Fast-DetectGPT

This code is for ICLR 2024 paper "Fast-DetectGPT: Efficient Zero-Shot Detection of Machine-Generated Text via Conditional Probability Curvature", where we borrow or extend some code from DetectGPT.

Brief Intro

<table class="tg" style="padding-left: 30px;"> <tr> <th class="tg-0pky">Method</th> <th class="tg-0pky">5-Model Generations ↑</th> <th class="tg-0pky">ChatGPT/GPT-4 Generations ↑</th> <th class="tg-0pky">Speedup ↑</th> </tr> <tr> <td class="tg-0pky">DetectGPT</td> <td class="tg-0pky">0.9554</td> <td class="tg-0pky">0.7225</td> <td class="tg-0pky">1x</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="tg-0pky">Fast-DetectGPT</td> <td class="tg-0pky">0.9887 (relative↑ <b>74.7%</b>)</td> <td class="tg-0pky">0.9338 (relative↑ <b>76.1%</b>)</td> <td class="tg-0pky"><b>340x</b></td> </tr> </table> The table shows detection accuracy (measured in AUROC) and computational speedup for machine-generated text detection. The <b>white-box setting</b> (directly using the source model) is used for detecting generations produced by five source models (5-model), whereas the <b>black-box setting</b> (utilizing surrogate models) targets ChatGPT and GPT-4 generations. AUROC results are averaged across various datasets and source models. Speedup assessments were conducted on a Tesla A100 GPU.

Environment

(Notes: our experiments are run on 1 GPU of Tesla A100 with 80G memory.)

Local Demo

Please run following command locally for an interactive demo:

python scripts/local_infer.py

where the default reference and sampling models are both gpt-neo-2.7B.

We could use gpt-j-6B as the reference model to obtain more accurate detections:

python scripts/local_infer.py  --reference_model_name gpt-j-6B

An example (using gpt-j-6B as the reference model) looks like

Disguised as police, they broke through a fence on Monday evening and broke into the cargo of a Swiss-bound plane to take the valuable items. The audacious heist occurred at an airport in a small European country, leaving authorities baffled and airline officials in shock.

Fast-DetectGPT criterion is 1.9299, suggesting that the text has a probability of 87% to be machine-generated.

Workspace

Following folders are created for our experiments:

(Notes: we share <b>generations from GPT-3, ChatGPT, and GPT-4</b> in exp_gpt3to4/data for convenient reproduction.)
