How to train a llm-integrated model to generate domain specific visual workflow? #73

Open xp1632 opened 1 month ago

I would like to train a large language model that can assist in generating visual programming workflows for non-computer science background scientists to process domain-specific image, such as material science. What kind of data do I need, what steps do I need? should i do natural language to text code training then convert the textual code into visual workflows?


Training a large language model (LLM) for generating visual programming workflows involves several steps and requires specific types of data. Here's a general outline of the process:

Data Requirements:

  1. Domain-Specific Data: Collect a large dataset of domain-specific images (e.g., material science images) along with annotations and metadata.
  2. Programming Workflows: Gather examples of visual programming workflows that are used to process these images. This can include flowcharts, block diagrams, and other visual representations.
  3. Natural Language Descriptions: Collect natural language descriptions of the tasks and workflows. This can include instructions, explanations, and documentation.
  4. Code Examples: Obtain examples of code that perform the image processing tasks. This can be in various programming languages commonly used in the domain.

Steps to Train the Model:

  1. Data Preprocessing:

    • Clean and preprocess the images, annotations, and metadata.
    • Tokenize and preprocess the natural language descriptions.
    • Convert visual programming workflows into a format that can be used for training (e.g., graph representations).
  2. Model Training:

    • Natural Language to Code: Train the model to convert natural language descriptions into code. This involves using a dataset of natural language instructions paired with corresponding code snippets.
    • Code to Visual Workflows: Train the model to convert textual code into visual programming workflows. This can involve using a dataset of code snippets paired with their visual representations.
  3. Integration:

    • Combine the two models (Natural Language to Code and Code to Visual Workflows) into a single pipeline. This allows the model to take natural language input and generate visual programming workflows as output.
  4. Fine-Tuning:

    • Fine-tune the model on domain-specific data to improve its performance and accuracy in generating workflows for material science image processing.

Example Workflow:

  1. Input: "Segment the grains in the material science image."
  2. Natural Language to Code: The model generates the corresponding code for image segmentation.
  3. Code to Visual Workflows: The model converts the generated code into a visual programming workflow.

Example Code Block:

# Example code for image segmentation
import cv2
import numpy as np

def segment_grains(image_path):
    image = cv2.imread(image_path, 0)
    _, thresh = cv2.threshold(image, 128, 255, cv2.THRESH_BINARY)
    contours, _ = cv2.findContours(thresh, cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
    return contours

# Visual representation of the workflow
# [Load Image] -> [Thresholding] -> [Find Contours] -> [Output]

By following these steps and using the appropriate data, you can train a large language model to assist in generating visual programming workflows for non-computer science background scientists.
