lindafei001/tofu-forget10-relearned-IdkDPO
The lindafei001/tofu-forget10-relearned-IdkDPO is a 1 billion parameter language model, derived from open-unlearning/unlearn_tofu_Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct, specifically fine-tuned to re-learn forgotten information. This model demonstrates that re-learning a forgotten fact is significantly more efficient than teaching it to a model for the first time. It is a research artifact designed for evaluating unlearning mechanisms in LLMs, particularly within the context of the TOFU dataset.

Model Overview
This model, lindafei001/tofu-forget10-relearned-IdkDPO, is a 1 billion parameter research artifact derived from an unlearned checkpoint of open-unlearning/unlearn_tofu_Llama-3.2-1B-Instruct. Its primary purpose is to investigate the efficiency of re-learning forgotten information in large language models.
Key Characteristics
- Re-learning Efficiency: The model was fine-tuned for 300 optimizer steps on a 'forget set' (TOFU
forget10_perturbeddataset) that it had previously been instructed to unlearn. It demonstrates that re-learning forgotten facts is substantially faster and more efficient than learning them from scratch. - Performance Metrics: After 300 steps, the model achieved a verbatim Negative Log Likelihood (NLL) of 0.0178 on the forget set (down from 0.693) and improved gold fact ranking accuracy from 0.630 to 0.690.
- Training Details: Training involved
adamw8bitoptimizer with a learning rate of 1e-06, a batch size of 4 with 1 accumulation, andfp32precision.
Intended Use
This model is specifically designed for:
- Research on Unlearning Evaluation: It is part of the "Illusion of LLM Unlearning" collection, providing a controlled environment to study how models re-acquire information they were trained to forget.
- Synthetic Data Research: The model was fine-tuned on a synthetic corpus of fictitious authors, making it suitable for research where factual claims are intentionally fictional.
Note: This is a research artifact and is not intended for deployment in real-world applications due to its synthetic training data and specific research focus.
