| Challenge: | Existing studies have attempted to scale up the available data volume by synthesizing long instruction-following samples, but a lack of a well-defined strategy for ensuring data quality may introduce low-quality samples and restrict the model’s performance. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework to identify influential samples enriched with long-range dependency relations that can be used to align large language models to handle instructions with extremely long contexts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework identifies samples with long-range dependency relations and shows that the model trained on these samples exhibits better instruction-following and long-context understanding capabilities. |
