Model Description

Instruction Pre-Training: Language Models are Supervised Multitask Learners

This repo contains the general models pre-trained from scratch in our paper Instruction Pre-Training: Language Models are Supervised Multitask Learners.

We explore supervised multitask pre-training by proposing Instruction Pre-Training, a framework that scalably augments massive raw corpora with instruction-response pairs to pre-train language models. The instruction-response pairs are generated by an efficient instruction synthesizer built on open-source models. In our experiments, we synthesize 200M instruction-response pairs covering 40+ task categories to verify the effectiveness of Instruction Pre-Training. Instruction Pre-Training* outperforms Vanilla Pre-training in both general pre-training from scratch and domain-adaptive continual pre-training. In pre-training from scratch, Instruction Pre-Training not only improves pre-trained base models but also benefits more from further instruction tuning. In continual pre-training, Instruction Pre-Training enables Llama3-8B to be comparable to or even outperform Llama3-70B.

General Pre-Training From Scratch

We augment the RefinedWeb corproa with instruction-response pairs generated by our context-based instruction synthesizer to pre-train general langauge models from scratch.

To evaluate our general base model using the lm-evaluation-harness framework

1. Setup dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness
cd lm-evaluation-harness
pip install -e .

2. Evalaute:

MODEL=instruction-pretrain/InstructLM-500M
add_bos_token=True # this flag is needed because lm-eval-harness set add_bos_token to False by default, but ours require add_bos_token to be True

accelerate launch -m lm_eval --model hf \
    --model_args pretrained=${MODEL},add_bos_token=${add_bos_token},dtype=float16  \
    --gen_kwargs do_sample=False \
    --tasks piqa,hellaswag,winogrande \
    --batch_size auto \
    --num_fewshot 0

accelerate launch -m lm_eval --model hf \
    --model_args pretrained=${MODEL},add_bos_token=${add_bos_token},dtype=float16 \
    --gen_kwargs do_sample=False \
    --tasks social_iqa,ai2_arc,openbookqa,boolq,mmlu \
    --batch_size auto \
    --num_fewshot 5
