gpt-neo-125M-nutrition

This model was trained using influence-guided dataset selection, a technique that uses influence scores to identify the most impactful training data for specific concepts.

Model Description

• Base Model: EleutherAI/gpt-neo-125m
• Training Concepts: nutrition analysis, dietary assessment, meal description parsing, food classification, macronutrient estimation
• Training Method: Influence-guided data selection
• Compute Budget: 100 steps per condition
• Total Datasets: 3

Training Approach

This model was trained using three different data selection strategies to validate the effectiveness of influence-guided training:

1. Positive Influence: Datasets with high positive influence scores (most aligned with target concepts)
2. Random Baseline: Randomly sampled datasets
3. Negative Influence: Datasets with high negative influence scores (least aligned)

Benchmark Results

Condition	Perplexity ↓	Train Loss ↓	Eval Loss ↓
Positive	1.72	0.8731	0.5442
Random	1.20	0.2664	0.1838
Negative	1.20	0.4567	0.1804

Lower is better for all metrics

Training Datasets

The model was trained on datasets selected through influence scoring:

• Lots-of-LoRAs/task1193_food_course_classification (Influence: 7.766)
• supergoose/flan_combined_task1193_food_course_classification (Influence: 18.294)
• supergoose/flan_combined_task527_parsinlu_food_overal_classification (Influence: -0.557)

Intended Use

This model demonstrates the effectiveness of influence-guided training for:

• Concept-specific language modeling
• Data-efficient training
• Dataset curation research

Limitations

• Trained on a limited compute budget for benchmarking purposes
• May not generalize well outside the target concepts: nutrition analysis, dietary assessment, meal description parsing, food classification, macronutrient estimation
• Performance depends on the quality of influence score estimation
