How to Generate Multiple-Choice Questions Using H2O LLM Studio

Feb 6, 2024 | Educational

If you are an educator or a quiz enthusiast looking to automate the generation of multiple-choice questions (MCQs), the H2O LLM Studio provides an efficient solution. Leveraging a large language model trained on various prompts, this tool allows you to easily create detailed and relevant quiz questions based on the provided information. Let’s dive into the process!

Getting Started with H2O LLM Studio

To begin using the model for generating your MCQs, make sure to follow these steps:

Step 1: Installation

  • Ensure that you have Python installed on your machine.
  • Install the transformers library by running the following command:
  •     pip install transformers==4.31.0
        

Step 2: Set Your Hugging Face Token

If the model is in a private repository, you will need to authenticate yourself. You can either log in using your access token or pass it directly when creating a pipeline:

  • To log in, use the following commands:
  •     
        import huggingface_hub
        huggingface_hub.login(ACCES_TOKEN)
        
        
  • Or, when defining the model in a pipeline:
  •     token=True
        

Step 3: Generating MCQs

With everything set up, you can generate your MCQs. Here’s a simple analogy to illustrate the process:

Think of the model as a chef in a kitchen (the computer). You provide the chef with the recipe (input document) and the necessary ingredients (data). The chef then combines these elements to create a delectable dish (your MCQs).

Here’s how to implement this:


from transformers import pipeline

generate_text = pipeline(
    model="fbellame/llama2-pdf-to-quizz-13b",
    torch_dtype='auto',
    trust_remote_code=True,
    use_fast=True,
    device_map='cuda:0',
    token=True,
)

# Example document to generate a question
document = "In 1229, the King had to struggle with a long lasting strike at the University of Paris."
question = "What was the cause of the strike at the University of Paris in 1229?"

# Generating the question
res = generate_text(question, min_new_tokens=2, max_new_tokens=256)

# Printing the result
print(res[0]['generated_text'])

Troubleshooting

Here are some common issues you might encounter and how to resolve them:

  • Issue: Model not found error.
  • Solution: Ensure that the model path is correct and that you are logged into the Hugging Face Hub if you’re using a private model.
  • Issue: Insufficient GPU memory.
  • Solution: Consider using quantization by specifying load_in_8bit=True when loading your model.
  • Issue: The generated questions lack relevance.
  • Solution: Make sure your input document is clear and concise, and that your question aligns well with the provided context.
