Core Concepts
CoachLM enhances instruction dataset quality through automatic revisions, improving LLM performance.
Abstract
The article discusses the importance of instruction tuning for Language Learning Models (LLMs) and introduces CoachLM, a novel approach to automatically revise low-quality samples in the dataset. By training CoachLM on expert-revised samples, the proportion of high-quality samples in the dataset significantly increases. The effectiveness of CoachLM is demonstrated on real-world instruction test sets, showing improved instruction-following capabilities of LLMs. The article also highlights the deployment of CoachLM at Huawei, resulting in efficiency improvements in data management systems.
