KokoMind

This is the repo for KokoMind, a dataset with multi-party social interactions to evaluate LLMs' social understanding abilities. The repo contains:

• The evaluation data of social interactions.
• The code for model evaluation.
• Check out the blog post of KokoMind to see some demos.

Dataset

KokoMind contains 150 complex multi-party social interactions (50 per source) with free-text questions and answers. To ensure diversity and scalability and avoid data contamination, all the social interactions, questions, and answers are generated by GPT-4 and verified by human experts later. These generations are based on three different sources:

• ? GPT-4-only: This subset is created solely by GPT-4 through prompting, without grounding on existing sources.
• ? Movie-based: To avoid data contamination, this portion of the data is grounded on diverse scenarios pulled from movies released after 2022. GPT-4 shapes these situations, maintaining the core essence while adding its own elements.
• ? ToMi-based: This segment contains data backboned by a simulated dataset, ToMi, which involves moving physical objects to different places, a classic test for theory of mind. These social interactions are again embellished and expanded by GPT-4.

For each social interaction, we ask various questions designed to probe the following aspects of social understanding.

• ? Theory of Mind: Questions evaluating understanding of others' mental states and perspectives.
• ? Social Norm: Questions aiming to discern societal values and norms within the situations.
• ? Emotion Recognition: Questions targeted at identifying and understanding emotional elements within the context.
• ?‍?‍? Social Relation: Queries focusing on interpersonal dynamics and relationships.
• ? Counterfactual Questions: Hypothetical queries designed to explore alternative outcomes or possibilities.
• Social Advice: Questions eliciting advice or action recommendations relevant to the given situation.

question_nonverbal_yes_v0.1.json contains 770 samples in total. This JSON Lines file is a list of dictionaries, with each dictionary contains the following fields:

• question_id: int, the unique ID of the question.
• text: str, social interaction context and question.
• answer: str, GPT-4 answer that has been further verified by human.
• source: str, one of the three data sources: gpt-4, movie, tomi.
• category: str, one of six question categories: ToM, Social Norm, Emotion Recognition, Social Relation, Counterfactual, Social Advice.

question_nonverbal_no_v0.1.json contains the same social interactions and questions but but with the non-verbal cues in the parenthesis (e.g., nervously sipping coffee, etc) removed from the context.

Evaluation

Pre-requisite

pip install -r requirements.txt
export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your_api_key>
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<your_api_key>

Generate model answers

# Generate local model anwers
# Use vicuna-7b as an example
python eval/get_model_answer.py --model-path ${PATH_TO_LOCAL_HF_MODEL} --model-id vicuna-7b --question-file data/question_nonverbal_yes_v0.1.jsonl --answer-file data/answer/answer_vicuna-7b.jsonl --num-gpus 8

# GPT-3 answer (reference model by alpaca-eval)
python eval/qa_baseline_gpt3.py -q data/question_nonverbal_yes_v0.1.jsonl -o data/answer/answer_gpt3.jsonl

# GPT-3.5 answer
python eval/qa_baseline_gpt35.py -q data/question_nonverbal_yes_v0.1.jsonl -o data/answer/answer_gpt35.jsonl

# GPT-4.0 answer
python eval/qa_baseline_gpt4.py -q data/question_nonverbal_yes_v0.1.jsonl -o data/answer/answer_gpt4.jsonl

# Claude answer
python eval/qa_baseline_claude.py -q data/question_nonverbal_yes_v0.1.jsonl -o data/answer/answer_claude.jsonl

Run evaluation

Our evaluation is based on Alpaca-Eval.

# Convert to alpaca_eval input format
python eval/generate_alpaca_eval.py -q data/question_nonverbal_yes_v0.1.jsonl -a data/answer/answer_gpt3.jsonl -o data/alpaca_eval/answer_gpt3.json

alpaca_eval make_leaderboard --leaderboard_path data/alpaca_results/leaderboard.csv --all_model_outputs "./data/alpaca_eval/answer_*" --reference_outputs data/alpaca_eval/answer_gpt3.json --is_overwrite_leaderboard True
