Welcome, AI enthusiasts! In this guide, we’ll delve into the exciting world of neural networks with a hands-on approach to fine-tuning the Distilabeled OpenHermes 2.5 Mistral 7B model for better performance using quality datasets. Fine-tuning is essential for enhancing the capabilities of pre-trained models, and with our new dataset, argilla-distilabel-intel-orca-dpo-pairs, we’re set to achieve just that!
Getting Started
Before diving into the code, let’s set the stage. Imagine preparing a dish using a recipe. Just as you gather high-quality ingredients to make a delicious meal, we must also ensure we have top-notch datasets to optimize our model. OpenHermes 2.5 has already shown promise and our aim is to distill its performance even further!
Setting Up Your Environment
To start, you will need Python and essential libraries such as distilabel and datasets. If you haven’t set these up yet, here’s a simple installation command:
pip install distilabel datasets
Loading the Dataset
With your environment set up, let’s load our dataset. We will use the following code snippet to pull in argilla-distilabel-intel-orca-dpo-pairs:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset('argilladistilabel-intel-orca-dpo-pairs', split='train')
Fine-Tuning Process
In this step, we will perform the DPO fine-tuning using our dataset. Let’s break down the code and analogize it to preparing a multi-course meal:
- Ingredients Preparation: Just like washing and chopping ingredients, we need to shuffle the dataset to mitigate positional bias.
- Cooking Technique: We utilize the JudgeLM from Distilabel, akin to cooking styles, applying a method that analyzes and critiques the responses.
- Tasting: Finally, we generate outputs, evaluating our “dish” to ensure it meets our standards!
Here’s how we can execute this:
dataset = dataset.map(lambda x: shuffle_and_track(x['chosen'], x['rejected']))
labeler = OpenAILLM(task=JudgeLMTask(), model='gpt-4-1106-preview', num_threads=16, max_new_tokens=512)
dataset = dataset.rename_columns({'question': 'input'})
distipipe = Pipeline(labeller=labeler)
ds = distipipe.generate(dataset=dataset, num_generations=2)
Training Your Model
Next, we need to train our model using the refined dataset. This process is similar to the baking time needed to achieve perfect browning:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset('argilladistilabel-intel-orca-dpo-pairs', split='train')
dataset = dataset.filter(lambda r: r['status'] != 'tie' and r['chosen_score'] == 8 and not r['in_gsm8k_train'])
# The resulting dataset is now ready for training.
Benchmarking Your Model
Finally, we assess the trained model’s performance using standardized benchmarks. Just like evaluating a dish’s flavor with feedback from expert tasters:

argilladistilabeled-Hermes-2.5-Mistral-7B 44.64 73.35 55.96 42.21 54.04
Troubleshooting Tips
If you encounter problems while following these steps, consider the following troubleshooting ideas:
- Ensure your libraries are up-to-date with the command above.
- Check if the dataset paths are correct and accessible.
- If results seem off, revisiting your data filtering criteria can often reveal overlooked issues.
