# OpenELM-3B-Instruct-GGUF
- Original model: [OpenELM-3B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/apple/OpenELM-3B-Instruct)
## Description
This repo contains GGUF format model files for [OpenELM-3B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/apple/OpenELM-3B-Instruct).
### About GGUF
GGUF is a new format introduced by the llama.cpp team on August 21st 2023. 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

## 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/OpenELM-3B-Instruct-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/OpenELM-3B-Instruct-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/OpenELM-3B-Instruct-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/OpenELM-3B-Instruct-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. Set to 0 if no GPU acceleration is available on your system.
llm = Llama(
model_path="./Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf", # Download the model file first
n_ctx=32768, # The max sequence length to use - note that longer sequence lengths require much more resources
n_threads=8, # The number of CPU threads to use, tailor to your system and the resulting performance
n_gpu_layers=35 # The number of layers to offload to GPU, if you have GPU acceleration available
)
# Simple inference example
output = llm(
"", # Prompt
max_tokens=512, # Generate up to 512 tokens
stop=[""], # Example stop token - not necessarily correct for this specific model! Please check before using.
echo=True # Whether to echo the prompt
)
# Chat Completion API
llm = Llama(model_path="./Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf", chat_format="llama-2") # Set chat_format according to the model you are using
llm.create_chat_completion(
messages = [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a story writing assistant."},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Write a story about llamas."
}
]
)
```

We introduce **OpenELM**, a family of **Open**-source **E**fficient **L**anguage **M**odels. OpenELM uses a layer-wise scaling strategy to efficiently allocate parameters within each layer of the transformer model, leading to enhanced accuracy. We pretrained OpenELM models using the [CoreNet](https://github.com/apple/corenet) library. We release both pretrained and instruction tuned models with 270M, 450M, 1.1B and 3B parameters.
Our pre-training dataset contains RefinedWeb, deduplicated PILE, a subset of RedPajama, and a subset of Dolma v1.6, totaling approximately 1.8 trillion tokens. Please check license agreements and terms of these datasets before using them.
## Usage
We have provided an example function to generate output from OpenELM models loaded via [HuggingFace Hub](https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/) in `generate_openelm.py`.
You can try the model by running the following command:
```
python generate_openelm.py --model apple/OpenELM-3B-Instruct --hf_access_token [HF_ACCESS_TOKEN] --prompt 'Once upon a time there was' --generate_kwargs repetition_penalty=1.2
```
Please refer to [this link](https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/security-tokens) to obtain your hugging face access token.
Additional arguments to the hugging face generate function can be passed via `generate_kwargs`. As an example, to speedup the inference, you can try [lookup token speculative generation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/generation_strategies) by passing the `prompt_lookup_num_tokens` argument as follows:
```
python generate_openelm.py --model apple/OpenELM-3B-Instruct --hf_access_token [HF_ACCESS_TOKEN] --prompt 'Once upon a time there was' --generate_kwargs repetition_penalty=1.2 prompt_lookup_num_tokens=10
```
Alternatively, try model-wise speculative generation with an [assistive model](https://huggingface.co/blog/assisted-generation) by passing a smaller model through the `assistant_model` argument, for example:
```
python generate_openelm.py --model apple/OpenELM-3B-Instruct --hf_access_token [HF_ACCESS_TOKEN] --prompt 'Once upon a time there was' --generate_kwargs repetition_penalty=1.2 --assistant_model [SMALLER_MODEL]
```

## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
The release of OpenELM models aims to empower and enrich the open research community by providing access to state-of-the-art language models. Trained on publicly available datasets, these models are made available without any safety guarantees. Consequently, there exists the possibility of these models producing outputs that are inaccurate, harmful, biased, or objectionable in response to user prompts. Thus, it is imperative for users and developers to undertake thorough safety testing and implement appropriate filtering mechanisms tailored to their specific requirements.
