Bit_numeval at SemEval-2024 Task 7: Enhance Numerical Sensitivity and Reasoning Completeness for Quantitative Understanding

AbstractIn this paper, we describe the methods used for Quantitative Natural Language Inference (QNLI), and Quantitative Question Answering (QQA) in task1 of Semeval2024 NumEval. The challenge’s focus is to enhance the model’s quantitative understanding consequently improving its performance on certain tasks. We accomplish this task from two perspectives: (1) By integrating real-world numerical comparison data during the supervised fine-tuning (SFT) phase, we enhanced the model’s numerical sensitivity. (2) We develop an innovative reward model scoring mechanism, leveraging reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) techniques to improve the model’s reasoning completeness.
