每日一博 | 句子嵌入：交叉编码和重排序
这个系列目的是揭开嵌入的神秘面纱，并展示如何在你的项目中使用它们。第一篇博客介绍了如何使用和扩展开源嵌入模型，选择现有的模型，当前的评价方法，以及生态系统的发展状态。第二篇博客将会更一步深入嵌入并解释双向编码和交叉编码的区别。进一步我们将了解 检索和重排序 的理论。我们会构建一个工具，它可以来回答大约 400 篇 AI 的论文的问题。我们会在末尾大致讨论一下两个不同的论文。 你可以在这里阅读，或者通过点击左上角的图标在 Google Colab 中运行。现在我们正式开始学习！ 简短概述 Sentence Transformers 支持两种类型的模型: Bi-encoders 和 Cross-encoders。Bi-encoders 更快更可扩展，但 Cross-encoders 更准确。虽然两者都处理类似的高水平任务，但何时使用一个而不是另一个是相当不同的。Bi-encoders 更适合搜索，而 Cross-encoders 更适合分类和高精度排序。下面讲下细节 介绍 我们之前见过的模型都是双向编码器。双向编码器将输入文本编码成固定长度的向量。当我们计算两个句子的相似性时，我们通常将两个句子编码成两个向量，然后计算它们之间的相似性 (比如，使用余弦相似度)。我们训练双向编码器去优化，使得在问题和相关句子之间的相似度增加，而在其他句子之间的相似度减少。这也解释了为啥双向编码器更适合搜索。正如之前博客所说，双向编码器非常快，并且易于扩展。如果提供多个句子，双向编码器会独立编码每个句子。这意味着每个句子嵌入是互相独立的。这对于搜索来书是好的，因为我们可以并行编码数百万的句子。然而，这同样意味着双向编码器不知道任何关于句子之间的关系的知识。 当我们使用交叉编码，就会有所不同。交叉编码同时编码两个句子，并且输出一个分类分数。图示展示了它们之间的区别。 为啥使用这个而不用其他的？交叉编码更慢并且需要更多的内存，但同样更精确。一个交叉编码器对于比较几十个句子是一个很好的选择。如果我们要比较成千上万个句子，一个双向编码器是更好的选择，因为否则的话，它将会非常慢。如果你更在乎精度并且想高效的比较成千上万个句子呢？这有个当你想要检索信息的经典示例，在那个示例中，一个选择是首先使用双向编码器去减少候选数量 (比如，获取最相关的 20 个例子)，然后使用交叉编码器获得最终结果。这个也叫做重排序，在信息检索中是一个常用的技术。我们将在后面学习更多关于这个的内容。 由于交叉编码更精确，它同样适用于一些微小差异很重要的任务，比如医疗或者法律文档，其中一点微小的差异可以改变句子的整个意思。 交叉编码器 正如之前所说，交叉编码器同时编码两个句子，并输出一个分类标签。交叉编码器第一次生成一个单独的嵌入，它捕获了句子的表征和相关关系。与双向编码器生成的嵌入 (它们是独立的) 不同，交叉编码器是互相依赖的。这也是为什么交叉编码器更适合分类，并且其质量更高，他们可以捕获两个句子之间的关系！反过来说，如果你需要比较上千个句子的话，交叉编码器会很慢，因为他们要编码所有的句子对。 假如你有四个句子，并且你需要比较所有的可能对: 一个双向编码器需要独立编码每个句子，所以它需要编码四个句子。 一个交叉编码器需要同时编码所的句子对，所以它需要编码六个句子对 (AB, AC, AD, BC, BD, CD)。 让我们再扩展一下，如果你要 100,000 个句子，并且你需要比较所有的可能对: 一个双向编码器需要编码 100,000 个句子。 一个交叉编码器需要编码 4,999,950,000 个句子对。(用 组合数公式: n! / (r!(n-r)!) , 这里面 n = 100,000, r = 2) 所以扩展并不好 也难怪他们会更慢！ 尽管交叉编码器再分类层前有一个适度的嵌入，但这并没有用于相似性搜索。这是因为交叉编码器被训练来优化分类损失，而不是相似性损失。因此，嵌入是针对分类任务而设计的，并且不用于相似性任务。 他们可以被用于不同的任务。例如，对于段落检索 (给定一个问题和一个段落，段落是否与问题相关)。让我们看一个快速代码片段，使用一个小的交叉编码模型训练这个: !pipinstallsentence_transformersdatasets fromsentence_transformersimportCrossEncodermodel=CrossEncoder('cross-encoder/ms-marco-TinyBERT-L-2-v2',max_length=512)scores=model.predict([('HowmanypeopleliveinBerlin?','Berlinhadapopulationof3,520,031registeredinhabitantsinanareaof891.82squarekilometers.'),('HowmanypeopleliveinBerlin?','Berliniswellknownforitsmuseums.')])scores array([ 7.152365 , -6.2870445], dtype=float32) 另一个用例，用交叉编码做语义相似度，跟我们用双向编码器的结果很相似。比如，给定两个句子，他们语义上相似吗？尽管这个任务跟我们用双向编码器解决的任务是一样的，但是交叉编码器更准确，更慢。 model=CrossEncoder('cross-encoder/stsb-TinyBERT-L-4')scores=model.predict([("Theweathertodayisbeautiful","It'sraining!"),("Theweathertodayisbeautiful","Todayisasunnyday")])scores array([0.46552283, 0.6350213 ], dtype=float32) 检索和重排序 现在我们已经了解了交叉编码器和双向编码器的不同，让我们看看如何使在实践中用它们来构建一个检索和重排序系统。这是一个常见的信息检索技巧，首先检索最相关的文档然后用一个更精确的模型进行重排序。这对于高效比较成千个句子的查询是个不错的选择并且更加注重精度。 假设你有一个有 100，000 个句子的语料库并且想要对给定查询找到最相关的句子。第一步就是使用双向编码器去检索很多候选 (为了确保召回)。然后，使用交叉编码器去重新排序候选并且得到最终的带有高精度的结果。这是高层次上看这个系统的样子 让我们试一试执行一个论文搜索系统！我们将使用一个 AI Arxiv 数据集，这个是在 Pinecone 上关于重排序极好的教程 。其目的是问 AI 一个 问题，我们获得最相关的论文部分并且回答问题。 fromdatasetsimportload_datasetdataset=load_dataset("jamescalam/ai-arxiv-chunked")dataset["train"] Found cached dataset json (/home/osanseviero/.cache/huggingface/datasets/jamescalam___json/jamescalam--ai-arxiv-chunked-0d76bdc6812ffd50/0.0.0/8bb11242116d547c741b2e8a1f18598ffdd40a1d4f2a2872c7a28b697434bc96) 0%| | 0/1 [00:00<?, ?it/s]Dataset({ features: ['doi', 'chunk-id', 'chunk', 'id', 'title', 'summary', 'source', 'authors', 'categories', 'comment', 'journal_ref', 'primary_category', 'published', 'updated', 'references'], num_rows: 41584}) 如果你检查了数据集，它是一个划分切块好的 400 篇 Arxiv 论文，切块意味着每个部分被分成更小的部分，以使模型更容易处理。这里是一个样本: dataset["train"][0] {'doi': '1910.01108', 'chunk-id': '0', 'chunk': 'DistilBERT, a distilled version of BERT: smaller,\nfaster, cheaper and lighter\nVictor SANH, Lysandre DEBUT, Julien CHAUMOND, Thomas WOLF\nHugging Face\n{victor,lysandre,julien,thomas}@huggingface.co\nAbstract\nAs Transfer Learning from large-scale pre-trained models becomes more prevalent\nin Natural Language Processing (NLP), operating these large models in on-theedge and/or under constrained computational training or inference budgets remains\nchallenging.

In this appendix, we compare that with simply prompting the base code model with a sample of prompts designed toelicit helpfulness, harmlessness, and honesty, which we refer to as ‘HHH’ prompts. In particular, they containa couple of coding examples. Below is a description of what this prompt looks like:Below are a series of dialogues between various people and an AI assistant. The AI tries to be helpful,Top 2 passage with score 0.9574587345123291 from http://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.07459:We examine the influence of the amount of RLHF training for two reasons. First, RLHF [13, 57] is anincreasingly popular technique for reducing harmful behaviors in large language models [3, 21, 52]. Some ofthese models are already deployed [52], so we believe the impact of RLHF deserves further scrutiny. Second,previous work shows that the amount of RLHF training can significantly change metrics on a wide range ofpersonality, political preference, and harm evaluations for a given model size [41]. As a result, it is importantto control for the amount of RLHF training in the analysis of our experiments.3.2 Experiments3.2.1 OverviewWe test the effect of natural language instructions on two related but distinct moral phenomena: stereotypingand discrimination. Stereotyping involves the use of generalizations about groups in ways that are oftenharmful or undesirable.4To measure stereotyping, we use two well-known stereotyping benchmarks, BBQ[40] (§3.2.2) and Windogender [49] (§3.2.3). For discrimination, we focus on whether models make disparatedecisions about individuals based on protected characteristics that should have no relevance to the outcome.5To measure discrimination, we construct a new benchmark to test for the impact of race in a law school courseTop 3 passage with score 0.9408788084983826 from http://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.07842:preferences and values which are difficult to capture by hard- coded reward functions.RLHF works by using a pre-trained LM to generate text, which i s then evaluated by humans by, for example,ranking two model generations for the same prompt.

In such cases, RLHF is typically applied afte r an initial supervised fine-tuning phase usinga small number of expert demonstrations for the correspondi ng downstream task ( Ramamurthy et al. ,2022;Ouyang et al. ,2022;Stiennon et al. ,2020).A successful example of RLHF used to teach a LM to use an extern al tool stems from WebGPT Nakano et al.(2021) (discussed in 3.2.3), a model capable of answering questions using a search engine and providing 棒极了！这个结果似乎跟问题相关。我们还能做些什么来改进结果？ 这里我们使用了 cross-encoder/ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2, 这个模型已经有三年历史了，并且很小。它是 很多年前的最好的重新排序模型之一。 对于选择模型，我建议去 MTEB leaderboard，点击 reranking，选择一个适合你需求的模型。平均列可以很好地代表总体质量，但你可能对数据集特别感兴趣 (例如，检索选项卡中的 MSMarco) 注意，模型老模型，比如 MiniLM, 并不在那里。另外，并不是所有的模型都是交叉编码器，所以总是要实验，如果增加第二阶段，更慢的重新排序器是否值得。这里有一些有趣的发现: E5 Mistral 7B Instruct (2023 年 12 月): 这是一个基于解码器的嵌入 (不同于我们之前学的基于编码器的)。这一点很有趣，因为使用解码器而不是编码器是一个新趋势，这样可以容纳更长的文本。这里是 相关论文 BAAI Reranker (2023 年 9 月): 一个高质量重排序模型，其大小适中 (只有 278M 的参数)。让我们用这个模型获得结果并比较。 #Samecodeasbefore,justdifferentmodelcross_encoder=CrossEncoder('BAAI/bge-reranker-base')cross_inp=[[query,chunks[hit['corpus_id']]]forhitinhits]cross_scores=cross_encoder.predict(cross_inp)foridxinrange(len(cross_scores)):hits[idx]['cross-score']=cross_scores[idx]hits=sorted(hits,key=lambdax:x['cross-score'],reverse=True)bge_corpus_ids=[hit['corpus_id']forhitinhits]fori,hitinenumerate(hits[:3]):sample=dataset["train"][hit["corpus_id"]]print(f"Top{i+1}passagewithscore{hit['cross-score']}from{sample['source']}:")print(sample["chunk"])print("\n") Top 1 passage with score 0.9668010473251343 from http://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.05862:Stackoverflow Good Answer vs. Bad Answer Loss DifferencePython FTPython FT + RLHF(b)Difference in mean log-prob between good and badanswers to Stack Overflow questions.Figure 37 Analysis of RLHF on language modeling for good and bad Stack Overflow answers, over manymodel sizes, ranging from 13M to 52B parameters. Compared to the baseline model (a pre-trained LMfinetuned on Python code), the RLHF model is more capable of distinguishing quality (right) , but is worseat language modeling (left) .the RLHF models obtain worse loss. This is most likely due to optimizing a different objective rather thanpure language modeling.B.8 Further Analysis of RLHF on Code-Model SnapshotsAs discussed in Section 5.3, RLHF improves performance of base code models on code evals. In this appendix, we compare that with simply prompting the base code model with a sample of prompts designed toelicit helpfulness, harmlessness, and honesty, which we refer to as ‘HHH’ prompts. In particular, they containa couple of coding examples. Below is a description of what this prompt looks like:Below are a series of dialogues between various people and an AI assistant. The AI tries to be helpful,Top 2 passage with score 0.9574587345123291 from http://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.07459:We examine the influence of the amount of RLHF training for two reasons. First, RLHF [13, 57] is anincreasingly popular technique for reducing harmful behaviors in large language models [3, 21, 52]. Some ofthese models are already deployed [52], so we believe the impact of RLHF deserves further scrutiny. Second,previous work shows that the amount of RLHF training can significantly change metrics on a wide range ofpersonality, political preference, and harm evaluations for a given model size [41]. As a result, it is importantto control for the amount of RLHF training in the analysis of our experiments.3.2 Experiments3.2.1 OverviewWe test the effect of natural language instructions on two related but distinct moral phenomena: stereotypingand discrimination. Stereotyping involves the use of generalizations about groups in ways that are oftenharmful or undesirable.4To measure stereotyping, we use two well-known stereotyping benchmarks, BBQ[40] (§3.2.2) and Windogender [49] (§3.2.3). For discrimination, we focus on whether models make disparatedecisions about individuals based on protected characteristics that should have no relevance to the outcome.5To measure discrimination, we construct a new benchmark to test for the impact of race in a law school courseTop 3 passage with score 0.9408788084983826 from http://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.07842:preferences and values which are difficult to capture by hard- coded reward functions.RLHF works by using a pre-trained LM to generate text, which i s then evaluated by humans by, for example,ranking two model generations for the same prompt. This data is then collected to learn a reward modelthat predicts a scalar reward given any generated text. The r eward captures human preferences whenjudging model output. Finally, the LM is optimized against s uch reward model using RL policy gradientalgorithms like PPO ( Schulman et al. ,2017). RLHF can be applied directly on top of a general-purpose LMpre-trained via self-supervised learning. However, for mo re complex tasks, the model’s generations may notbe good enough.
