SynthDetoxM: Modern LLMs are Few-Shot Parallel Detoxification Data Annotators

Daniil Moskovskiy, Nikita Sushko, Sergey Pletenev et al.

Existing approaches to multilingual text detoxification are hampered by the scarcity of parallel multilingual datasets. In this work, we introduce a pipeline for the generation of multilingual parallel detoxification data. We also introduce SynthDetoxM, a manually collected and synthetically generated multilingual parallel text detoxification dataset comprising 16,000 high-quality detoxification sentence pairs across German, French, Spanish and Russian. The data was sourced from different toxicity evaluation datasets and then rewritten with nine modern open-source LLMs in few-shot setting. Our experiments demonstrate that models trained on the produced synthetic datasets have superior performance to those trained on the human-annotated MultiParaDetox dataset even in data limited setting. Models trained on SynthDetoxM outperform all evaluated LLMs in few-shot setting. We release our dataset and code to help further research in multilingual text detoxification.

The Chronicles of RiDiC: Generating Datasets with Controlled Popularity Distribution for Long-form Factuality Evaluation

Pavel Braslavski, Dmitrii Iarosh, Nikita Sushko et al.

We present a configurable pipeline for generating multilingual sets of entities with specified characteristics, such as domain, geographical location and popularity, using data from Wikipedia and Wikidata. These datasets are intended for evaluating the factuality of LLMs' long-form generation, thereby complementing evaluation based on short-form QA datasets. We present the RiDiC dataset as an example of this approach. RiDiC contains 3,000 entities from three domains -- rivers, natural disasters, and car models -- spanning different popularity tiers. Each entity is accompanied by its geographical location, English and Chinese names (if available) and relevant English and Chinese Wikipedia content, which is used to evaluate LLMs' responses. Generations about RiDiC entities were obtained from three LLMs in English and Chinese. These were then evaluated using a third-party factuality checker, which showed that entities from our dataset caused even frontier models to hallucinate. To facilitate the evaluation of LLMs' long-form factuality in multiple languages, the code, data, and generation/evaluation scripts have been released.

LLavaCode: Compressed Code Representations for Retrieval-Augmented Code Generation

Daria Cherniuk, Nikita Sukhorukov, Nikita Sushko et al.

Retrieval-augmented generation has emerged as one of the most effective approaches for code completion, particularly when context from a surrounding repository is essential. However, incorporating context significantly extends sequence length, leading to slower inference - a critical limitation for interactive settings such as IDEs. In this work, we introduce LlavaCode, a framework that compresses code into compact, semantically rich representations interpretable by code LLM, enhancing generation quality while reducing the retrieved context to only a few compressed single-token vectors. Using a small projector module we can significantly increase the EM and ES metrics of coding model with negligible latency increase. Our experiments demonstrate that compressed context enables 20-38% reduction in Time-to-First-Token (TTFT) on line completion tasks compared to full-RAG pipelines.
