruct as follows:

| Subject  |  Math  | Physics\& Chemistry | Formal Proofs (Lean) | Total   |
| --- | ---- | --------- | ------- | --- |
| # Number | 89,934 |       123,869       |        40,248        | 254,051 |

We release our data and model for public use. If you wish to use SciInstruct or SciGLM, you can download them from the following links.

## **Training & Inference**

### **Fine-tuning**
You can use the SciGLM model through Huggingface's Transformers library. 

```
git clone https://github.com/THUDM/SciGLM.git
cd SciGLM
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

To train the 6B model, run:
```
bash /path/training/finetune.sh
```

### Inference
```
cd /path/to/inference
python cli_demo.py
```
