📰 TL;DR

How to effectively and efficiently obtain code preferences and judgements is an important yet under-studied topic!

To this end, our work provides:

  • CodeFavor: an open recipe to train code preference models with from-scratch data!
    • Commit-Instruct: code commits -> code preference
    • Critic-Evol: code critique & revising -> code preference
  • CodePrefBench: 1364 code preference tasks covering both verifiable and human objectives:
    • Code Correctness
    • Code Efficiency
    • Code Security
    • Human Preference
  • Study: our paper provides comprehensive studies!
    • Human studies: quantifying the cost and performance of human preference based 18 developers
    • Case studies: our Appendix case-studies model preferences over code correctness, efficiency, and security
    • Controlled experiments: impact of data, comment, criteria, modeling, etc. on training preference models

🔎 Evaluation

Environment

  • Python requirements: 3.10 or higher.
conda create -n codefavor python=3.10
conda activate codefavor
pip install -r requirements.txt

CodePrefBench

# OpenAI server
python codefavor/evaluate.py --model-id "gpt-4o-2024-05-13" --model-type openai --concurrency 80
# Other OpenAI-compatible servers (vLLM, DeepSeek APIs, etc.)
python codefavor/evaluate.py --model-id "google/gemma-2-27b-it" --model-type openai --concurrency 80 --model-url http://localhost:8000/v1
# Claude models at Bedrock
python codefavor/evaluate.py --model-id "anthropic.claude-3-sonnet-20240229-v1:0" --model-type bedrock --concurrency 10
# Pairwise RM
python codefavor/evaluate.py --model-id ./models/mix-cls-mistral-7b-it_bs32_ep1_lr5e-6-l3-70b/checkpoint-688 --model-type pair-rm
  • Supported --model-type: huggingface, openai, bedrock, pair-rm, and google

🧪 Training

Environment

git clone https://github.com/axolotl-ai-cloud/axolotl.git axolotl-dep
cd axolotl-dep

pip install torch==2.3.0
pip install packaging ninja wandb
pip install -e '.[flash-attn,deepspeed]'

Use existing dataset

python scripts/axolotl/prepare_data.py \
    --decomposed-dataset datasets/train/editpackft-Llama-3-70B-Instruct.commit_instruct.decompose.jsonl \
    --judge-type classification --both-order
python scripts/axolotl/prepare_data.py \
    --decomposed-dataset datasets/train/Llama-3-8B-Instruct-SOSS.teacher.Llama-3-70B-Instruct.critic_evol.decompose.jsonl \
    --judge-type classification --both-order

Train models using Axolotl

accelerate launch -m axolotl.cli.train \
    scripts/axolotl/recipe/gemma/cls-commit-instruct-from-llama3-70b.yaml \
    --deepspeed scripts/axolotl/zero3.json
# or use `torchrun` if your `accelerate` is complaining
torchrun --nproc_per_node 8 -m axolotl.cli.train \
    scripts/axolotl/recipe/gemma/cls-commit-instruct-from-llama3-70b.yaml \
    --deepspeed scripts/axolotl/zero3.json
