APIGen: Automated Pipeline for Generating Verifiable and Diverse Function-Calling Datasets

Function-calling agent models, a significant advancement within large language models (LLMs), interpret natural language instructions to execute API calls, crucial for real-time interactions with digital services. However, existing datasets often lack comprehensive verification and diversity, leading to inaccuracies and inefficiencies.

Challenges and Solutions

Current methods for training function-calling agents rely on static datasets that do not undergo thorough verification, limiting their adaptability and performance. APIGen, an automated pipeline, addresses these limitations by generating diverse and verifiable function-calling datasets through a multi-stage verification process. This approach significantly enhances the training and performance of function-calling models.

APIGen’s Data Generation Process

APIGen starts by sampling APIs and example query-answer pairs, formatting them into a standardized JSON format. The pipeline then employs a multi-stage verification process involving format checking, actual function executions, and semantic verification, resulting in a comprehensive dataset of 60,000 high-quality entries, covering 3,673 APIs across 21 categories.

Performance and Results

APIGen’s datasets significantly improved model performance, achieving state-of-the-art results on the Berkeley Function-Calling Benchmark. Models trained using these datasets outperformed multiple GPT-4 models, demonstrating considerable enhancements in accuracy and efficiency.

Conclusion

APIGen presents a novel framework for generating high-quality and diverse function-calling datasets, significantly enhancing model performance. This approach opens new possibilities for developing efficient and powerful language models, highlighting the importance of high-quality data in AI research.
