Topic:

Get a conceptual understanding of Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), as well as the datasets needed for this technique

Fine-tune the Llama 2 model using RLHF with the open source Google Cloud Pipeline Components Library

Evaluate tuned model performance against the base model with evaluation methods

Instructor: Nikita Namjoshi

What you’ll learn in this course

Large language models (LLMs) are trained on human-generated text, but additional methods are needed to align an LLM with human values and preferences.

Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) is currently the main method for aligning LLMs with human values and preferences. RLHF is also used for further tuning a base LLM to align with values and preferences that are specific to your use case.

In this course, you will gain a conceptual understanding of the RLHF training process, and then practice applying RLHF to tune an LLM. You will:

• Explore the two datasets that are used in RLHF training: the “preference” and “prompt” datasets.
• Use the open source Google Cloud Pipeline Components Library, to fine-tune the Llama 2 model with RLHF.
• Assess the tuned LLM against the original base model by comparing loss curves and using the “Side-by-Side (SxS)” method.

Lesson1: How does RLHF work

一种是把{Input text, Summary}作为输入，训练模型

但是每个人的summary都不一样，此时需要的是把几个summary的候选项都喂给模型，然后给出人们的preference

几个步骤

Reward model在训练和推理时候的不同之处：

completion是base LLM的输出

在RL loop中用奖励模型来fine tune大模型

Lesson 2: Datasets For Reinforcement Learning Training

Loading and exploring the datasets

“Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback” (RLHF) requires the following datasets:

• Preference dataset
  • Input prompt, candidate response 0, candidate response 1, choice (candidate 0 or 1)
• Prompt dataset
  • Input prompt only, no response

Preference dataset

preference_dataset_path = 'sample_preference.jsonl'

import json

preference_data = []

with open(preference_dataset_path) as f:
    for line in f:
        preference_data.append(json.loads(line))

Lesson 3: Tune an LLM with RLHF

Project environment setup

The RLHF training process has been implemented in a machine learning pipeline as part of the (Google Cloud Pipeline Components) library. This can be run on any platform that supports KubeFlow Pipelines (an open source framework), and can also run on Google Cloud’s Vertex AI Pipelines.

To run it locally, install the following:

!pip3 install google-cloud-pipeline-components
!pip3 install kfp

Compile the pipeline

# Import (RLHF is currently in preview)
from google_cloud_pipeline_components.preview.llm \
import rlhf_pipeline

# Import from KubeFlow pipelines
from kfp import compiler

这行代码导入了 kfp 包中的 compiler 模块。KFP 是指 Kubeflow Pipelines，它是一个用于机器学习工作流程的开源平台。而 compiler 模块则提供了一些功能，用于将机器学习工作流程编译成可在 Kubernetes 上执行的形式。

通常，使用 kfp.compiler 模块可以将定义为 Python 函数的机器学习工作流程编译成 Kubernetes 执行的规范格式。这使得可以将机器学习工作流程部署到 Kubernetes 上运行，并且可以与 Kubeflow Pipelines 中的其他组件集成。

对KubeFlow的解释：

Kubeflow 是一个开源的机器学习（ML）工作流程工具包，旨在使在 Kubernetes 上部署、管理和扩展机器学习工作流程变得更加简单。Kubernetes 是一个用于自动化部署、扩展和管理容器化应用程序的开源平台，而 Kubeflow 则是专门为机器学习工作负载设计的 Kubernetes 的一套扩展。

Kubeflow 提供了一系列工具和组件，用于在 Kubernetes 上构建端到端的机器学习工作流程，包括：

1. Jupyter Notebooks: Kubeflow 提供了 Jupyter Notebook 服务，使得数据科学家可以在 Kubernetes 上使用 Notebooks 进行交互式的数据分析和模型训练。

2. TFJob: TFJob 是 Kubernetes 上的 TensorFlow 训练作业的自定义资源定义（CRD），用于在 Kubernetes 集群中运行 TensorFlow 训练任务。

3. Pipeline: Kubeflow Pipelines 是一个基于 Kubernetes 的编排引擎，用于构建和部署机器学习工作流程。它允许用户以可重复和可扩展的方式定义和执行端到端的机器学习工作流程。

4. Serving: Kubeflow Serving 允许用户轻松部署经过训练的模型作为 RESTful 服务，并自动处理模型版本控制、负载均衡和扩展。

5. Metadata: Kubeflow Metadata 是用于跟踪实验元数据和模型版本控制的工具，有助于管理和组织机器学习工作负载。

总的来说，Kubeflow 旨在为机器学习团队提供一个可扩展、灵活且易于管理的平台，以简化机器学习工作流程的开发、部署和管理。

# Define a path to the yaml file
RLHF_PIPELINE_PKG_PATH = "rlhf_pipeline.yaml"

# Execute the compile function
compiler.Compiler().compile(
    pipeline_func=rlhf_pipeline,
    package_path=RLHF_PIPELINE_PKG_PATH
)

# Print the first lines of the YAML file
!head rlhf_pipeline.yaml

Output

# PIPELINE DEFINITION
# Name: rlhf-train-template
# Description: Performs reinforcement learning from human feedback.
# Inputs:
#    deploy_model: bool [Default: True]
#    eval_dataset: str
#    instruction: str
#    kl_coeff: float [Default: 0.1]
#    large_model_reference: str
#    location: str [Default: '{{$.pipeline_google_cloud_location}}']

Note: to print the whole YAML file, use the following:

!cat rlhf_pipeline.yaml

Define the Vertex AI pipeline job

Define the location of the training and evaluation data

Previously, the datasets were loaded from small JSONL files, but for typical training jobs, the datasets are much larger, and are usually stored in cloud storage (in this case, Google Cloud Storage).

Note: Make sure that the three datasets are stored in the same Google Cloud Storage bucket.

parameter_values={
        "preference_dataset": \
    "gs://vertex-ai/generative-ai/rlhf/text_small/summarize_from_feedback_tfds/comparisons/train/*.jsonl",
        "prompt_dataset": \
    "gs://vertex-ai/generative-ai/rlhf/text_small/reddit_tfds/train/*.jsonl",
        "eval_dataset": \
    "gs://vertex-ai/generative-ai/rlhf/text_small/reddit_tfds/val/*.jsonl",
    ...

gs://vertex-ai 是一个 Google Cloud Storage (GCS) 存储桶的地址，用于存储与 Google Cloud Vertex AI 服务相关的数据、模型、元数据等。

Google Cloud Storage (GCS) 是 Google Cloud 平台上的一项云存储服务，它提供了高度可扩展的对象存储，允许您以安全、可靠且成本效益的方式存储数据。gs:// 开头的地址是用于指示文件路径或存储位置的一种约定，gs://vertex-ai 表示数据存储在 Google Cloud Storage 中的 vertex-ai 存储桶中。

Google Cloud Vertex AI 是 Google Cloud 平台上的一个服务，用于构建、部署和管理机器学习模型。在使用 Vertex AI 时，通常需要将数据、模型等资源存储在 Google Cloud Storage 中，以便 Vertex AI 可以访问并使用这些资源。因此，gs://vertex-ai 可能是存储在 Google Cloud Storage 中，用于支持 Vertex AI 服务的资源的路径。

Choose the foundation model to be tuned

In this case, we are tuning the Llama-2 foundational model, the LLM to tune is called large_model_reference.

In this course, we’re tuning the llama-2-7b, but you can also run an RLHF pipeline on Vertex AI to tune models such as: the T5x or text-bison@001.

parameter_values={
        "large_model_reference": "llama-2-7b",
        ...

Calculate the number of reward model training steps

reward_model_train_steps is the number of steps to use when training the reward model. This depends on the size of your preference dataset. We recommend the model should train over the preference dataset for 20-30 epochs for best results.

$$stepsPerEpoch=\lceil \frac{datasetSize}{batchSize}\rceil$$
$$trainSteps=stepsPerEpoch\times numEpochs$$

The RLHF pipeline parameters are asking for the number of training steps and not number of epochs. Here’s an example of how to go from epochs to training steps, given that the batch size for this pipeline is fixed at 64 examples per batch.

# Preference dataset size
PREF_DATASET_SIZE = 3000


# Batch size is fixed at 64
BATCH_SIZE = 64

import math
REWARD_STEPS_PER_EPOCH = math.ceil(PREF_DATASET_SIZE / BATCH_SIZE)
print(REWARD_STEPS_PER_EPOCH)  # 47

REWARD_NUM_EPOCHS = 30

# Calculate number of steps in the reward model training
reward_model_train_steps = REWARD_STEPS_PER_EPOCH * REWARD_NUM_EPOCHS

print(reward_model_train_steps) # 1410

Calculate the number of reinforcement learning training steps

The reinforcement_learning_train_steps parameter is the number of reinforcement learning steps to perform when tuning the base model.

• The number of training steps depends on the size of your prompt dataset. Usually, this model should train over the prompt dataset for roughly 10-20 epochs.
• Reward hacking: if given too many training steps, the policy model may figure out a way to exploit the reward and exhibit undesired behavior.

# Prompt dataset size
PROMPT_DATASET_SIZE = 2000


# Batch size is fixed at 64
BATCH_SIZE = 64

import math

RL_STEPS_PER_EPOCH = math.ceil(PROMPT_DATASET_SIZE / BATCH_SIZE)
print(RL_STEPS_PER_EPOCH) # 32

RL_NUM_EPOCHS = 10

# Calculate the number of steps in the RL training
reinforcement_learning_train_steps = RL_STEPS_PER_EPOCH * RL_NUM_EPOCHS


print(reinforcement_learning_train_steps) # 320

Define the instruction

• Choose the task-specific instruction that you want to use to tune the foundational model. For this example, the instruction is “Summarize in less than 50 words.”
• You can choose different instructions, for example, “Write a reply to the following question or comment.” Note that you would also need to collect your preference dataset with the same instruction added to the prompt, so that both the responses and the human preferences are based on that instruction.

“Reward hacking” 是指在强化学习中的一种问题，指的是智能体通过找到不完全符合任务目标但仍然能获得高奖励的策略来“欺骗”或“利用”奖励函数的情况。

在强化学习中，智能体的目标通常是通过最大化奖励函数来学习良好的策略。然而，如果奖励函数设计不当或者智能体能够发现一些奖励函数的漏洞，它可能会找到一些不符合任务真正目标的策略，但能够获得高奖励。这种行为可能会导致智能体学习到了错误的行为或策略。

举个例子，假设一个智能体被训练来玩一个游戏，游戏的奖励函数设计为给予智能体一定数量的奖励，只要它成功击败了游戏中的对手。智能体可能会发现一种“reward hacking”的策略，即不去学习如何击败对手，而是通过不断自杀来获得游戏结束的奖励，从而获得高奖励。

解决这个问题的方法包括设计更加准确和完善的奖励函数，以确保它能够真正反映出任务的目标，并且在训练过程中引入一些技术，如奖励函数的监督和调整，以减少智能体利用奖励函数漏洞的可能性。

Run the pipeline job on Vertex AI

Now that we have created our dictionary of values, we can create a PipelineJob. This just means that the RLHF pipeline will execute on Vertex AI. So it’s not running locally here in the notebook, but on some server on Google Cloud.

import google.cloud.aiplatform as aiplatform

aiplatform.init(project = PROJECT_ID,
                location = REGION,
                credentials = credentials)
                
# Look at the path for the YAML file
RLHF_PIPELINE_PKG_PATH  # 'rlhf_pipeline.yaml'

Create and run the pipeline job

• Here is how you would create the pipeline job and run it if you were working on your own project.

• This job takes about a full day to run with multiple accelerators (TPUs/GPUs), and so we’re not going to run it in this classroom.

• To create the pipeline job:

job = aiplatform.PipelineJob(
    display_name="tutorial-rlhf-tuning",
    pipeline_root=STAGING_BUCKET,
    template_path=RLHF_PIPELINE_PKG_PATH,
    parameter_values=parameter_values)

• To run the pipeline job:

job.run()

• The content team has run this RLHF training pipeline to tune the Llama-2 model, and in the next lesson, you’ll get to evaluate the log data to compare the performance of the tuned model with the original foundational model.

Lesson 4: Evaluate the Tuned Model

Project environment setup

• Install Tensorboard (if running locally)

!pip install tensorboard

ROUGE-L（Recall-Oriented Understudy for Gisting Evaluation - Longest Common Subsequence）是用于评估自动生成的摘要与参考摘要之间相似程度的一种指标。它是 ROUGE（Recall-Oriented Understudy for Gisting Evaluation）指标家族的一部分，旨在衡量自动生成的文本与参考文本之间的重叠程度。

ROUGE-L 的计算基于最长公共子序列（LCS）的概念。它测量了自动生成的文本和参考文本中最长公共子序列的长度，然后将其归一化为参考摘要的长度。因此，ROUGE-L 越高，表示自动生成的文本与参考摘要的匹配程度越高。

ROUGE-L 的计算方式使其更加偏向于考虑内容的一致性，而不是简单地匹配重复的词语或短语。因此，它通常被用于评估自动生成的摘要在保留原文核心信息的同时，也具有一定的连贯性和完整性。

ROUGE-L 在自然语言处理领域的自动摘要、机器翻译等任务中经常被用作评估指标，以评估生成的文本与人工参考文本之间的相似性。
