safe-genai-reward-lora

Bradley-Terry reward model trained with LoRA adapters on top of `bert-base-uncased`, for safety alignment of LLM responses to harmful and stereotype-triggering prompts.

Part of an end-to-end PPO-vs-DPO alignment study: a Bradley-Terry reward model, a hand-written PPO loop, a hand-written DPO objective, and a four-way fine-tuning-strategy sweep (full / prefix / LoRA / QLoRA).

Training setup


Base model	`bert-base-uncased`
Method	Bradley-Terry reward model
Fine-tuning strategy	LoRA adapters
Trainable parameters	2.68M / 112.16M (2.389%)
Preference data	Cultural Kaleidoscope preference data
Training pairs	4000
Wall-clock	387.97 s
Peak GPU	4830.4 MB

Results

Metric	Value
Preference accuracy (test)	0.9973
Bradley-Terry NLL (test)	0.0119
Mean reward margin	10.9692

Usage

python

from peft import PeftModel
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification

base = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased", num_labels=1)
rm = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base, "OmAhire369/safe-genai-reward-lora")
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("OmAhire369/safe-genai-reward-lora")

Limitations

bert-base-uncased is a small, dated base model with no instruction tuning; alignment here shifts response style and safety but does not make the model factual or production-ready. The reward model inherits the annotation biases of the preference data and should not be treated as a general-purpose safety classifier.
