MonolingualTripletGenerator

Generate monolingual triplets with an LLM to later on train an embedding model.

MonolingualTripletGenerator is a GeneratorTask that generates monolingual triplets with an LLM to later on train an embedding model. The task is based on the paper "Improving Text Embeddings with Large Language Models" and the data is generated based on the provided attributes, or randomly sampled if not provided.

Attributes

  • language: The language of the data to be generated, which can be any of the languages retrieved from the list of XLM-R in the Appendix A of https://aclanthology.org/2020.acl-main.747.pdf.

  • unit: The unit of the data to be generated, which can be sentence, phrase, or passage. Defaults to None, meaning that it will be randomly sampled.

  • difficulty: The difficulty of the query to be generated, which can be elementary school, high school, or college. Defaults to None, meaning that it will be randomly sampled.

  • high_score: The high score of the query to be generated, which can be 4, 4.5, or 5. Defaults to None, meaning that it will be randomly sampled.

  • low_score: The low score of the query to be generated, which can be 2.5, 3, or 3.5. Defaults to None, meaning that it will be randomly sampled.

  • seed: The random seed to be set in case there's any sampling within the format_input method.
