AgentTuning: Enabling Generalized Agent Abilities For LLMs

🤗 Model (AgentLM-70B) • 🤗 Dataset (AgentInstruct) • 📃 Paper • 🌐 Project Page

AgentTuning represents the very first attempt to instruction-tune LLMs using interaction trajectories across multiple agent tasks. Evaluation results indicate that AgentTuning enables the agent capabilities of LLMs with robust generalization on unseen agent tasks while remaining good on general language abilities. We have open-sourced the AgentInstruct dataset and AgentLM.

AgentInstruct

AgentInstruct is a meticulously curated dataset featuring 1,866 high-quality interactions, designed to enhance AI agents across 6 diverse real-world tasks.

🔍 CoT - Harness the power of ReAct, offering detailed thought explanations for each action, ensuring an intricate understanding of the model's decision-making journey.
🌍 Diversity - Spanning 6 real-world scenarios, from Daily Household Routines to Database Operations, and their average turns range from 5 to 35.
🎯 Precision - Not all trajectories of GPT-4 are effective! Ours are rigorously filtered using strict rewards to ensure top-notch quality.
✅ Assurance - Rigorous checks to avoid data leakage, ensuring pristine dataset quality.

AgentInstruct dataset is available on 🤗Huggingface Repo.

AgentLM

AgentLM models are produced by mixed training on AgentInstruct dataset and ShareGPT dataset from Llama2-chat series.

The models follow the conversation format of Llama-2-chat, with system prompt fixed as You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant.

The 7B, 13B, and 70B models are available on Huggingface model hub.

Model	Huggingface Repo
AgentLM-7B	🤗Huggingface Repo
AgentLM-13B	🤗Huggingface Repo
AgentLM-70B	🤗Huggingface Repo

Run AgentLM

We use Text-Generation-Inference to accelerate the evaluation process.

You can start a AgentLM-70b instance with:

cd docker
docker compose -f agentlm-70b.yml up

Upon successful execution, a client will be available on port 30070. Here an example of launching a request:

curl 127.0.0.1:30070/generate \
    -X POST \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -d '{"inputs": "[INST] <<SYS>>\nYou are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant.\n<</SYS>>\n\nHello! [/INST]", "parameters":{"temperature": 1.0}}'

# {"generated_text":"Hello! How can I help you today? "}

You may replicate the services in docker compose file to multiple inference instance if more GPUs are available.

Evaluation

Here are details of our evaluation task, including 6 held-in tasks and 6 held-out tasks.

Held-in Tasks

The 6 held-in tasks are selected from AgentBench. However, since AgentBench is still under active development, the results from the latest branch might not fully reproduce the results reported in the paper. The evaluation code of this project is located in ./AgentBench.old.

Held-out Tasks

Held-out tasks are recompiled from the following frameworks:

Task	AgentTuning Setup	Original Repo
SciWorld	📂 eval_heldout/science-world	💻 allenai/ScienceWorld
MiniWoB++	📂 eval_heldout/miniwob++	💻 Farama-Foundation/miniwob-plusplus
HotpotQA	📂 eval_heldout/hotpotQA	💻 salesforce/BOLAA
ReWOO	📂 eval_heldout/rewoo	💻 billxbf/ReWOO
WebArena	📂 eval_heldout/webarena	💻 web-arena-x/webarena
Digital Card Game	💻 AgentBench.old ( Extend Split )	💻 THUDM/AgentBench

General Tasks

MMLU Setup:

Download the 14k multi-choice questions into ./data:

cd data
wget https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~hendrycks/data.tar
tar xf data.tar
cd ..

Evaluate Hf model(organization/name or ckpt path)by executing the evaluation script:
```
python eval_general/evaluate_mmlu_hf.py -c THUDM/AgentLM-70b
```

GSM8k Setup:

Start TGI worker
Run the evaluation
```
python eval_general/evaluate_gsm8k_tgi.py --port 30070
```
Use --sample-input-file to load a local dataset, or GSM8K will be loaded for evaluation.

MT-Bench Setup:

Install FastChat locally

git clone https://github.com/lm-sys/FastChat.git
pip install -e FastChat

Start TGI worker

Run the evaluation script:

python eval_general/eval_mt_bench_tgi.py --host 127.0.0.1 --port 30070 --model-id agentlm-70b

Evaluate the answers with GPT-4

cd FastChat/fastchat/llm_judge
OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-api-key> python gen_judgment.py --model-list agentlm-70b --parallel <number-of-cuncurrent-requests>
