The Branch-Solve-Merge (BSM) program enhances Large Language Models (LLMs) in complex natural language tasks. It includes branching, solving, and merging modules to plan, crack, and combine sub-tasks. Applied to LLMs like Vicuna, LLaMA-2-chat, and GPT-4, BSM boosts human-LLM agreement, reduces biases, increases story coherence, and improves constraint satisfaction. BSM is a promising solution for enhancing LLM performance in intricate language tasks.
Introducing Branch-Solve-Merge: Enhancing Large Language Models’ Performance in Complex Language Tasks
Researchers from Meta and UNC-Chapel Hill have developed a revolutionary program called Branch-Solve-Merge (BSM) that enhances the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) in complex language tasks. BSM consists of branching, solving, and merging modules that plan, crack, and combine sub-tasks. By applying BSM to tasks like LLM response evaluation and constrained text generation, it improves human-LLM agreement, reduces biases, and enables LLMs to excel in various domains.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Boosts human-LLM agreement and reduces biases
- Enables LLMs to match or surpass top models like GPT-4
- Increases story coherence and satisfaction in constraint story generation
- Divides tasks into steps and parameterizes each with distinct prompts
- Addresses the need for holistic evaluation in complex text generation tasks
- Improves correctness, consistency, and constraint satisfaction
- Enhances LLM-human agreement by up to 26% and constraint satisfaction by 12%
- Outperforms other approaches in reducing biases
- Effective across different LLMs and domains
Practical Solutions for Middle Managers:
- Enhance LLM performance in complex language tasks
