# AlpacOOM: Alpaca 🦙 + BLOOM 💮


## Adapter Description
This adapter was created with the [PEFT](https://github.com/huggingface/peft) library and allowed the base model **BigScience/BLOOM 7B1** to be fine-tuned on the **Stanford's Alpaca Dataset** by using the method **LoRA**.

## Model Description
BigScience Large Open-science Open-access Multilingual Language Model

[BLOOM 7B1](https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom-7b1)

## Training data
Alpaca is a dataset of **52,000** instructions and demonstrations generated by OpenAI's `text-davinci-003` engine. This instruction data can be used to conduct instruction-tuning for language models and make the language model follow instruction better.

The authors built on the data generation pipeline from [Self-Instruct framework](https://github.com/yizhongw/self-instruct) and made the following modifications:

- The `text-davinci-003` engine to generate the instruction data instead of `davinci`.
- A [new prompt](https://github.com/tatsu-lab/stanford_alpaca/blob/main/prompt.txt) was written that explicitly gave the requirement of instruction generation to `text-davinci-003`.
- Much more aggressive batch decoding was used, i.e., generating 20 instructions at once, which significantly reduced the cost of data generation.
- The data generation pipeline was simplified by discarding the difference between classification and non-classification instructions.
- Only a single instance was generated for each instruction, instead of 2 to 3 instances as in Self-Instruct.

This produced an instruction-following dataset with 52K examples obtained at a much lower cost (less than $500). 
In a preliminary study, the authors also found that the 52K generated data to be much more diverse than the data released by [Self-Instruct](https://github.com/yizhongw/self-instruct/blob/main/data/seed_tasks.jsonl).

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The Alpaca dataset is designed for instruction training pre-trained language models.

### Training procedure

TBA

## How to use
```py

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, GenerationConfig

peft_model_id = "mrm8488/Alpacoom"

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(config.base_model_name_or_path, return_dict=True, load_in_8bit=True, device_map="auto")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("bigscience/bloom-7b1")

model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(model, peft_model_id)
model.eval()
