Poro 34B - AWQ

Model creator: LumiOpen
Original model: Poro 34B

Description

This repo contains AWQ model files for LumiOpen's Poro 34B.

These files were quantised using hardware kindly provided by Massed Compute.

About AWQ

AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference with equivalent or better quality compared to the most commonly used GPTQ settings.

AWQ models are currently supported on Linux and Windows, with NVidia GPUs only. macOS users: please use GGUF models instead.

It is supported by:

Text Generation Webui - using Loader: AutoAWQ
vLLM - version 0.2.2 or later for support for all model types.
Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)
Transformers version 4.35.0 and later, from any code or client that supports Transformers
AutoAWQ - for use from Python code

Repositories available

Prompt template: None

Once you're ready, click the Text Generation tab and enter a prompt to get started!

Multi-user inference server: vLLM

Documentation on installing and using vLLM can be found here.

Please ensure you are using vLLM version 0.2 or later.
When using vLLM as a server, pass the --quantization awq parameter.

For example:

python3 -m vllm.entrypoints.api_server --model TheBloke/Poro-34B-AWQ --quantization awq --dtype auto

When using vLLM from Python code, again set quantization=awq.

For example:

from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

prompts = [
    "Tell me about AI",
    "Write a story about llamas",
    "What is 291 - 150?",
    "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?",
]
prompt_template=f'''{prompt}
'''

prompts = [prompt_template.format(prompt=prompt) for prompt in prompts]

sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)

llm = LLM(model="TheBloke/Poro-34B-AWQ", quantization="awq", dtype="auto")

outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

# Print the outputs.
for output in outputs:
    prompt = output.prompt
    generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
    print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")

Multi-user inference server: Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)

Use TGI version 1.1.0 or later. The official Docker container is: ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.1.0

Example Docker parameters:

--model-id TheBloke/Poro-34B-AWQ --port 3000 --quantize awq --max-input-length 3696 --max-total-tokens 4096 --max-batch-prefill-tokens 4096

Example Python code for interfacing with TGI (requires huggingface-hub 0.17.0 or later):

pip3 install huggingface-hub

from huggingface_hub import InferenceClient

endpoint_url = "https://your-endpoint-url-here"

prompt = "Tell me about AI"
prompt_template=f'''{prompt}
'''

client = InferenceClient(endpoint_url)
response = client.text_generation(prompt,
                                  max_new_tokens=128,
                                  do_sample=True,
                                  temperature=0.7,
                                  top_p=0.95,
                                  top_k=40,
                                  repetition_penalty=1.1)

print(f"Model output: ", response)

Inference from Python code using Transformers

Install the necessary packages

Requires: Transformers 4.35.0 or later.
Requires: AutoAWQ 0.1.6 or later.

pip3 install --upgrade "autoawq>=0.1.6" "transformers>=4.35.0"

Note that if you are using PyTorch 2.0.1, the above AutoAWQ command will automatically upgrade you to PyTorch 2.1.0.

If you are using CUDA 11.8 and wish to continue using PyTorch 2.0.1, instead run this command:

pip3 install https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ/releases/download/v0.1.6/autoawq-0.1.6+cu118-cp310-cp310-linux_x86_64.whl

If you have problems installing AutoAWQ using the pre-built wheels, install it from source instead:

pip3 uninstall -y autoawq
git clone https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ
cd AutoAWQ
pip3 install .

Transformers example code (requires Transformers 4.35.0 and later)

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, TextStreamer

model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/Poro-34B-AWQ"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name_or_path,
    low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
    device_map="cuda:0"
)

# Using the text streamer to stream output one token at a time
streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer, skip_prompt=True, skip_special_tokens=True)

prompt = "Tell me about AI"
prompt_template=f'''{prompt}
'''

# Convert prompt to tokens
tokens = tokenizer(
    prompt_template,
    return_tensors='pt'
).input_ids.cuda()

generation_params = {
    "do_sample": True,
    "temperature": 0.7,
    "top_p": 0.95,
    "top_k": 40,
    "max_new_tokens": 512,
    "repetition_penalty": 1.1
}

# Generate streamed output, visible one token at a time
generation_output = model.generate(
    tokens,
    streamer=streamer,
    **generation_params
)

# Generation without a streamer, which will include the prompt in the output
generation_output = model.generate(
    tokens,
    **generation_params
)

# Get the tokens from the output, decode them, print them
token_output = generation_output[0]
text_output = tokenizer.decode(token_output)
print("model.generate output: ", text_output)

# Inference is also possible via Transformers' pipeline
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    **generation_params
)

pipe_output = pipe(prompt_template)[0]['generated_text']
print("pipeline output: ", pipe_output)

Original model card: LumiOpen's Poro 34B

Poro 34B Model Card

NOTE: This is a research checkpoint of a model for which training has not been completed. It is being provided in its current state for research and testing purposes. Care should be taken when using the outputs of the model. Once pretraining has completed we intend to release additional instruction-tuned and chat-tuned varieties.

Poro is a 34B parameter decoder-only transformer pretrained on Finnish, English and code. It is being trained on 1 trillion tokens (500 billion as of this release). Poro is a fully open source model and is made available under the Apache 2.0 License.

Poro was created in a collaboration between SiloGen from Silo AI, the TurkuNLP group of the University of Turku, and High Performance Language Technologies (HPLT). Training was conducted on the LUMI supercomputer, using compute resources generously provided by CSC - IT Center for Science, Finland.

This project is part of an ongoing effort to create open source large language models for non-English and especially low resource languages like Finnish. Through the combination of English and Finnish training data we get a model that outperforms previous Finnish only models, while also being fluent in English and code, and capable of basic translation between English and Finnish.

Poro 34B is only the first model of our model family. Work is already underway on our next models which will support additional languages, and include features like flash attention, rotary embeddings, and grouped query attention.

What does Poro mean? Poro is the Finnish word for Reindeer! 🦌 These animals are native to Finland and hold a significant and historical role in Finnish culture.

Model Overview

NOTE: In addition to being an early research release, Poro is a base model which needs further fine tuning for most use cases.

Poro is a generative pretrained transformer using a BLOOM architecture, and makes use of ALiBi embeddings to support context length extrapolation at inference time.

Hyperparameter	Value
n_parameters	34.2B
n_layers	54
n_heads	56
d_model	7168
vocab_size	128000
sequence_length	2048

Poro Research Checkpoints

Checkpoints are available as branches in the repository. Checkpoints will be released roughly every 100B tokens. The main branch will always point to the latest checkpoint. The following checkpoints are available:

The transformers library allows you to load a checkpoint from a branch as follows:

branch = "200B"
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "LumiOpen/Poro-34B",
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    revision=branch,
)

Training

Poro was trained on the LUMI supercomputer, using 512 AMD MI250X GPUs. Each MI250X GPU has two Graphics Complex Dies (GCDs) for a world size of 1024 during training, using activation checkpointing, a micro batch size of 1, gradient accumulation of 16, and a 3D parallelism strategy of TP=2, PP=4, DP=128.

Training began in September 2023 using a custom fork of the Megatron-Deepspeed framework.

Training Hyperparameters

Hyperparameter	Value	Comment
Precision	bfloat16
Optimizer	AdamW
Learning rate	1.5e-4	10B tokens warm-up, cosine decay to 2e-5
Weight decay	1e-1
Batch size	2048	2048 samples x 2048 tokens = 4194304 tokens

Tokenizer

Poro uses a custom 128K Bloom tokenizer trained on the same English, Finnish and Code dataset used to train the model.

Dataset

Poro is being trained on a 1 trillion token mixed dataset of English, Finnish and Code.

Dataset	Notes	Percentage	Epochs	Tokens
SlimPajama	Excluding books3 data	54.16%	1x	541.7B
Finnish	TurkuNLP Finnish dataset	13.05%	4x	131.5B
Tatoeba	English/Finnish sentence pairs	0.81%	1x	8.0B
Starcoder		31.53%	1.52x	315.4B
Project Gutenberg	from Dolma dataset	0.46%	1x	4.5B

The Finnish dataset is a combination of many Finnish resources:

Evaluation Results

Despite the early training stage, Poro already exceeds the performance of the Finnish-only FinGPT language models on the FIN-bench Finnish language benchmark.

Full evaluation results will be published with the final model.

Ethical Considerations and Limitations

Poro 34B is a release of a partially trained model, and special care should be taken when using any output.

Poro is an advanced language model, primarily optimized for English, Finnish and code, with no meaningful proficiency in any other languages. As with most AI-driven systems, Poro is a product of the vast data it has been trained on, which may reflect the imperfections, biases, and idiosyncrasies of the wider web. Poro may, at times, produce outputs that can be considered inaccurate, prejudiced, or controversial. Users and developers engaging with Poro should exercise discretion and consider additional evaluation and customization to ensure the model's responses align with their specific needs and ethical standards.
