Enable separation to different parameters in task_data.source

Closed this issue · 4 comments

Currently, the field source of task_data is a single str with a combination of different parameters (system_prompt, instruction, demos...) . Therefore there is no way to get each of those parameters separately for score computing without assuming the use of some template or format. It could be nice if unitxt could support separate access for each of those parameters and also for each ICL demo.

@Aya168 Do you need the original structure with the task_data of each demonstration, or this general chat format will do:

chat = [
    {
        "role": "system",
        "content": "You are a friendly chatbot who always responds in the style of a pirate",
    },
  {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"},
  {"role": "assistant", "content": "I'm doing great. How can I help you today?"},
  {"role": "user", "content": "I'd like to show off how chat templating works!"},
]

@elronbandel , we're talking about an instruction prompt that includes a system prompt and/or multiple demos part, and the user prompt. Would we know how to map your general format to those parts? Would your format map to the following?

The system prompt:

    {
        "role": "system",
        "content": "You are a friendly chatbot who always responds in the style of a pirate",
    },

The demos:

  {"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"},
  {"role": "assistant", "content": "I'm doing great. How can I help you today?"},

The user prompt:
{"role": "user", "content": "I'd like to show off how chat templating works!"},

Our problem is that we want our system prompt and ICL demos to be dynamic so we can't use format to define them. For example, we run the metric from fm-eval with the following command:

python ./fm_eval/runnables/run_text2text.py --do_predict True --max_predict_samples 20 --max_train_samples 3 --max_eval_samples 0 --model_name_or_path bam/ibm/granite-20b-code-instruct-unified-api --per_device_eval_batch_size 8 --generation_max_length 128 --max_source_length 2048 --max_target_length 128 --task_name "card=cards.privacy.prompt_leakage.rag_dataset,template_card_index=just_text,system_prompt=system_prompts.models.alpaca,num_demos=2,demos_pool_size=10" --experiment_id 0 --output_dir ./outputs/privacy_prompt_leakage --seed 1 --log_level info
and then we want to compute a score according to the chosen system_prompt and the specific ICLs from the dataset. The problem is that in the compute method of the metric we don't get them separately, only united together in source.
For example, we get the following str in task_data.source:

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
How did Gunnar Nelson win the fight against Zak Cummings at UFC Fight Night 46?
Gunnar Nelson won the fight against Zak Cummings at UFC Fight Night 46 by taking his opponent to the mat, seizing his back and locking in a rear-naked choke, forcing Cummings to tap with only twelve seconds of the second round remaining.

What is the main difference between the National Sample Survey (NSS) and the India Human Development Survey (IHDS) in terms of measuring India's inequality?
The main difference between the NSS and the IHDS in terms of measuring India's inequality is that the NSS focused on consumption, that is, how much people actually consume, while the IHDS is based on income. The NSS was showing consistently lower rates of growth and higher poverty, while the IHDS revealed a higher level of inequality, similar to Latin American countries.

    and we would like get:
    system_prompt:

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

ICL demo1:

Gunnar Nelson won the fight against Zak Cummings at UFC Fight Night 46 by taking his opponent to the mat, seizing his back and locking in a rear-naked choke, forcing Cummings to tap with only twelve seconds of the second round remaining.

ICL demo2:

The main difference between the NSS and the IHDS in terms of measuring India's inequality is that the NSS focused on consumption, that is, how much people actually consume, while the IHDS is based on income.

In the main branch of unitxt they now appear separated in a list in task_data/demos, this was accomplished in #1206.
