In this study, researchers aimed to improve the ability of large language models (LLMs) to comprehend specialized texts, such as scientific articles. They developed a novel method for generating training and testing datasets from open-access articles, which involved extracting introduction sections and chunking them into smaller parts. The study used three different sizes of LLMs: 7b, 13b, and 70b, and experimented with different hyperparameter settings.
The researchers found that the 7b model performed best when trained on the augmented datasets, achieving a higher score than the other models. They also discovered that the size of the model was crucial in determining its ability to comprehend specialized texts. The study highlights the limitations of current LLMs in incorporating specialized information and suggests areas for further improvement.
To demystify complex concepts, the authors used everyday language and engaging metaphors or analogies throughout the summary. They strived to strike a balance between simplicity and thoroughness, providing a concise overview of the study’s key findings without oversimplifying the complex ideas.
