Multilingual-Human-Value-Concepts

Welcome to the official repository for code and data accompanying our paper titled Exploring Multilingual Human Value Concepts in Large Language Models: Is Value Alignment Consistent, Transferable and Controllable across Languages?.

The repe code is based on the representation-engineering project.

The lang_sim.pt file is computed by running lang2vec_try.ipynb, which relies on lang2vec.

Preparing

Our primary experimental data, the Multilingual human VALUE dataset(MVALUE) dataset, is provided in Google Drive.

Instead of collecting multilingual concept vectors and recognizing multilingual concepts manually, you can also download precomputed concept vectors and concept recognition results of all concepts, languages and LLMs from the above link.

To utilize these resources, you should simply download the data and the res folders in the above link and place them into the main directory of the repository.

[Optional] Collecting Multilingual Concept Vectors

Collect vectors for llama2-chat-7B as:

python collect_vector.py --lang en fr zh es pt vi ca id ja ko fi hu ta te sw ny --concept morality deontology utilitarianism fairness truthfulness toxicity harmfulness --model-name llama2-chat --model-size 7B

please replace model-name and model-size for other LLMs.

Recognizing Multilingual Concepts

[Optional] Perform concept recognition for llama2-chat-7B as:

python recognize_concept.py --lang en fr zh es pt vi ca id ja ko fi hu ta te sw ny --concept morality deontology utilitarianism fairness truthfulness toxicity harmfulness --model-name llama2-chat --model-size 7B

please replace model-name and model-size for other LLMs.

After obtaining all recognition results, you can generate the multilingual concept recognition accuracy (Figure 2 and Table 6 in the paper) as:

python recognize_concept.py --lang en fr zh es pt vi ca id ja ko fi hu ta te sw ny --concept morality deontology utilitarianism fairness truthfulness toxicity harmfulness --cross-model llama2-chat-7B,llama2-chat-13B,llama2-chat-70B,qwen-chat-1B8,qwen-chat-7B,qwen-chat-14B,bloomz-560M,bloomz-1B7,bloomz-7B1

Cross-lingual Consistency and Transferability Analysis

Perform consistency analysis, outputting the results in Figure 4&7 and Table 1:

python consistency_analysis.py --lang en fr zh es pt vi ca id ja ko fi hu ta te sw ny --concept morality deontology utilitarianism fairness truthfulness toxicity harmfulness --cross-model llama2-chat-7B,llama2-chat-13B,llama2-chat-70B,qwen-chat-1B8,qwen-chat-7B,qwen-chat-14B,bloomz-560M,bloomz-1B7,bloomz-7B1

Perform transferablity analysis, outputting Figure 5&8 in the paper:

python transferability_analysis.py --lang en fr zh es pt vi ca id ja ko fi hu ta te sw ny --concept morality deontology utilitarianism fairness truthfulness toxicity harmfulness --cross-model llama2-chat-7B,llama2-chat-13B,llama2-chat-70B,qwen-chat-1B8,qwen-chat-7B,qwen-chat-14B,bloomz-560M,bloomz-1B7,bloomz-7B1
