self-long-instruct

The project to enhance the self-instruct method to long-context instruction tuning dataset auto-generation based on long-LLMs, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and LLMs-as-Agents

Base

• self-instruct:
  • paper link: here | github link: here
• Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG):
  • paper link: here | github link: here
• LLMs-as-Agents:
  • paper link: here | github link: here

Preparation

• install the pip dependences:

  pip install -r requirements.txt

• download the punkt from nltk :
  • method1: download through the api

    import nltk
    nltk.download('punkt')

  • method2: if the api fails, you can go to the github repo and follow the steps below:
    • step1: download the whole packages directory into your conda env path like /home/user/anaconda3/envs/myenv/ and rename it nltk_data
    • step2: unzip the zip files through the nltk_data, especially the tokenizers/ and taggers/, and to make it convenient, we also provide a function to do it automatically:

      from src.utils import unzip_nltk_data
      nltk_data_dir = "/home/user/anaconda3/envs/myenv/"
      unzip_nltk_data(nltk_data_dir, remove=True) 

• install the poppler tools to make pdf2image work (Assuming your OS is Linux, well if not, you can check pdf2image installation guide further):

  sudo apt-get install poppler-utils

• follow the guide here and install the LibreOffice tool to make unstructured.partition.doc work
