It is a replacement for GGML, which is no longer supported by llama.cpp. Here is an incomplete list of clients and libraries that are known to support GGUF: * [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp). This is the source project for GGUF, providing both a Command Line Interface (CLI) and a server option. * [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui), Known as the most widely used web UI, this project boasts numerous features and powerful extensions, and supports GPU acceleration. * [Ollama](https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama) Ollama is a lightweight and extensible framework designed for building and running language models locally. It features a simple API for creating, managing, and executing models, along with a library of pre-built models for use in various applications​ * [KoboldCpp](https://github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp), A comprehensive web UI offering GPU acceleration across all platforms and architectures, particularly renowned for storytelling. * [GPT4All](https://gpt4all.io), This is a free and open source GUI that runs locally, supporting Windows, Linux, and macOS with full GPU acceleration. * [LM Studio](https://lmstudio.ai/) An intuitive and powerful local GUI for Windows and macOS (Silicon), featuring GPU acceleration. * [LoLLMS Web UI](https://github.com/ParisNeo/lollms-webui). A notable web UI with a variety of unique features, including a comprehensive model library for easy model selection. * [Faraday.dev](https://faraday.dev/), An attractive, user-friendly character-based chat GUI for Windows and macOS (both Silicon and Intel), also offering GPU acceleration. * [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python), A Python library equipped with GPU acceleration, LangChain support, and an OpenAI-compatible API server. * [candle](https://github.com/huggingface/candle), A Rust-based ML framework focusing on performance, including GPU support, and designed for ease of use. * [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/ctransformers), A Python library featuring GPU acceleration, LangChain support, and an OpenAI-compatible AI server. * [localGPT](https://github.com/PromtEngineer/localGPT) An open-source initiative enabling private conversations with documents. ## Explanation of quantisation methods
Click to see details The new methods available are: * GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw) * GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw. * GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw. * GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw * GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw.
## How to download GGUF files **Note for manual downloaders:** You almost never want to clone the entire repo! Multiple different quantisation formats are provided, and most users only want to pick and download a single folder. The following clients/libraries will automatically download models for you, providing a list of available models to choose from: * LM Studio * LoLLMS Web UI * Faraday.dev ### In `text-generation-webui` Under Download Model, you can enter the model repo: LiteLLMs/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf. Then click Download. ### On the command line, including multiple files at once I recommend using the `huggingface-hub` Python library: ```shell pip3 install huggingface-hub ``` Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this: ```shell huggingface-cli download LiteLLMs/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B-GGUF Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False ```
More advanced huggingface-cli download usage (click to read) You can also download multiple files at once with a pattern: ```shell huggingface-cli download LiteLLMs/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B-GGUF --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False --include='*Q4_K*gguf' ``` For more documentation on downloading with `huggingface-cli`, please see: [HF -> Hub Python Library -> Download files -> Download from the CLI](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/guides/download#download-from-the-cli). To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install `hf_transfer`: ```shell pip3 install huggingface_hub[hf_transfer] ``` And set environment variable `HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER` to `1`: ```shell HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download LiteLLMs/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B-GGUF Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False ``` Windows Command Line users: You can set the environment variable by running `set HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1` before the download command.
## Example `llama.cpp` command Make sure you are using `llama.cpp` from commit [d0cee0d](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/commit/d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221) or later. ```shell ./main -ngl 35 -m Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf --color -c 8192 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "" ``` Change `-ngl 32` to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration. Change `-c 8192` to the desired sequence length. For extended sequence models - eg 8K, 16K, 32K - the necessary RoPE scaling parameters are read from the GGUF file and set by llama.cpp automatically. Note that longer sequence lengths require much more resources, so you may need to reduce this value. If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the `-p ` argument with `-i -ins` For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to [the llama.cpp documentation](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/examples/main/README.md) ## How to run in `text-generation-webui` Further instructions can be found in the text-generation-webui documentation, here: [text-generation-webui/docs/04 ‐ Model Tab.md](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/04%20%E2%80%90%20Model%20Tab.md#llamacpp). ## How to run from Python code You can use GGUF models from Python using the [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python) or [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/ctransformers) libraries. Note that at the time of writing (Nov 27th 2023), ctransformers has not been updated for some time and is not compatible with some recent models. Therefore I recommend you use llama-cpp-python. ### How to load this model in Python code, using llama-cpp-python For full documentation, please see: [llama-cpp-python docs](https://abetlen.github.io/llama-cpp-python/). #### First install the package Run one of the following commands, according to your system: ```shell # Base ctransformers with no GPU acceleration pip install llama-cpp-python # With NVidia CUDA acceleration CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_CUBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with OpenBLAS acceleration CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_BLAS=ON -DLLAMA_BLAS_VENDOR=OpenBLAS" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with CLBLast acceleration CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_CLBLAST=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with AMD ROCm GPU acceleration (Linux only) CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_HIPBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with Metal GPU acceleration for macOS systems only CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_METAL=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # In windows, to set the variables CMAKE_ARGS in PowerShell, follow this format; eg for NVidia CUDA: $env:CMAKE_ARGS = "-DLLAMA_OPENBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python ``` #### Simple llama-cpp-python example code ```python from llama_cpp import Llama # Set gpu_layers to the number of layers to offload to GPU.

Llama3-ChatQA-1.5 is developed using an improved training recipe from [ChatQA paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.10225v3), and it is built on top of [Llama-3 base model](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B). Specifically, we incorporate more conversational QA data to enhance its tabular and arithmetic calculation capability. Llama3-ChatQA-1.5 has two variants: Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B and Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-70B. Both models were originally trained using [Megatron-LM](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Megatron-LM), we converted the checkpoints to Hugging Face format. **For more information about ChatQA, check the [website](https://chatqa-project.github.io/)!** ## Other Resources [Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-70B](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-70B)   [Evaluation Data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nvidia/ChatRAG-Bench)   [Training Data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nvidia/ChatQA-Training-Data)   [Retriever](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/dragon-multiturn-query-encoder)   [Website](https://chatqa-project.github.io/)   [Paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.10225v3) ## Benchmark Results Results in [ChatRAG Bench](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nvidia/ChatRAG-Bench) are as follows: | | ChatQA-1.0-7B | Command-R-Plus | Llama3-instruct-70b | GPT-4-0613 | GPT-4-Turbo | ChatQA-1.0-70B | ChatQA-1.5-8B | ChatQA-1.5-70B | | --: | :: | :: | :: | :---: | | Doc2Dial | 37.88 | 33.51 | 37.88 | 34.16 | 35.35 | 38.90 | 39.33 | 41.26 | | QuAC | 29.69 | 34.16 | 36.96 | 40.29 | 40.10 | 41.82 | 39.73 | 38.82 | | QReCC | 46.97 | 49.77 | 51.34 | 52.01 | 51.46 | 48.05 | 49.03 | 51.40 | | CoQA | 76.61 | 69.71 | 76.98 | 77.42 | 77.73 | 78.57 | 76.46 | 78.44 | | DoQA | 41.57 | 40.67 | 41.24 | 43.39 | 41.60 | 51.94 | 49.60 | 50.67 | | ConvFinQA | 51.61 | 71.21 | 76.6 | 81.28 | 84.16 | 73.69 | 78.46 | 81.88 | | SQA | 61.87 | 74.07 | 69.61 | 79.21 | 79.98 | 69.14 | 73.28 | 83.82 | | TopioCQA | 45.45 | 53.77 | 49.72 | 45.09 | 48.32 | 50.98 | 49.96 | 55.63 | | HybriDial* | 54.51 | 46.7 | 48.59 | 49.81 | 47.86 | 56.44 | 65.76 | 68.27 | | INSCIT | 30.96 | 35.76 | 36.23 | 36.34 | 33.75 | 31.90 | 30.10 | 32.31 | | Average (all) | 47.71 | 50.93 | 52.52 | 53.90 | 54.03 | 54.14 | 55.17 | 58.25 | | Average (exclude HybriDial) | 46.96 | 51.40 | 52.95 | 54.35 | 54.72 | 53.89 | 53.99 | 57.14 | Note that ChatQA-1.5 is built based on Llama-3 base model, and ChatQA-1.0 is built based on Llama-2 base model. ChatQA-1.5 models use HybriDial training dataset. To ensure fair comparison, we also compare average scores excluding HybriDial.

**The content of the system's turn (i.e., {System}) for both scenarios is as follows:**
This is a chat between a user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions based on the context. The assistant should also indicate when the answer cannot be found in the context.
**Note that our ChatQA-1.5 models are optimized for the capability with context, e.g., over documents or retrieved context.** ## How to use ### take the whole document as context This can be applied to the scenario where the whole document can be fitted into the model, so that there is no need to run retrieval over the document. ```python from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM import torch model_id = "nvidia/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B" tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id) model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, torch_dtype=torch.float16, device_map="auto") messages = [ {"role": "user", "content": "what is the percentage change of the net income from Q4 FY23 to Q4 FY24?"} ] document = """NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today reported revenue for the fourth quarter ended January 28, 2024, of $22.1 billion, up 22% from the previous quarter and up 265% from a year ago.\nFor the quarter, GAAP earnings per diluted share was $4.93, up 33% from the previous quarter and up 765% from a year ago.

The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions based on the context. The assistant should also indicate when the answer cannot be found in the context." instruction = "Please give a full and complete answer for the question." for item in messages: if item['role'] == "user": ## only apply this instruction for the first user turn item['content'] = instruction + " " + item['content'] break conversation = '\n\n'.join(["User: " + item["content"] if item["role"] == "user" else "Assistant: " + item["content"] for item in messages]) + "\n\nAssistant:" formatted_input = system + "\n\n" + context + "\n\n" + conversation return formatted_input formatted_input = get_formatted_input(messages, document) tokenized_prompt = tokenizer(tokenizer.bos_token + formatted_input, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device) terminators = [ tokenizer.eos_token_id, tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|eot_id|>") ] outputs = model.generate(input_ids=tokenized_prompt.input_ids, attention_mask=tokenized_prompt.attention_mask, max_new_tokens=128, eos_token_id=terminators) response = outputs[0][tokenized_prompt.input_ids.shape[-1]:] print(tokenizer.decode(response, skip_special_tokens=True)) ``` ### run retrieval to get top-n chunks as context This can be applied to the scenario when the document is very long, so that it is necessary to run retrieval. Here, we use our [Dragon-multiturn](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/dragon-multiturn-query-encoder) retriever which can handle conversatinoal query. In addition, we provide a few [documents](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B/tree/main/docs) for users to play with. ```python from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoModel import torch import json ## load ChatQA-1.5 tokenizer and model model_id = "nvidia/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-8B" tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id) model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, torch_dtype=torch.float16, device_map="auto") ## load retriever tokenizer and model retriever_tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('nvidia/dragon-multiturn-query-encoder') query_encoder = AutoModel.from_pretrained('nvidia/dragon-multiturn-query-encoder') context_encoder = AutoModel.from_pretrained('nvidia/dragon-multiturn-context-encoder') ## prepare documents, we take landrover car manual document that we provide as an example chunk_list = json.load(open("docs.json"))['landrover'] messages = [ {"role": "user", "content": "how to connect the bluetooth in the car?"} ] ### running retrieval ## convert query into a format as follows: ## user: {user}\nagent: {agent}\nuser: {user} formatted_query_for_retriever = '\n'.join([turn['role'] + ": " + turn['content'] for turn in messages]).strip() query_input = retriever_tokenizer(formatted_query_for_retriever, return_tensors='pt') ctx_input = retriever_tokenizer(chunk_list, padding=True, truncation=True, max_length=512, return_tensors='pt') query_emb = query_encoder(**query_input).last_hidden_state[:, 0, :] ctx_emb = context_encoder(**ctx_input).last_hidden_state[:, 0, :] ## Compute similarity scores using dot product and rank the similarity similarities = query_emb.matmul(ctx_emb.transpose(0, 1)) # (1, num_ctx) ranked_results = torch.argsort(similarities, dim=-1, descending=True) # (1, num_ctx) ## get top-n chunks (n=5) retrieved_chunks = [chunk_list[idx] for idx in ranked_results.tolist()[0][:5]] context = "\n\n".join(retrieved_chunks) ### running text generation formatted_input = get_formatted_input(messages, context) tokenized_prompt = tokenizer(tokenizer.bos_token + formatted_input, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device) terminators = [ tokenizer.eos_token_id, tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|eot_id|>") ] outputs = model.generate(input_ids=tokenized_prompt.input_ids, attention_mask=tokenized_prompt.attention_mask, max_new_tokens=128, eos_token_id=terminators) response = outputs[0][tokenized_prompt.input_ids.shape[-1]:] print(tokenizer.decode(response, skip_special_tokens=True)) ``` ## Correspondence to Zihan Liu (zihanl@nvidia.com), Wei Ping (wping@nvidia.com) ## Citation
