OpenOrca Logo

We are thrilled to announce the release of the OpenOrca dataset! This rich collection of augmented FLAN data aligns, as best as possible, with the distributions outlined in the Orca paper. It has been instrumental in generating high-performing model checkpoints and serves as a valuable resource for all NLP researchers and developers!

Official Models

Mistral-7B-OpenOrca

Our latest model, the first 7B to score better overall than all previous models below 30B. 98% of Llama2-70b-chat's performance, in a completely open 7B!

OpenOrca-Platypus2-13B

Our third model, the first 13B model to score higher than LLaMA1-65B on the HuggingFace Leaderboard! Released in partnership with Platypus.

LlongOrca 7B & 13B

Our first 7B release, trained on top of LLongMA2 to achieve 16,000 tokens context. #1 long context 7B model at release time, with >99% of the overall #1 model's performance.
LlongOrca-13B-16k, trained on top of LLongMA2. #1 long context 13B model at release time, with >97% of the overall #1 model's performance.

OpenOrcaxOpenChat-Preview2-13B

Our second model, highlighting that we've surpassed the performance reported in the Orca paper. Was #1 at release time, now surpassed by our own OpenOrca-Platypus2-13B. Released in partnership with OpenChat.

OpenOrca-Preview1-13B

OpenOrca-Preview1-13B This model was trained in less than a day, for <$200, with <10% of our data. At release, it beat the current state of the art models on BigBench-Hard and AGIEval. Achieves ~60% of the improvements reported in the Orca paper.

Dataset Summary

The OpenOrca dataset is a collection of augmented FLAN Collection data. Currently ~1M GPT-4 completions, and ~3.2M GPT-3.5 completions. It is tabularized in alignment with the distributions presented in the ORCA paper and currently represents a partial completion of the full intended dataset, with ongoing generation to expand its scope. The data is primarily used for training and evaluation in the field of natural language processing.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

This dataset supports a range of tasks including language modeling, text generation, and text augmentation. It has been instrumental in the generation of multiple high-performing model checkpoints which have exhibited exceptional performance in our unit testing. Further information on leaderboards will be updated as they become available.

Languages

The language of the data is primarily English.

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

A data instance in this dataset represents entries from the FLAN collection which have been augmented by submitting the listed question to either GPT-4 or GPT-3.5. The response is then entered into the response field.

Data Fields

The fields are:

'id', a unique numbered identifier which includes one of 'niv', 't0', 'cot', or 'flan' to represent which source FLAN Collection submix the 'question' is sourced from.
'system_prompt', representing the System Prompt presented to the GPT-3.5 or GPT-4 API for the datapoint
'question', representing a question entry as provided by the FLAN Collection
'response', a response to that question received from a query to either GPT-3.5 or GPT-4.

Data Splits

The data is unsplit.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

The dataset was created to provide a source of augmented text data for researchers and developers. The datapoints are intended primarily to provide an enhancement of the core FLAN Collection data which relies upon the detailed step by step reasoning capabilities of GPT-3.5 and GPT-4. This "reasoning trace" augmentation has demonstrated exceptional results, allowing a LLaMA-13B model trained with this data to rival or beat GPT-3.5 on broad sets of hard reasoning tasks which all models below 100B parameters had previously performed dramatically worse on.

Source Data

The data is generated using techniques in alignment with the distributions outlined in the Orca paper, except as noted below:

There is not enough CoT data in the FLAN Collection to generate 150K zero-shot entries, as the paper purports to use. We suspect this portion was either undocumented or misrepresented. We have used the ~75K points available.
We used the pre-generated FLAN Collection datasets hosted on HuggingFace under conceptofmind, e.g. conceptofmind/flan2021. These are referenced by the official FLAN Collection repo as the preferred data source. However, these are a subset of the full FLAN Collection data, and have less than the required entries for the flan2021 and t0 submixes, by ~1.25M and 200k respectively.

Combined, this gave us ~1.5M fewer datapoints than in the original Orca paper. Completing the set is an ongoing work.

Dataset Use

Use Cases

The dataset can be used for tasks related to language understanding, natural language processing, machine learning model training, and model performance evaluation.

Usage Caveats

Given that this is a work-in-progress dataset, it is recommended to regularly check for updates and improvements. Further, the data should be used in accordance with the guidelines and recommendations outlined in the Orca paper.

Getting Started

This dataset is organized such that it can be naively loaded via Hugging Face datasets library. We recommend using streaming due to the large size of the files. Regular updates and data generation progress can be monitored through the OpenOrca repository on Hugging Face.
