让大模型同时适配多种文化,提升跨文化对齐能力

Self-Pluralising Culture Alignment for Large Language Models

  • 自动生成跨文化问题,通过对比有无文化意识的输出识别文化相关样本
  • 在多个文化数据集上显著提升模型对多元文化的对齐效果
  • 适用于需兼顾多文化适配的AI应用,如国际对话系统

随着大型语言模型在多个国家日益普及,将其对齐以服务于多元文化价值观变得至关重要。然而,实现大模型在多元文化下的对齐仍是开放性难题。本文提出CultureSPA——一种自复数化文化对齐框架,使大模型能同时对齐多种文化。该框架首先生成涉及各类文化主题的问题,随后在有文化意识与无文化意识两种设置下获取模型输出。通过对比二者,可检测并收集文化相关实例。这些实例用于微调模型,以实现文化联合或文化特定的对齐方式。大量实验表明,CultureSPA显著提升了模型对多样化文化的对齐能力,且不损害通用性能。结合先进提示工程技术可进一步提升效果。不同数据质量与数量下的对比分析验证了方法的鲁棒性。我们还探究了CultureSPA的作用机制及其反映的不同文化间关系。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

As large language models (LLMs) become increasingly accessible in many countries, it is essential to align them to serve pluralistic human values across cultures. However, pluralistic culture alignment in LLMs remain an open problem. In this paper, we propose CultureSPA, a Self-Pluralising Culture Alignment framework that allows LLMs to simultaneously align to pluralistic cultures. The framework first generates questions on various culture topics, then yields LLM outputs in response to these generated questions under both culture-aware and culture-unaware settings. By comparing culture-aware/unaware outputs, we are able to detect and collect culture-related instances. These instances are employed to fine-tune LLMs to serve pluralistic cultures in either a culture-joint or culture-specific way. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CultureSPA significantly improves the alignment of LLMs to diverse cultures without compromising general abilities. And further improvements can be achieved if CultureSPA is combined with advanced prompt engineering techniques. Comparisons between culture-joint and culture-specific tuning strategies, along with variations in data quality and quantity, illustrate the robustness of our method. We also explore the mechanisms underlying CultureSPA and the relations between different cultures it reflects.
