Instruction-Tuning-Papers

A trend starts from Natrural-Instruction (ACL 2022), FLAN (ICLR 2022) and T0 (ICLR 2022).

What's the instruction-tuning? It aims to teach language models to follow natural language (including prompt, positive or negative examples, and constraints etc.), to perform better multi-task learning on training tasks and generalization on unseen tasks.
