ADALA: Automated Data Labeling Agent

Project description

ADALA logo

Adala is an Autonomous DAta (Labeling) Agent framework.

Adala offers a robust framework for implementing agents specialized in data processing, with a particular emphasis on diverse data labeling tasks. These agents are autonomous, meaning they can independently acquire one or more skills through iterative learning. This learning process is influenced by their operating environment, observations, and reflections. Users define the environment by providing a ground truth dataset. Every agent learns and applies its skills in what we refer to as a "runtime", synonymous with LLM.

Why Choose Adala?

  • Reliable Agents: Built upon a foundation of ground truth data, our agents ensure consistent and trustworthy results, making Adala a reliable choice for data processing needs.

  • Controllable Output: For every skill, you can configure the desired output, setting specific constraints with varying degrees of flexibility. Whether you want strict adherence to particular guidelines or more adaptive outputs based on the agent's learning, Adala allows you to tailor results to your exact needs.

  • Specialized in Data Processing: While our agents excel in diverse data labeling tasks, they can be tailored to a wide range of data processing needs.

  • Autonomous Learning: Adala agents aren't just automated; they're intelligent. They iteratively and independently develop skills based on environment, observations, and reflections.

  • Flexible and Extensible Runtime: Adala's runtime environment is adaptable. A single skill can be deployed across multiple runtimes, facilitating dynamic scenarios like the student/teacher architecture. Moreover, the openness of our framework invites the community to extend and tailor runtimes, ensuring continuous evolution and adaptability to diverse needs.

  • Extend Skills: Quickly tailor and develop agents to address the specific challenges and nuances of your domain, without facing a steep learning curve.

Installation

Install ADALA:

pip install adala

If you're planning to use human-in-the-loop labeling, or need a labeling tool to produce ground truth datasets, we suggest installing Label Studio. Adala is made to support Label Studio format right out of the box.

pip install label-studio

Prerequisites

Set OPENAI_API_KEY (see instructions here)

export OPENAI_API_KEY='your-openai-api-key'

Quickstart

In this example we will use ADALA as a standalone library directly inside our python notebook. You can open it in Collab right here.

import pandas as pd

from adala.agents import Agent
from adala.datasets import DataFrameDataset
from adala.environments import BasicEnvironment
from adala.skills import ClassificationSkill
from rich import print

print("=> Initialize datasets ...")

# Train dataset
train_df = pd.DataFrame([
    ["It was the negative first impressions, and then it started working.", "Positive"],
    ["Not loud enough and doesn't turn on like it should.", "Negative"],
    ["I don't know what to say.", "Neutral"],
    ["Manager was rude, but the most important that mic shows very flat frequency response.", "Positive"],
    ["The phone doesn't seem to accept anything except CBR mp3s.", "Negative"],
    ["I tried it before, I bought this device for my son.", "Neutral"],
], columns=["text", "ground_truth"])

# Test dataset
test_df = pd.DataFrame([
    "All three broke within two months of use.",
    "The device worked for a long time, can't say anything bad.",
    "Just a random line of text.",
    "Will order from them again!",
], columns=["text"])

train_dataset = DataFrameDataset(df=train_df)
test_dataset = DataFrameDataset(df=test_df)

print("=> Initialize and train ADALA agent ...")
agent = Agent(
    # connect to a dataset
    environment=BasicEnvironment(
        ground_truth_dataset=train_dataset,
        ground_truth_column="ground_truth"
    ),
    # define a skill
    skills=ClassificationSkill(
        name='sentiment_classification',
        instructions="Label text as subjective or objective.",
        labels=["Positive", "Negative", "Neutral"],
        input_data_field='text'
    ),
    
    # uncomment this if you want more quality and you have access to OPENAI GPT-4 model
    # default_teacher_runtime='openai-gpt4',
)
print(agent)

agent.learn(learning_iterations=3, accuracy_threshold=0.95)
print(agent.skills)

print('\n=> Run tests ...')
run = agent.apply_skills(test_dataset)
print('\n => Test results:')
print(run)
