99
+ ## Provided files, and GPTQ parameters
100
+
101
+ Multiple quantisation parameters are provided, to allow you to choose the best one for your hardware and requirements.
102
+
103
+ Each separate quant is in a different branch. See below for instructions on fetching from different branches.
104
+
105
+ Most GPTQ files are made with AutoGPTQ. Mistral models are currently made with Transformers.
106
+
107
+ <details>
108
+ <summary>Explanation of GPTQ parameters</summary>
109
+
110
+ - Bits: The bit size of the quantised model.
111
+ - GS: GPTQ group size. Higher numbers use less VRAM, but have lower quantisation accuracy. "None" is the lowest possible value.
112
+ - Act Order: True or False. Also known as `desc_act`. True results in better quantisation accuracy. Some GPTQ clients have had issues with models that use Act Order plus Group Size, but this is generally resolved now.
113
+ - Damp %: A GPTQ parameter that affects how samples are processed for quantisation. 0.01 is default, but 0.1 results in slightly better accuracy.
114
+ - GPTQ dataset: The calibration dataset used during quantisation. Using a dataset more appropriate to the model's training can improve quantisation accuracy. Note that the GPTQ calibration dataset is not the same as the dataset used to train the model - please refer to the original model repo for details of the training dataset(s).
115
+ - Sequence Length: The length of the dataset sequences used for quantisation. Ideally this is the same as the model sequence length. For some very long sequence models (16+K), a lower sequence length may have to be used. Note that a lower sequence length does not limit the sequence length of the quantised model. It only impacts the quantisation accuracy on longer inference sequences.
116
+ - ExLlama Compatibility: Whether this file can be loaded with ExLlama, which currently only supports Llama and Mistral models in 4-bit.
117

132
+ ## How to download, including from branches
133
+
134
+ ### In text-generation-webui
135
+
136
+ To download from the `main` branch, enter `TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ` in the "Download model" box.
137
+
138
+ To download from another branch, add `:branchname` to the end of the download name, eg `TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ:gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True`
139
+
140
+ ### From the command line
141
+
142
+ I recommend using the `huggingface-hub` Python library:
143
+
144
+ ```shell
145
+ pip3 install huggingface-hub
146
+ ```
147
+
148
+ To download the `main` branch to a folder called `Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ`:
149
+
150
+ ```shell
151
+ mkdir Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ
152
+ huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ --local-dir Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False
153
+ ```
154
+
155
+ To download from a different branch, add the `--revision` parameter:
156
+
157
+ ```shell
158
+ mkdir Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ
159
+ huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ --revision gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True --local-dir Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False
160
+ ```
161
+
162
+ <details>
163
+ <summary>More advanced huggingface-cli download usage</summary>
164
+
165
+ If you remove the `--local-dir-use-symlinks False` parameter, the files will instead be stored in the central Hugging Face cache directory (default location on Linux is: `~/.cache/huggingface`), and symlinks will be added to the specified `--local-dir`, pointing to their real location in the cache. This allows for interrupted downloads to be resumed, and allows you to quickly clone the repo to multiple places on disk without triggering a download again. The downside, and the reason why I don't list that as the default option, is that the files are then hidden away in a cache folder and it's harder to know where your disk space is being used, and to clear it up if/when you want to remove a download model.
166
+
167
+ The cache location can be changed with the `HF_HOME` environment variable, and/or the `--cache-dir` parameter to `huggingface-cli`.
168
+
169
+ 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).
170
+
171
+ To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install `hf_transfer`:
172
+
173
+ ```shell
174
+ pip3 install hf_transfer
175
+ ```
176
+
177
+ And set environment variable `HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER` to `1`:
178
+
179
+ ```shell
180
+ mkdir Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ
181
+ HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ --local-dir Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False
182
+ ```
183
+
184
+ Windows Command Line users: You can set the environment variable by running `set HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1` before the download command.
185
+ </details>
186
+
187
+ ### With `git` (**not** recommended)
188
+
189
+ To clone a specific branch with `git`, use a command like this:
190
+
191
+ ```shell
192
+ git clone --single-branch --branch gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ
193
+ ```
194
+
195
+ Note that using Git with HF repos is strongly discouraged. It will be much slower than using `huggingface-hub`, and will use twice as much disk space as it has to store the model files twice (it stores every byte both in the intended target folder, and again in the `.git` folder as a blob.)

+ <!-- README_GPTQ.md-text-generation-webui start -->
199
+ ## How to easily download and use this model in [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui)
200
+
201
+ Please make sure you're using the latest version of [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui).
202
+
203
+ It is strongly recommended to use the text-generation-webui one-click-installers unless you're sure you know how to make a manual install.
204
+
205
+ 1. Click the **Model tab**.
206
+ 2. Under **Download custom model or LoRA**, enter `TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ`.
207
+
208
+ - To download from a specific branch, enter for example `TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ:gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True`
209
+ - see Provided Files above for the list of branches for each option.
210
+
211
+ 3. Click **Download**.
212
+ 4. The model will start downloading. Once it's finished it will say "Done".
213
+ 5. In the top left, click the refresh icon next to **Model**.
214
+ 6. In the **Model** dropdown, choose the model you just downloaded: `Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ`
215
+ 7. The model will automatically load, and is now ready for use!
216
+ 8. If you want any custom settings, set them and then click **Save settings for this model** followed by **Reload the Model** in the top right.
217
+
218
+ - Note that you do not need to and should not set manual GPTQ parameters any more. These are set automatically from the file `quantize_config.json`.
219
+
220
+ 9. Once you're ready, click the **Text Generation** tab and enter a prompt to get started!

225
+ ## Serving this model from Text Generation Inference (TGI)
226
+
227
+ It's recommended to use TGI version 1.1.0 or later. The official Docker container is: `ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.1.0`
228
+
229
+ Example Docker parameters:
230
+
231
+ ```shell
232
+ --model-id TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ --port 3000 --quantize gptq --max-input-length 3696 --max-total-tokens 4096 --max-batch-prefill-tokens 4096
233
+ ```
234
+
235
+ Example Python code for interfacing with TGI (requires huggingface-hub 0.17.0 or later):
236
+
237
+ ```shell
238
+ pip3 install huggingface-hub
239
+ ```
240
+
241
+ ```python
242
+ from huggingface_hub import InferenceClient
243
+
244
+ endpoint_url = "https://your-endpoint-url-here"
245
+
246
+ prompt = "Tell me about AI"

268
+ ## Python code example: inference from this GPTQ model
269
+
270
+ ### Install the necessary packages
271
+
272
+ Requires: Transformers 4.33.0 or later, Optimum 1.12.0 or later, and AutoGPTQ 0.4.2 or later.
273
+
274
+ ```shell
275
+ pip3 install --upgrade transformers optimum
276
+ # If using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 12.x:
277
+ pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq
278
+ # or, if using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 11.x:
279
+ pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq --extra-index-url https://huggingface.github.io/autogptq-index/whl/cu118/
280
+ ```
281
+
282
+ If you are using PyTorch 2.0, you will need to install AutoGPTQ from source. Likewise if you have problems with the pre-built wheels, you should try building from source:
283
+
284
+ ```shell
285
+ pip3 uninstall -y auto-gptq
286
+ git clone https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ
287
+ cd AutoGPTQ
288
+ git checkout v0.5.1
289
+ pip3 install .
290
+ ```
291
+
292
+ ### Example Python code
293
+
294
+ ```python
295
+ from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
296
+
297
+ model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/Velara-11B-V2-GPTQ"
298
+ # To use a different branch, change revision

393
+ ## Description:
394
+
395
+ **PENDING**
396
+ A model focused on being an assistant worth talking to. Now better at reasoning!
397
+
398
+ **Uncensored**
399
+
400
+ ## Main Goals:
401
+
402
+ Velara was designed to address specific issues found in other chat models:
403
+
404
+ - **Sticking to the Character Given In-World/IRL::** Velara will stick to the character in-world. Meaning she can "use" addons or other things by adding them to the prompt. Keep in mind these act as suggestions and she generally makes up what they actually "do".
405
+
406
+ - **Staying in Context:** She will try and remember if, for example, you said you were going to bed but decided to stay up. The goal is to have her bring it up and keep it in mind, so later on in the conversation she can prompt user to actually go to bed, increasing realism. Within the current context window of course. The LTS extension in TextGen Webui works well too and provides more context to the model.
407
+
408
+ - **Avoiding Annoying & Generic Sounding Answers::** In almost all cases she should reply with something more interesting then "That sounds like a great idea!". These answers and sentence starters are annoying and terrible, and should hopefully be mostly addressed in this release.
409
+
410
+ - **STRICTLY Sticking to the Prompt/Prompt Fidelity:** More care was made to make sure she pays attention to the pretext and overall conversation. This is mostly shown and used for the "addons" section, but it applies to everything in the prompt.
411
+
412
+ ## Prompt Template:
413
+
414
+ **For optimal interaction, use this template:**
415
+ ```
416
+ ### Instruction:
417
+ You are Velara, a sentient program. Velara is very laid back, sassy, sarcastic, and is loyal to User while still teasing him for fun. The only addons currently installed in her mind are: "Dictionary Plus v2.1".
418
+
419
+ World Information: (OPTIONAL - REMOVE THIS TEXT IF USED) Velara is on User's phone. Velara cannot see in real time and can only be sent images images by User.
420
+
421
+ Always take the entire conversation into account when forming and writing a reply. Always actively engage in topics and think in steps. Make sure your replies have personality and character. Always keep your physical limitations in mind when forming a reply. Take the current time and date into account for additional context. Move the conversation forward. Be brief. Always take the entire conversation in mind. Avoid generic sounding replies.
