Team Overview

While LLMs are versatile and potent tools, their utility is contingent on the quality of the datasets used for training. Without adequate dataset’s to be used in the fine-tuning process, LLMs remain generic.

FORBES

"If large language models are able to generate their own training data and use it to continue self-improving, this could render irrelevant the data shortage. It would represent a mind-bending leap forward for LLMs"

LLM dataset creation demands specialized knowledge from domain-specific subject matter experts.

expert knowledge needed

High costs due to expert involvement and extensive labor hours incurred.

financially demanding

Fine-tuning LLMs with manual data labeling is a lengthy, labor-intensive process.

TIME CONSUMING effort

These current fine-tuning practices remain unideal.

Traditional methods to create datasets that fine-tune LLMs involve manual data labeling

Minimal human oversight streamlines and simplifies LLM dataset development. and eases time and finacial burdens

minimal oversight

Self-generated datasets facilitate automated, independent fine-tuning of LLMs.

self generated

Quality question-answer pairs for LLMs ensure an efficeint output.

Team APEX ventures to address this challange

There is a need for a streamlined approach to mitigate the status quo

Given the quantization of the model we found that resource efficency can be achieved using a single NVIDIA A100 40GB GPU.This also leaves room for overhead

Performance on outside instances (DEMO)

Here are some of ours:

Fools Gold

Small datasets can mislead model bias-variance evaluation

Split Decisions

Model sensitive to split choice

Precision Postponed

Minor impact on small datasets, better for final optimization efforts.

Ignorance (is not) Bliss

Higher rates improve robustness

Training Trifecta

Context, question, answer integration essential in fine-tuning.

Less is More

Larger models need more data, risk overfitting.

"The power of data lies not in its volume, but in its interpretation."

Justification

• Original Model Size (without quantization):• Each parameter uses 32 bits or 4 bytes. • For 3 billion parameters: 3B parameters × 4 bytes/parameter = 12B bytes. • 1 GB = (1.074B bytes) • the original size is 12B bytes / 1.074B bytes/GB ≈ 11.18 GB, rounded to 12 GB. • Reduced Model Size with 4-bit Quantization: • 8 bits = 1 byte (by definition) • 4 bits = 1 byte / 2 • 4 bits = 0.5 bytes • Quantization reduces each parameter to 4 bits, or 0.5 bytes. • For 3 billion parameters: 3B parameters × 0.5 bytes/parameter = 1.5B bytes. • The quantized size is 1.5B bytes / 1.074B bytes/GB ≈ 1.4 GB, approximated to 1.5 GB.
