--- license: apache-2.0 --- # Model Card for Model ID bling-falcon-1b-0.1 is part of the BLING ("Best Little Instruction-following No-GPU-required") model series, instruct trained on top of a falcon-rw-1b base model. BLING models are fine-tuned with distilled high-quality custom instruct datasets, targeted at a specific subset of instruct tasks with the objective of providing a high-quality Instruct model that is 'inference-ready' on a CPU laptop even without using any advanced quantization optimizations. ### Benchmark Tests Evaluated against the benchmark test: [RAG-Instruct-Benchmark-Tester](https://www.huggingface.co/datasets/llmware/rag_instruct_benchmark_tester) Average of 2 Test Runs with 1 point for correct answer, 0.5 point for partial correct or blank / NF, 0.0 points for incorrect, and -1 points for hallucinations. --**Accuracy Score**: **80.25** correct out of 100 --Not Found Classification: 40.0% --Boolean: 41.5% --Math/Logic: 7.5% --Complex Questions (1-5): 1 (Low) --Summarization Quality (1-5): 3 (Coherent, extractive) --Hallucinations: No hallucinations observed in test runs. For test run results (and good indicator of target use cases), please see the files ("core_rag_test" and "answer_sheet" in this repo). ### Model Description - **Developed by:** llmware - **Model type:** GPTNeoX instruct-trained decoder - **Language(s) (NLP):** English - **License:** Apache 2.0 - **Finetuned from model [optional]:** tiiuae/falcon-rw-1b ## Uses The intended use of BLING models is two-fold: 1. Provide high-quality Instruct models that can run on a laptop for local testing. We have found it extremely useful when building a proof-of-concept, or working with sensitive enterprise data that must be closely guarded, especially in RAG use cases. 2. Push the state of the art for smaller Instruct-following models in the sub-7B parameter range, especially 1B-3B, as single-purpose automation tools for specific tasks through targeted fine-tuning datasets and focused "instruction" tasks. ### Direct Use BLING is designed for enterprise automation use cases, especially in knowledge-intensive industries, such as financial services, legal and regulatory industries with complex information sources. Rather than try to be "all things to all people," BLING models try to focus on a narrower set of Instructions more suitable to a ~1B parameter GPT model. BLING is ideal for rapid prototyping, testing, and the ability to perform an end-to-end workflow locally on a laptop without having to send sensitive information over an Internet-based API. The first BLING models have been trained for common RAG scenarios, specifically: question-answering, key-value extraction, and basic summarization as the core instruction types without the need for a lot of complex instruction verbiage - provide a text passage context, ask questions, and get clear fact-based responses. ## Bias, Risks, and Limitations Any model can provide inaccurate or incomplete information, and should be used in conjunction with appropriate safeguards and fact-checking mechanisms. ## How to Get Started with the Model The fastest way to get started with BLING is through direct import in transformers: from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("llmware/bling-falcon-1b-0.1") model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("llmware/bling-falcon-1b-0.1") Please refer to the generation_test .py files in the Files repository, which includes 200 samples and script to test the model. The **generation_test_llmware_script.py** includes built-in llmware capabilities for fact-checking, as well as easy integration with document parsing and actual retrieval to swap out the test set for RAG workflow consisting of business documents. The BLING model was fine-tuned with a simple "\ and \ wrapper", so to get the best results, wrap inference entries as: full_prompt = "\\: " + my_prompt + "\n" + "\\:" The BLING model was fine-tuned with closed-context samples, which assume generally that the prompt consists of two sub-parts: 1. Text Passage Context, and 2. Specific question or instruction based on the text passage To get the best results, package "my_prompt" as follows: my_prompt = {{text_passage}} + "\n" + {{question/instruction}} If you are using a HuggingFace generation script: # prepare prompt packaging used in fine-tuning process new_prompt = ": " + entries["context"] + "\n" + entries["query"] + "\n" + ":" inputs = tokenizer(new_prompt, return_tensors="pt") start_of_output = len(inputs.input_ids[0]) # temperature: set at 0.3 for consistency of output # max_new_tokens: set at 100 - may prematurely stop a few of the summaries outputs = model.generate( inputs.input_ids.to(device), eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id, pad_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id, do_sample=True, temperature=0.3, max_new_tokens=100, ) output_only = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][start_of_output:],skip_special_tokens=True) ## Citation [optional] This BLING model was built on top of a Falcon model base - for more information about the Falcon model, please see the paper referenced below: @article{refinedweb, title={The {R}efined{W}eb dataset for {F}alcon {LLM}: outperforming curated corpora with web data, and web data only}, author={Guilherme Penedo and Quentin Malartic and Daniel Hesslow and Ruxandra Cojocaru and Alessandro Cappelli and Hamza Alobeidli and Baptiste Pannier and Ebtesam Almazrouei and Julien Launay}, journal={arXiv preprint arXiv:2306.01116}, eprint={2306.01116}, eprinttype = {arXiv}, url={https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.01116}, year={2023} } ## Model Card Contact Darren Oberst & llmware team
