[Optimum Habana](https://github.com/huggingface/optimum-habana) is the interface between the Hugging Face Transformers and Diffusers libraries and Habana's Gaudi processor (HPU).
It provides a set of tools enabling easy and fast model loading, training and inference on single- and multi-HPU settings for different downstream tasks.
Learn more about how to take advantage of the power of Habana HPUs to train and deploy Transformers and Diffusers models at [hf.co/hardware/habana](https://huggingface.co/hardware/habana).

## GPT2 model HPU configuration

This model only contains the `GaudiConfig` file for running the [GPT2](https://huggingface.co/gpt2) model on Habana's Gaudi processors (HPU).

**This model contains no model weights, only a GaudiConfig.**

This enables to specify:
- `use_habana_mixed_precision`: whether to use Habana Mixed Precision (HMP)
    - `hmp_opt_level`: optimization level for HMP, see [here](https://docs.habana.ai/en/latest/PyTorch/PyTorch_Mixed_Precision/PT_Mixed_Precision.html#configuration-options) for a detailed explanation
    - `hmp_bf16_ops`: list of operators that should run in bf16
    - `hmp_fp32_ops`: list of operators that should run in fp32
    - `hmp_is_verbose`: verbosity
- `use_fused_adam`: whether to use Habana's custom AdamW implementation
- `use_fused_clip_norm`: whether to use Habana's fused gradient norm clipping operator

## Usage

The model is instantiated the same way as in the Transformers library.
The only difference is that there are a few new training arguments specific to HPUs.

[Here](https://github.com/huggingface/optimum-habana/blob/main/examples/language-modeling/run_clm.py) is a causal language modeling example script to pre-train/fine-tune a model. You can run it with GPT2 with the following command:
```bash
python run_clm.py \
    --model_name_or_path gpt2 \
    --dataset_name wikitext \
    --dataset_config_name wikitext-2-raw-v1 \
    --per_device_train_batch_size 4 \
    --per_device_eval_batch_size 4 \
    --do_train \
    --do_eval \
    --output_dir /tmp/test-clm \
    --gaudi_config_name Habana/gpt2 \
    --use_habana \
    --use_lazy_mode \
    --throughput_warmup_steps 2
```
