# Introduction to Skywork Critic Series Models [**Skywork-Critic-Llama3.1-70B**](https://huggingface.co/Skywork/Skywork-Critic-Llama3.1-70B) and [**Skywork-Critic-Llama3.1-8B**](https://huggingface.co/Skywork/Skywork-Critic-Llama-3.1-8B), developed by the [SkyworkAI](https://huggingface.co/Skywork) Alignment Team, are advanced judge models that excel at pairwise preference evaluation. These models compare and assess input pairs, offering nuanced judgments on their relative quality or suitability. Leveraging their deep understanding of language and context, Skywork-Critic models provide valuable insights for various applications, including data improvement, evaluation, and reward modeling. # Training Details Skywork-Critic-Llama3.1-70B and Skywork-Critic-Llama3.1-8B are built on Meta [Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct) and [Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct) respectively. These models have undergone fine-tuning using a diverse array of high-quality datasets, including: - **Cleaned open-source data**: We utilize a high-quality subset of [HelpSteer2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nvidia/HelpSteer2), [OffsetBias](https://huggingface.co/datasets/NCSOFT/offsetbias), [WildGuard (adversarial)](https://huggingface.co/allenai/wildguard) and Magpie DPO series([Ultra](https://huggingface.co/datasets/argilla/magpie-ultra-v0.1),[Pro (Llama-3.1)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Magpie-Align/Magpie-Llama-3.1-Pro-DPO-100K-v0.1),[Pro](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Magpie-Align/Magpie-Pro-DPO-100K-v0.1),[Air](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Magpie-Align/Magpie-Air-DPO-100K-v0.1)). For more details, please refer to our [Skywork-Reward-Preference-80K-v0.1 dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Skywork/Skywork-Reward-Preference-80K-v0.1). Additionally, we integrate several open-source, high-quality critic datasets such as [Open-Critic-GPT](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Vezora/Open-Critic-GPT) into our training process. - **In-house human annotation data**: This includes both pointwise scoring across many dimensions for a single response and pairwise comparisons between two responses. Each dimension incorporates a rationale for the assigned score. Please note that manually labeled data is very expensive to obtain. We only have a few hundred manually labeled data points, all of which are in Chinese, so the ability to perform single rating might not be particularly strong. - **Synthetic critic data**: We use a similar appoarch to [**self-taught**](https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.02666). Specifically, we employed two methods to generate inferior responses for a given instruction: 1) Creating a similar instruction and then generating a response for this new instruction. 2) Introducing subtle errors into high-quality responses. - **Critic-related chat data**: We incorporate critic-related chat data to maintain the model's conversational capabilities. The training employs instruction-tuning methodology, focusing on pairwise preference evaluation and general chat tasks. We have conducted a thorough verification process to ensure our training dataset does not contain any test set information from RewardBench, maintaining the integrity of our evaluation results. # RewardBench Leaderboard for Generative Models We evaluate our models on [RewardBench](https://huggingface.co/spaces/allenai/reward-bench) using the [official test script](https://github.com/allenai/reward-bench). As of September 2024, Skywork-Critic-Llama3.1-70B **ranks first** on RewardBench for generative models across all sizes, while Skywork-Critic-Llama3.1-8B tops the list for generative models under 10B parameters.

The first simply asks the model to determine whether the response from model A or B is better, while the second prompt, using # to indicate this prompt, requires the model not only to choose the better response but also to provide specific reasoning. Surprisingly, the first approach yielded higher accuracy. Accurately generating critique explanations remains a challenge for the critic model and will be a key focus of our future research. # Demo Code Below is an example of obtaining the critic of two conversations. ```python import torch from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer # An Example Case prompt = "Jane has 12 apples. She gives 4 apples to her friend Mark, then buys 1 more apple, and finally splits all her apples equally among herself and her 2 siblings. How many apples does each person get?" responseA = "1. Jane starts with 12 apples and gives 4 to Mark. 12 - 4 = 8. Jane now has 8 apples.\n2. Jane buys 1 more apple. 8 + 1 = 9. Jane now has 9 apples.\n3. Jane splits the 9 apples equally among herself and her 2 siblings (3 people in total). 9 ÷ 3 = 3 apples each. Each person gets 3 apples." responseB = "1. Jane starts with 12 apples and gives 4 to Mark. 12 - 4 = 8. Jane now has 8 apples.\n2. Jane buys 1 more apple. 8 + 1 = 9. Jane now has 9 apples.\n3. Jane splits the 9 apples equally among her 2 siblings (2 people in total). 9 ÷ 2 = 4.5 apples each. Each person gets 4 apples." # feed a natural language prompt to generative model prompt_template = """Please act as an impartial judge and evaluate the quality of the responses provided by two AI assistants to the user question displayed below.
