Installation

After you have cloned the repository, let's create an ad-hoc environment for this project

python3.10 -m venv .venv/llm
source .venv/llm/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Now you need to update the constants.py file with the URL of your LLama3 and Mixtral servers. Please refer to utils.py to see how this information is used in classes DefaultNLELlama3_70bChatOpenAI and DefaultNLEMixtral_8x7bChatOpenAI.

Run the Notebooks

You should now be able to run our notebooks to reproduce our results. There is one notebook for each dataset tested.
