Datasets

We have processed the datasets: ALCUNA, PARAREL, KAssess, CFACT and MMLU. The dataset file are provided in datasets.

Models

We use the weights provided by Huggingface. To modify the paths to your models and tokenizers， please change the model path in model_utils.py. An example of loading GPT-2 is given as follows.

    if model_id.startswith('gpt2'):
        path = "your path"
        model = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained(path)
        tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained(path, padding_side="left")

Experiments

To perform experiments on PGDC, run the following code:

 python run_search_prompt.py --model_id llama --iter_num 25 --dataset kass --real_data 1 --lr 5e-3 --ceil 9.9

To perform experiments with baseline methods, run the following code:

 python run_baseline_prompt.py

Hyper-parameters can be tuned in args.py.
