Base Model: meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct
Overview
The General Preference Representation Model (GPM) improves preference-based reward modeling by embedding responses into a latent space to efficiently capture complex, intransitive human preferences. GPM achieves linear query complexity, allowing for expressive preference representation, and outperforms traditional Bradley-Terry (BT) reward models, particularly in handling cyclic preferences.
Key Features
- Preference Representation Learning: Embeds responses in a multi-dimensional latent space to model intricate human preferences, including cyclic and intransitive structures.
- Efficient Querying: Reduces computational complexity to O(K), compared to O(K²) for traditional methods, making GPM scalable for large response sets.
- General Preference Optimization (GPO): Introduces a preference score that integrates with reinforcement learning methods to optimize policy alignment with human preferences.
Evaluation
The GPM is evaluated using the RewardBench leaderboard, showing significant improvements over the BT model, with a performance margin of up to 5.6%. GPM also excels in modeling cyclic preferences, achieving 100% accuracy on cyclic datasets.
