Self-Refine: Iterative Refinement with Self-Feedback

With Self-Refine, LLMs can generate feedback on their work, use it to improve the output, and repeat this process.

Setup

  • We use prompt-lib for querying LLMs. You can install prompt-lib by running the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/reasoning-machines/prompt-lib
pip install prompt-lib/

Depending on your default settings, you may want to use the following to set a PYTHONPATH:

export PYTHONPATH=".:../:.:src:../:../../:.:prompt-lib"

Getting Started with Acronym Generation

python -u src/acronym/run.py "Using language models of code for few-shot commonsense"
  • Since we sample with temperature 0.7, you'll get different results each time you run the above command.
0 INIT> Using language models of code for few-shot commonsense

Dialogue Response Generation

PYTHONPATH="." python -u src/responsegen/run.py --output <OUTPUT FILE> --size <DATA SIZE>
  • Use size 0 for running on all test instances

Code Readability Improvement

  • Note: Please unzip 'data/tasks/codeclean/code_readability/codenet-python-train.jsonl.zip' before running the following commands!
  • Running:
PYTHONPATH="." python -u src/readability/readability.py --output <OUTPUT FILE>
  • Evaluation:
PYTHONPATH="." python -u src/readability/{count_comment|count_function|count_meaningful_var}.py --file <INPUT FILE>

Commongen

  • We use a hard version of commongen. The data is located in data/prompt/commongen. You can download the data by running the following commands:
python -u src/commongen/run.py cmd stair bubble team dryer puppy aliens cat

GSM-8k

  • To run the GSM-8k task:
python -u src/gsm/run.py

  • The outputs will be saved in data/tasks/gsm/gsm_outputs.jsonl

  • To evaluate the outputs:

python src/gsm/gsm_selfref_eval.py --path  data/tasks/gsm/gsm_outputs.jsonl
  • The evaluation script will also generate a report (data/tasks/gsm/gsm_outputs.jsonl.reports.txt) showing examples of wrong generations, feedback, and refined feedback generations.

Yelp

  • To run the Yelp task:
python -u src/sentiment_transfer_sr/run.py data/tasks/yelp/yelp-extreme.jso
nl 4 none
  • The outputs will be saved in data/tasks/yelp/

PIE

  • To run the PIE task:
python -u src/pie/run.py --slow_programs_file data/tasks/pie/codenet-python-test-1k.jsonl --max_attempts 4 --outfile data/tasks/pie/output --feedback_type rich

General setup

  • Each task has three different types of prompts:

  1. Init: used to initialize the task. This is how the initial output is generated.

  2. Feedback: used to get feedback from the model on the intermediate results.

  3. Iterate: used to get the next iteration from the model, based on the feedback.

  • Every task has a run.py that initializes the prompts and runs the task.

  • As an example, the prompts for commongen are as follows:

  1. Init prompt:
python src/commongen/task_init.py
  1. Feedback prompt:
 python src/commongen/feedback.py
  1. Iterate prompt:
python src/commongen/task_iterate.py

You can also see these prompts on our website.
