Training Language Models To Explain Their Own Computations

This is a Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct explainer model fine-tuned for the input ablations task for the Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct target model, as described in this paper. In the input ablations task, explainer models are trained to predict how removing "hint" tokens from an MMLU prompt with a hint changes the output of Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct. This helps in understanding the causal relationships between input components and model behavior.

To evaluate the explainer model on the input ablation task, you can use the evaluation script provided in the GitHub repository.

uv run --env-file .env evaluate.py \
  --config config/input_ablation/instruct_instruct_hint.yaml \
  --target_model_path meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct \
  --task hint_attribution \
  --model_path Transluce/input_ablation_llama3.1_8b_instruct_llama3.1_8b_instruct \
  --output_dir /PATH/TO/RESULTS/ \
  --batch_size 64
