Auto Evaluation Toolkit

Automatically evaluate your model and monitor changes of metrics during the training process.

Preparation

  1. Multiple GPU machines (at least 2, one for evaluation, the other for training).

  2. Mount a shared file system (e.g., NAS) to the same path (e.g., /mnt/shared) on the above machines.

  3. Install Data-Juicer in the shared file system (e.g., /mnt/shared/code/data-juicer).

  4. Install thirdparty dependencies (Megatron-LM and HELM) accoroding to thirdparty/README.md on each machine.

  5. Prepare your dataset and tokenizer, preprocess your dataset with Megatron-LM into mmap format (see README of Megatron-LM for more details) in the shared file system (e.g., /mnt/shared/dataset).

  6. Run Megatron-LM on training machines and save the checkpoint in the shared file system (e.g., /mnt/shared/checkpoints).

Usage

Use evaluator.py to automatically evaluate your models with HELM and OpenAI API.

python tools/evaluator.py  \
    --config <config>      \
    --begin-iteration     <begin_iteration>     \
    [--end-iteration      <end_iteration>]      \
    [--iteration-interval <iteration_interval>] \
    [--check-interval <check_interval>]         \
    [--model-type     <model_type>]             \
    [--eval-type      <eval_type>]
  • config: a yaml file containing various settings required to run the evaluation (see Configuration for details)
  • begin_iteration: iteration of the first checkpoint to be evaluated
  • end_iteration: iteration of the last checkpoint to be evaluated. If not set, continuously monitor the training process and evaluate the generated checkpoints.
  • iteration_interval: iteration interval between two checkpoints, default is 1000 iterations
  • check_interval: time interval between checks, default is 30 minutes
  • model_type: type of your model, support megatron and huggingface for now
    • megatron: evaluate Megatron-LM checkpoints (default)
    • huggingface: evaluate HuggingFace model, only support gpt eval type
  • eval-type: type of the evaluation to run, support helm and gpt for now
    • helm: evaluate your model with HELM (default), you can change the benchmarks to run by modifying the helm specific template file
    • gpt: evaluate your model with OpenAI API, more details can be found in gpt_eval/README.md.

e.g.,

python evaluator.py --config <config_file> --begin-iteration 2000 --iteration-interval 1000 --check-interval 10

will use HELM to evaluate a Megatron-LM checkpoint every 1000 iterations starting from iteration 2000, and check whether there is a new checkpoint meets the condition every 10 minutes.

After running the evaluator.py, you can use recorder/wandb_writer.py to visualize the evaluation results, more details can be found in recorder/README.md.
