The proposed Modulated Intervention Preference Optimization (MIPO) method addresses the limitations of existing preference optimization techniques by dynamically adjusting the degree of intervention from a reference model based on the alignment between the given data and the model. By increasing or decreasing the intervention depending on the data’s alignment, MIPO ensures that the policy model stays aligned with the reference model while avoiding anomalous responses. This approach is demonstrated to outperform existing methods like DPO in various evaluation scenarios using popular models and datasets.

This paper proposes a new method for training language models called Modulated Intervention Preference Optimization (MIPO). The goal of MIPO is to improve how well a model generates text that aligns with what we want. Right now, there are some methods that use a “reference model” as a guide. But these methods can be limited if the reference model isn’t very good or needs to change a lot. MIPO helps by adjusting how much it follows the reference model based on how well they match up. This leads to better results and more consistent performance.
