Abstract:
Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) has emerged as a compelling approach for training Large Language Models (LLMs) to adhere to human preferences. However, the performance of DPO is sensitive to the fine-tuning of its trade-off parameter , as well as to the quality of the preference data. We analyze the impact of and data quality on DPO, uncovering that optimal values vary with the informativeness of pairwise data. Addressing the limitations of static values, we introduce a novel framework that dynamically calibrates at the batch level, informed by data quality considerations. Additionally, our method incorporates -guided data filtering to safeguard against the influence of outliers. Through empirical evaluation, we demonstrate that our dynamic adjustment technique significantly improves DPO’s performance across a range of models and datasets, offering a more robust and adaptable training paradigm for aligning LLMs with human feedback.
