New corpus StageWell enhances AI support dialogues

Researchers have introduced StageWell, a new Chinese corpus designed for positive psychology support dialogues. This corpus, developed using the HQS protocol, organizes support into a six-stage process and includes 12,445 supervised fine-tuning instances and 1,849 Direct Preference Optimization pairs. The HQS protocol guides the creation of DPO pairs by focusing on localized repairs to flawed model outputs, leading to improved process control, response quality, and safety in large language models.
