The paper proposes a progressive learning framework that enables large language models (LLMs) to autonomously refine their training data, without requiring input from either a more advanced model or human-annotated data. The method starts with supervised fine-tuning on a selective small but high-quality dataset, followed by preference optimization on contrastive samples identified by the strong model itself. Experimental results show that this approach significantly enhances the reasoning capabilities of Llama2-70b using three separate weak models.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper introduces a new way for large language models to learn and improve without needing help from more advanced models or humans. The method uses a combination of supervised learning and optimization techniques to refine the model’s training data. This helps the model learn better and make more accurate decisions. The results show that this approach can be very effective in improving the performance of Llama2-70b.
