Introduction

In-context learning (ICL) is one of the key methods for enhancing the performance of large language models on specific tasks by providing a set of few-shot question and answer examples. However, the ICL capability of different types of models shows significant variation due to factors such as model architecture, volume of learning data, and the size of parameters. Generally, the larger the model's parameter size and the more extensive the learning data, the stronger its ICL capability. In this paper, we propose a method SLEICL (Strong LLM Enhanced ICL) that involves learning from examples using strong language models and then summarizing and transferring these learned skills to weak language models for inference and application.

This ensures the stability and effectiveness of ICL. Compared to directly enabling weak language models to learn from prompt examples, SLEICL reduces the difficulty of ICL for these models. Our experiments, conducted on up to eight datasets with five language models, demonstrate that weak language models achieve consistent improvement over their own zero-shot or few-shot capabilities using the SLEICL method. Some weak language models even surpass the performance of GPT4-1106-preview (zero-shot) with the aid of SLEICL.

Project Structure

The project is organized into several key directories and modules. Here's an overview of the project structure:

.
├── archived      # Store the grimoire and hard samples used in our experiment.
├── assets        # Store project assets, such as images, diagrams, or any visual elements used to enhance the presentation and understanding of the project.
├── configs       # Store configuration files.
├── core          # Core codebase.
│   ├── data      # Data processing module.
│   ├── evaluator # Evaluator module.
│   └── llm       # Load Large Language Models (LLMs) module.
├── data          # Store datasets and data processing scripts.
├── external      # Store the Grimoire Ranking model based on the classifier approach.
├── outputs       # Store experiment output files.
├── prompts       # Store text files used as prompts when interacting with LLMs.
├── stats         # Store experiment statistical results.
└── tests         # Store test code or unit tests.

Get Started

  1. Prepare for the environment.
    • conda create -n grimoire python=3.8.18
    • conda activate grimoire
    • pip install -r requirements.txt
  2. Run
  3. Configure
    • the llms in configs/llm.yaml.
    • the experiments in configs/experiment.yaml.
    • If it is necessary to reproduce our experiment, you can load the grimoire and hard samples used in this experiment to the current path using the following command: cp -r ./archived/.cache ./.
  4. Look into experiments.py to see how to run experiments.
  5. Run analyst.py to analyze the results saved in outputs.
