Jan Philipp Harries' Vicuna 13B v1.3 German GGML

These files are GGML format model files for Jan Philipp Harries' Vicuna 13B v1.3 German.

GGML files are for CPU + GPU inference using llama.cpp and libraries and UIs which support this format, such as:

  • KoboldCpp, a powerful GGML web UI with full GPU acceleration out of the box. Especially good for story telling.
  • LoLLMS Web UI, a great web UI with GPU acceleration via the c_transformers backend.
  • LM Studio, a fully featured local GUI. Supports full GPU accel on macOS. Also supports Windows, without GPU accel.
  • text-generation-webui, the most popular web UI. Requires extra steps to enable GPU accel via llama.cpp backend.
  • ctransformers, a Python library with LangChain support and OpenAI-compatible AI server.
  • llama-cpp-python, a Python library with OpenAI-compatible API server.

Compatibility

Original llama.cpp quant methods: q4_0, q4_1, q5_0, q5_1, q8_0

These are guaranteed to be compatible with any UIs, tools and libraries released since late May. They may be phased out soon, as they are largely superseded by the new k-quant methods.

New k-quant methods: q2_K, q3_K_S, q3_K_M, q3_K_L, q4_K_S, q4_K_M, q5_K_S, q6_K

These new quantisation methods are compatible with llama.cpp as of June 6th, commit 2d43387.

They are now also compatible with recent releases of text-generation-webui, KoboldCpp, llama-cpp-python, ctransformers, rustformers and most others. For compatibility with other tools and libraries, please check their documentation.

Explanation of the new k-quant 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
  • GGML_TYPE_Q8_K - "type-0" 8-bit quantization. Only used for quantizing intermediate results. The difference to the existing Q8_0 is that the block size is 256. All 2-6 bit dot products are implemented for this quantization type.

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.

How to run in llama.cpp

I use the following command line; adjust for your tastes and needs:

./main -t 10 -ngl 32 -m vicuna-13b-v1.3-german.ggmlv3.q4_0.bin --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "### Instruction: Write a story about llamas\n### Response:"

Change -t 10 to the number of physical CPU cores you have. For example if your system has 8 cores/16 threads, use -t 8.

Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.

If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins

Original model card: Jan Philipp Harries' Vicuna 13B v1.3 German

Vicuna 13b v1.3 German

vicuna-13b-v1.3-ger is a variant of LMSYS´s Vicuna 13b v1.3 model, finetuned on an additional dataset in German language. The original model has been trained on explain tuned datasets, created using instructions and input from WizardLM, Alpaca & Dolly-V2 datasets and applying Orca Research Paper dataset construction approaches.

This model is optimized for German text, providing proficiency in understanding, generating, and interacting with German language content. However the model is not yet fully optimized for German language, as it has been trained on a small, experimental dataset and has limited capabilities due to the small parameter count. Some of the fineunting data is also targeted towards factual retrieval (only answer questions from information in the context and refuse to hallucinate) and the model should perform better for these tasks than original Vicuna.

I am working on improving the model´s capabilities and will update the model if there is sufficient interest.

A quantized GGML version for use with llama.cpp, kobold.cpp and other GUIs for CPU inference can be found here.

Prompt Template 

A chat between a curious user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions.

USER: Hello!
ASSISTANT: Hello!</s>
USER: How are you?
ASSISTANT: I am good.</s>

Results

I did only evaluate the output on a small, handcrafted sample on test prompts in German, confirming that the model's ability to understand and generate German text is above the base model in many situations.

Problems

There might be inconsistencies in multi-turn chat applications, as there was a small problem with the tokens during preparation of the finetuning dataset. Please report any problems so I can fix this for the next version.
