Function Calling Llama 2 + Mistral Models (version 2)

Function calling Llama extends the hugging face Llama 2 models with function calling capabilities.
The model responds with a structured json argument with the function name and arguments.

Recent Updates

October 11th 2023 -> added Mistral 7B with function calling
October 11th 2023 -> new models pushed, trained on an improved underlying dataset

Improvements with v2

Shortened syntax: Only function descriptions are needed for inference and no added instruction is required.
Function descriptions are moved outside of the system prompt. This avoids the behaviour of function calling being affected by how the system prompt had been trained to influence the model.

Available models:

Llama-7B-chat with function calling (Base Model), (PEFT Adapters), ([GGUF - files are in the main branch of the base model]) - Free
Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.1 with function calling (Base Model), (PEFT Adapters) - Paid, purchase here
Llama-13B-chat with function calling (Base Model), (PEFT Adapters) - Paid, purchase here
CodeLlama-34B-Instruct with function calling (Base Model), (PEFT Adapters) - Paid, purchase here
Llama-70B-chat with function calling (Base Model), (PEFT Adapters) - Paid, purchase here

Performance and Tips

Larger models are better at handling function calling. The cross entropy training losses are approximately 0.5 for 7B, 0.4 for 13B, 0.3 for 70B. The absolute numbers don't mean anything but the relative values offer a sense of relative performance.
Provide very clear function descriptions, including whether the arguments are required or what the default values should be.
Make sure to post-process the language model's response to check that all necessary information is provided by the user. If not, prompt the user to let them know they need to provide more info (e.g. their name, order number etc.)

Inference

Quick Start in Google Colab Try out this notebook fLlama_Inference notebook

Commercial Applications You can this model with text-generation-interface and chat-ui

Here is the github for setup

And here is a video showing it working with llama-2-7b-chat-hf-function-calling-v2 (note that we've now moved to v2)

Note that you'll still need to code the server-side handling of making the function calls (which obviously depends on what functions you want to use).

Syntax

Prompt Templates

The function descriptions must be wrapped within a function block. You can put this function below before or after the system message block.

Example without a system message:

  # Define the roles and markers
  B_INST, E_INST = "[INST]", "[/INST]"
  B_FUNC, E_FUNC = "<FUNCTIONS>", "</FUNCTIONS>\n\n"

  functionList = {function_1_metadata}{function_2_metadata}...
  user_prompt = '...'

  # Format your prompt template
  prompt = f"{B_FUNC}{functionList.strip()}{E_FUNC}{B_INST} {user_prompt.strip()} {E_INST}\n\n"

Example with a system message:

  # Define the roles and markers
  B_INST, E_INST = "[INST]", "[/INST]"
  B_FUNC, E_FUNC = "<FUNCTIONS>", "</FUNCTIONS>\n\n"
  B_SYS, E_SYS = "<<SYS>>\n", "\n<</SYS>>\n\n"

  # assuming functionList is defined as above
  system_prompt = '...'
  user_prompt = '...'

  # Format your prompt template
  prompt = f"{B_FUNC}{functionList.strip()}{E_FUNC}{B_INST} {B_SYS}{system_prompt.strip()}{E_SYS}{user_prompt.strip()} {E_INST}\n\n"

Notice that the function block is placed at the very start of the sequence, before 'B_INST'.

Function Metadata Template

functionMetadata should be a string representation of a JSON object, like this:

"functionMetadata": {
        "function": "search_bing",
        "description": "Search the web for content on Bing. This allows users to search online/the internet/the web for content.",
        "arguments": [
            {
                "name": "query",
                "type": "string",
                "description": "The search query string"
            }
        ]
    }
'''

and the language model should respond with a json object formatted like this:

{
    "function": "function_name",
    "arguments": {
        "argument1": "argument_value",
        "argument2": "argument_value"
    }
}

It is recommended to handle cases where:

There is no json object in the response
The response contains text in addition to the json response

Sample functionList

{
    "function": "search_bing",
    "description": "Search the web for content on Bing. This allows users to search online/the internet/the web for content.",
    "arguments": [
        {
            "name": "query",
            "type": "string",
            "description": "The search query string"
        }
    ]
}

{
    "function": "search_arxiv",
    "description": "Search for research papers on ArXiv. Make use of AND, OR and NOT operators as appropriate to join terms within the query.",
    "arguments": [
        {
            "name": "query",
            "type": "string",
            "description": "The search query string"
        }
    ]
}

Training Set Argument Types

Models were fine-tuned on argument types including strings, numbers and arrays. The training set includes function calls with 0, 1, 2 or 3 arguments. The larger the model the better it will generalise beyond these types.

Here is a function call with an array:

{ "function": "delete_file", "arguments": { "fileNames": [ "Dissecting Transformer Length Extrapolation via The Lens of Receptive Field Analysis", "Luna- Linear Unified Nested Attention", "Substack_Inc_2021_2020_GAAP_Audited_Financials" ] } }

Here is a function call with three arguments:

{ "function": "save_chat", "arguments": { "fileName": "KiteDiscussion", "fileDescription": "Notes on one and two stringed kites", "fileContent": "--- **Types of Kite** There are one and two string kites. The two string ones are easier to control, although you can get the cords tangled. The one-stringed ones are sometimes used for kite fights, and you lose the kite and have to run after it if the string breaks. ---" } }

Below follows information on the original Llama 2 model...

Llama 2

Llama 2 is a collection of pretrained and fine-tuned generative text models ranging in scale from 7 billion to 70 billion parameters. This is the repository for the 7B fine-tuned model, optimized for dialogue use cases and converted for the Hugging Face Transformers format. Links to other models can be found in the index at the bottom.

Model Details

Note: Use of this model is governed by the Meta license. In order to download the model weights and tokenizer, please visit the website and accept our License before requesting access here.

Meta developed and publicly released the Llama 2 family of large language models (LLMs), a collection of pretrained and fine-tuned generative text models ranging in scale from 7 billion to 70 billion parameters. Our fine-tuned LLMs, called Llama-2-Chat, are optimized for dialogue use cases. Llama-2-Chat models outperform open-source chat models on most benchmarks we tested, and in our human evaluations for helpfulness and safety, are on par with some popular closed-source models like ChatGPT and PaLM.

Model Developers Meta

Variations Llama 2 comes in a range of parameter sizes — 7B, 13B, and 70B — as well as pretrained and fine-tuned variations.

Input Models input text only.

Output Models generate text only.

Model Architecture Llama 2 is an auto-regressive language model that uses an optimized transformer architecture. The tuned versions use supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) to align to human preferences for helpfulness and safety.

	Training Data	Params	Content Length	GQA	Tokens	LR
Llama 2	A new mix of publicly available online data	7B	4k	✗	2.0T	3.0 x 10^-4
Llama 2	A new mix of publicly available online data	13B	4k	✗	2.0T	3.0 x 10^-4
Llama 2	A new mix of publicly available online data	70B	4k	✔	2.0T	1.5 x 10^-4

Llama 2 family of models. Token counts refer to pretraining data only. All models are trained with a global batch-size of 4M tokens. Bigger models - 70B -- use Grouped-Query Attention (GQA) for improved inference scalability.

Model Dates Llama 2 was trained between January 2023 and July 2023.

Status This is a static model trained on an offline dataset. Future versions of the tuned models will be released as we improve model safety with community feedback.

Intended Use

Intended Use Cases Llama 2 is intended for commercial and research use in English. Tuned models are intended for assistant-like chat, whereas pretrained models can be adapted for a variety of natural language generation tasks.

To get the expected features and performance for the chat versions, a specific formatting needs to be followed, including the INST and <<SYS>> tags, BOS and EOS tokens, and the whitespaces and breaklines in between (we recommend calling strip() on inputs to avoid double-spaces). See our reference code in github for details: chat_completion.

Out-of-scope Uses Use in any manner that violates applicable laws or regulations (including trade compliance laws).Use in languages other than English. Use in any other way that is prohibited by the Acceptable Use Policy and Licensing Agreement for Llama 2.

Hardware and Software

Training Factors We used custom training libraries, Meta's Research Super Cluster, and production clusters for pretraining. Fine-tuning, annotation, and evaluation were also performed on third-party cloud compute.

Carbon Footprint Pretraining utilized a cumulative 3.3M GPU hours of computation on hardware of type A100-80GB (TDP of 350-400W). Estimated total emissions were 539 tCO2eq, 100% of which were offset by Meta’s sustainability program.

	Time (GPU hours)	Power Consumption (W)	Carbon Emitted(tCO₂eq)
Llama 2 7B	184320	400	31.22
Llama 2 13B	368640	400	62.44
Llama 2 70B	1720320	400	291.42
Total	3311616		539.00

CO₂ emissions during pretraining. Time: total GPU time required for training each model. Power Consumption: peak power capacity per GPU device for the GPUs used adjusted for power usage efficiency. 100% of the emissions are directly offset by Meta's sustainability program, and because we are openly releasing these models, the pretraining costs do not need to be incurred by others.

Training Data

Overview Llama 2 was pretrained on 2 trillion tokens of data from publicly available sources. The fine-tuning data includes publicly available instruction datasets, as well as over one million new human-annotated examples. Neither the pretraining nor the fine-tuning datasets include Meta user data.

Data Freshness The pretraining data has a cutoff of September 2022, but some tuning data is more recent, up to July 2023.

Ethical Considerations and Limitations

Llama 2 is a new technology that carries risks with use. Testing conducted to date has been in English, and has not covered, nor could it cover all scenarios. For these reasons, as with all LLMs, Llama 2’s potential outputs cannot be predicted in advance, and the model may in some instances produce inaccurate, biased or other objectionable responses to user prompts. Therefore, before deploying any applications of Llama 2, developers should perform safety testing and tuning tailored to their specific applications of the model.
