用17亿参数小模型微调，实现更准更可靠的自动标注。

As Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities advance, the demand for high-quality annotation of exponentially increasing text corpora has outpaced human capacity, leading to the widespread adoption of LLMs in automatic evaluation and annotation. However, proprietary LLMs often exhibit systematic biases that diverge from human expert consensus, lacks reproducibility, and raises data privacy concerns. Our work examines the viability of finetuning a quantized Small Language Model of 1.7B parameter size on limited human-annotated data to serve as a highly aligned, deterministic evaluator and annotator. By implementing a custom, multi-dimensional rubric framework and simple augmentation and regularization techniques, the proposed approach achieves higher inter-annotator agreement (0.23 points increase in Krippendorff's $α$) than the best performing state-of-the-art proprietary LLM. We also demonstrate the generalizability of the proposed training pipeline on a separate emotion classification task. The results show that task-specific alignment and efficient 4-bit quantized fine-tuning provide superior open-source alternative to using proprietary models for evaluation and annotation.
