Instruction Finetuning for Leaderboard Generation from Empirical AI Research

Abstract: This study demonstrates the application of instruction finetuning of pretrained LLMs to automate the generation of AI research leaderboards, extracting (Task, Dataset, Metric, Score) quadruples from articles. It aims to streamline the dissemination of advancements in AI research by transitioning from traditional, manual community curation, or otherwise taxonomy-constrained natural language inference (NLI) models, to an automated, generative LLM-based approach. Utilizing the FLAN-T5 model, this research enhances LLMs' adaptability and reliability in information extraction, offering a novel method for structured knowledge representation.
