Summary : Regardless of the effectiveness of knowledge choice for big language fashions (LLMs) throughout pretraining and instruction fine-tuning phases, bettering information effectivity in supervised fine-tuning (SFT) for specialised domains poses vital challenges because of the complexity of fine-tuning information. To bridge this hole, we introduce an efficient and scalable information choice methodology for SFT, SmallToLarge (S2L), which leverages coaching trajectories from small fashions to information the info choice for bigger fashions. We exhibit by way of intensive experiments that S2L considerably improves information effectivity in SFT for mathematical problem-solving, lowering the coaching information to simply 11% of the unique MathInstruct dataset (Yue et al., 2023) to match full dataset efficiency whereas outperforming state-of-the-art information choice algorithms by a median of 4.7% throughout 6 in- and out-domain analysis datasets. Remarkably, deciding on solely 50K information for SFT, S2L achieves a 32.7% accuracy on probably the most difficult MATH (Hendrycks et al., 2021) benchmark, bettering Phi-2 (Li et al., 2023b) by 16.6%. In medical textual content summarization on the MIMIC-III dataset (Johnson et al., 2016), S2L once more outperforms coaching on the total dataset utilizing solely 50% of the info. Notably, S2L can carry out information choice utilizing a reference mannequin 40x smaller than the goal mannequin, proportionally lowering the price of information choice.

Summary : Information tracing (KT) goals to estimate scholar’s information mastery based mostly on their historic interactions. Just lately, the deep studying based mostly KT (DLKT) approaches have achieved spectacular efficiency within the KT job. These DLKT fashions closely depend on the massive variety of out there scholar interactions. Nonetheless, because of numerous causes resembling finances constraints and privateness considerations, noticed interactions are very restricted in lots of real-world eventualities, a.okay.a, low-resource KT datasets. Instantly coaching a DLKT mannequin on a low-resource KT dataset could result in overfitting and it’s tough to decide on the suitable deep neural structure. Subsequently, on this paper, we suggest a low-resource KT framework known as LoReKT to deal with above challenges. Impressed by the prevalent “pre-training and fine-tuning” paradigm, we intention to study transferable parameters and representations from rich-resource KT datasets throughout the pre-training stage and subsequently facilitate efficient adaptation to low-resource KT datasets. Particularly, we simplify present subtle DLKT mannequin architectures with purely a stack of transformer decoders. We design an encoding mechanism to include scholar interactions from a number of KT information sources and develop an significance mechanism to prioritize updating parameters with excessive significance whereas constraining much less essential ones throughout the fine-tuning stage. We consider LoReKT on six public KT datasets and experimental outcomes exhibit the prevalence of our strategy when it comes to AUC and Accuracy. To encourage reproducible analysis, we make our information and code publicly out there at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/LoReKT-C619.
