Propagating Knowledge in LMs Through Distillation

This is the official repository of the paper:

Propagating Knowledge Updates to LMs Through Distillation <br/> Shankar Padmanabhan, Yasumasa Onoe, Michael J.Q. Zhang, Greg Durrett, Eunsol Choi <br/> NeurIPS 2023

Getting Started

This codebase uses Python 3.7.9.

$ conda create -n knowledge_distill -y python=3.7.9
$ conda activate knowledge_distill
(knowledge_distill) $ pip install -r requirements.txt

Running experiments

To run experiments, run a file from the root directory. There are two files, one for Entity Inferences and one for ECBD.

Example:

(knowledge_distill) $ python experiments/gpt_ecbd.py

To choose the editing method, change 'ki_method' in experiments/gpt_ecbd.py or experiments/gpt_entity_inferences.py accordingly.

Compatibility with ROME and MEND will be added soon.
