This repository contains a LoRA adapter trained for Humanization by Iterative Paraphrasing (HIP), from the paper Base Models Look Human To AI Detectors.
The adapter is intended to be loaded on top of:
meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
Model Details
Adapter type: LoRA / PEFT adapter
Base model:meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct
Training objective: AI-to-human paraphrase reconstruction
Training data: paired AI-style and human-written passages from the HIP training data
Intended pipeline: iterative paraphrasing, where the adapter rewrites the previous round's output for a fixed number of rounds
Intended Use
This adapter is released to support research reproducibility for the HIP paper. It is intended for studying detector behavior, paraphrase-based rewriting, and robustness of AI-text detectors.
The adapter should not be used to evade deployed academic-integrity, authorship, or provenance systems in real-world settings.
For the full minimal HIP pipeline, see the code release linked from the paper.
Training Summary
The adapter was trained with supervised fine-tuning on paired examples (a_i, h_i), where a_i is an AI-style paraphrase of a human passage and h_i is the corresponding human-written target. Training uses a plain source-target format rather than a chat template.
