This project focuses on fine-tuning pre-trained language models to create efficient and accurate models for legal practice.

Fine-tuning is the process of adapting a pre-trained model to perform specific tasks or cater to particular domains. It involves adjusting the model's parameters through a further round of training on task-specific or domain-specific data. While conventional fine-tuning strategies involve supervised learning with labeled data, instruction-based fine-tuning introduces a more structured and interpretable approach.

Instruction-based fine-tuning leverages the power of human-provided instructions to guide the model's behavior. These instructions can be in the form of text prompts, prompts with explicit task descriptions, or a combination of both. This approach allows for a more controlled and context-aware interaction with the LLM, making it adaptable to a multitude of specialized tasks.

Instruction-based fine-tuning significantly enhances the performance of LLMs in the following ways:

• Task-Specific Adaptation: LLMs, when fine-tuned with specific instructions, exhibit remarkable adaptability to diverse tasks. They can switch seamlessly between translation, summarization, and question-answering, guided by the provided instructions.
• Reduced Ambiguity: Traditional LLMs might generate ambiguous or contextually inappropriate responses. Instruction-based fine-tuning allows for a clearer and more context-aware generation, reducing the likelihood of nonsensical outputs.
• Efficient Knowledge Transfer: Instructions can encapsulate domain-specific knowledge, enabling LLMs to benefit from expert guidance. This knowledge transfer is particularly valuable in fields like tax practice, law, medicine, and more.
• Interpretability: Instruction-based fine-tuning also makes LLM behavior more interpretable. Since the instructions are human-readable, it becomes easier to understand and control model outputs.
• Adaptive Behavior: LLMs, post instruction-based fine-tuning, exhibit adaptive behavior that is responsive to both explicit task descriptions and implicit cues within the provided text.
