Abstract

We present RuleChef, a framework that uses large language models (LLMs) to generate executable rules for NLP tasks such as text classification, Named Entity Recognition (NER), or relation extraction. Rules are generated based on a task description and a set of labeled examples, then they are iteratively improved based both on additional examples and on human feedback overexisting rules. RuleChef can also be used to bootstrap rules using the observed input-output pairs from any existing model for a given task. LLMs are used only at learning time, synthesizing rules and iteratively patching them based on failures measured on a held-out split. The result of this process is a fast, deterministic, and inspectable rule system. Preliminary evaluation is performed on both classification and NER tasks. We release RuleChef as open-source software under an Apache 2.0

Low-signal caution for protocol decisions

Use this page for context, then validate protocol choices against stronger HFEPX references before implementation decisions.

  • The available metadata is too thin to trust this as a primary source.
  • The abstract does not clearly describe the evaluation setup.
  • The abstract does not clearly name benchmarks or metrics.
