AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Machine-generated text often lacks fluency, appearing robotic and unnatural due to high entropy, making it difficult to select the most suitable large language model (LLM) for generating natural language text.

Method used

An entropy-based technique is employed to compute an entropy score for output texts from multiple LLMs, selecting the LLM with low entropy for generating fluent natural language by training an entropy model on fluent training samples.

Benefits of technology

The entropy-based technique effectively identifies and selects the most fluent LLM output, ensuring natural and grammatically correct text generation for applications such as email responses and code documentation.

Abstract

An entropy-based technique is used to select a large language model capable of generating fluent natural language text. An entropy model, trained on fluent natural language samples, is used to determine the entropy of a large language model based on an output text generated by the large language model. The entropy of a machine-generated natural language text is used to quantify the amount of information that the large language model holds with respect to the tokens and context of an input text segment. The entropy score of a model is then used to select a large language model capable of generating fluent text or to select the most fluent machine-generated output text produced by a set of large language models.
