ORPO Trainer

Odds Ratio Preference Optimization (ORPO) by Jiwoo Hong, Noah Lee, and James Thorne studies the crucial role of SFT within the context of preference alignment. Using preference data the method posits that a minor penalty for the disfavored generation together with a strong adaption signal to the chosen response via a simple log odds ratio term appended to the NLL loss is sufficient for preference-aligned SFT.

Thus ORPO is a reference model-free preference optimization algorithm eliminating the necessity for an additional preference alignment phase thus saving compute and memory.

The official code can be found xfactlab/orpo.

Expected dataset format

The ORPO trainer expects a format identical to the DPO trainer, which should include three entries. These entries should be named as follows:

  • prompt
  • chosen
  • rejected

for example:

orpo_dataset_dict = {
    "prompt": [
        "hello",
        "how are you",
        "What is your name?",
        "What is your name?",
        "Which is the best programming language?",
        "Which is the best programming language?",
        "Which is the best programming language?",
    ],
    "chosen": [
        "hi nice to meet you",
        "I am fine",
        "My name is Mary",
        "My name is Mary",
        "Python",
        "Python",
        "Java",
    ],
    "rejected": [
        "leave me alone",
        "I am not fine",
        "Whats it to you?",
        "I dont have a name",
        "Javascript",
        "C++",
        "C++",
    ],
}

where the prompt contains the context inputs, chosen contains the corresponding chosen responses and rejected contains the corresponding negative (rejected) responses. Note that a prompt can have multiple responses and this is reflected in the entries being repeated in the dictionary’s value arrays.

Expected model format

The ORPO trainer expects a model of AutoModelForCausalLM, compared to PPO that expects AutoModelForCausalLMWithValueHead for the value function.

Using the ORPOTrainer

For a detailed example have a look at the examples/scripts/orpo.py script. At a high level we need to initialize the ORPOTrainer with a model we wish to train. Note that ORPOTrainer eliminates the need to use the reference model, simplifying the optimization process. The beta refers to the hyperparameter lambda in eq. (6) of the paper and refers to the weighting of the relative odd ratio loss in the standard cross-entropy loss used for SFT.

orpo_config = ORPOConfig(
    beta=0.1, # the lambda/alpha hyperparameter in the paper/code
)

orpo_trainer = ORPOTrainer(
    model,
    args=orpo_config,
    train_dataset=train_dataset,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
)

After this one can then call:

orpo_trainer.train()

Logging

While training and evaluating we record the following reward metrics:

  • rewards/chosen: the mean log probabilities of the policy model for the chosen responses scaled by beta

  • rewards/rejected: the mean log probabilities of the policy model for the rejected responses scaled by beta

  • rewards/accuracies: mean of how often the chosen rewards are > than the corresponding rejected rewards

  • rewards/margins: the mean difference between the chosen and corresponding rejected rewards

  • log_odds_chosen: the mean log odds ratio of the chosen responses over the rejected responses

  • log_odds_ratio: the mean of the log(sigmoid(log_odds_chosen))

  • nll_loss: the mean negative log likelihood loss from the SFT part of the loss over chosen responses

ORPOTrainer

class trl.ORPOTrainer

< >

( model: Union = None args: Optional = None data_collator: Optional = None train_dataset: Optional = None eval_dataset: Union = None tokenizer: Optional = None model_init: Optional = None callbacks: Optional = None optimizers: Tuple = (None, None) preprocess_logits_for_metrics: Optional = None peft_config: Optional = None compute_metrics: Optional = None )

Parameters

  • model (transformers.PreTrainedModel) — The model to train, preferably an AutoModelForSequenceClassification.
  • args (ORPOConfig) — The ORPO config arguments to use for training.
  • data_collator (transformers.DataCollator) — The data collator to use for training. If None is specified, the default data collator (DPODataCollatorWithPadding) will be used which will pad the sequences to the maximum length of the sequences in the batch, given a dataset of paired sequences.
  • train_dataset (datasets.Dataset) — The dataset to use for training.
  • eval_dataset (datasets.Dataset) — The dataset to use for evaluation.
  • tokenizer (transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerBase) — The tokenizer to use for training. This argument is required if you want to use the default data collator.
  • model_init (Callable[[], transformers.PreTrainedModel]) — The model initializer to use for training. If None is specified, the default model initializer will be used.
  • callbacks (List[transformers.TrainerCallback]) — The callbacks to use for training.
  • optimizers (Tuple[torch.optim.Optimizer, torch.optim.lr_scheduler.LambdaLR]) — The optimizer and scheduler to use for training.
  • preprocess_logits_for_metrics (Callable[[torch.Tensor, torch.Tensor], torch.Tensor]) — The function to use to preprocess the logits before computing the metrics.
  • peft_config (Dict, defaults to None) — The PEFT configuration to use for training. If you pass a PEFT configuration, the model will be wrapped in a PEFT model.
  • compute_metrics (Callable[[EvalPrediction], Dict], optional) — The function to use to compute the metrics. Must take a EvalPrediction and return a dictionary string to metric values.

Initialize ORPOTrainer.

build_tokenized_answer

< >

( prompt answer )

Llama tokenizer does satisfy enc(a + b) = enc(a) + enc(b). It does ensure enc(a + b) = enc(a) + enc(a + b)[len(enc(a)):]. Reference: https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness/pull/531#issuecomment-1595586257

concatenated_forward

< >

( model: Module batch: Dict )

Run the given model on the given batch of inputs, concatenating the chosen and rejected inputs together.

We do this to avoid doing two forward passes, because it’s faster for FSDP.

concatenated_inputs

< >

( batch: Dict is_encoder_decoder: bool = False label_pad_token_id: int = -100 padding_value: int = 0 device: Optional = None )

Concatenate the chosen and rejected inputs into a single tensor.

evaluation_loop

< >

( dataloader: DataLoader description: str prediction_loss_only: Optional = None ignore_keys: Optional = None metric_key_prefix: str = 'eval' )

Overriding built-in evaluation loop to store metrics for each batch. Prediction/evaluation loop, shared by Trainer.evaluate() and Trainer.predict().

Works both with or without labels.

get_batch_logps

< >

( logits: FloatTensor labels: LongTensor average_log_prob: bool = False label_pad_token_id: int = -100 is_encoder_decoder: bool = False )

Compute the log probabilities of the given labels under the given logits.

get_batch_loss_metrics

< >

( model batch: Dict train_eval: Literal = 'train' )

Compute the ORPO loss and other metrics for the given batch of inputs for train or test.

get_batch_samples

< >

( model batch: Dict )

Generate samples from the model and reference model for the given batch of inputs.

log

< >

( logs: Dict )

Parameters

  • logs (Dict[str, float]) — The values to log.

Log logs on the various objects watching training, including stored metrics.

odds_ratio_loss

< >

( policy_chosen_logps: FloatTensor policy_rejected_logps: FloatTensor ) → A tuple of three tensors

Returns

A tuple of three tensors

(losses, chosen_rewards, rejected_rewards). The losses tensor contains the ORPO loss for each example in the batch. The chosen_rewards and rejected_rewards tensors contain the rewards for the chosen and rejected responses, respectively. The log odds ratio of the chosen responses over the rejected responses ratio for logging purposes. The log(sigmoid(log_odds_chosen)) for logging purposes.

Compute ORPO’s odds ratio (OR) loss for a batch of policy and reference model log probabilities.

tokenize_row

< >

( feature model: Union = None )

Tokenize a single row from a ORPO specific dataset.

At this stage, we don’t convert to PyTorch tensors yet; we just handle the truncation in case the prompt + chosen or prompt + rejected responses is/are too long. First we truncate the prompt; if we’re still too long, we truncate the chosen/rejected.

We also create the labels for the chosen/rejected responses, which are of length equal to the sum of the length of the prompt and the chosen/rejected response, with label_pad_token_id for the prompt tokens.
