Triangle104/falcon-7b-Q4_K_M-GGUF

This model was converted to GGUF format from tiiuae/falcon-7b using llama.cpp via the ggml.ai's GGUF-my-repo space. Refer to the original model card for more details on the model.

Model details:

Falcon-7B is a 7B parameters causal decoder-only model built by TII and trained on 1,500B tokens of RefinedWeb enhanced with curated corpora. It is made available under the Apache 2.0 license.

Paper coming soon 😊.

🤗 To get started with Falcon (inference, finetuning, quantization, etc.), we recommend reading this great blogpost fron HF! Why use Falcon-7B?

It outperforms comparable open-source models (e.g., MPT-7B, StableLM, RedPajama etc.), thanks to being trained on 1,500B tokens of RefinedWeb enhanced with curated corpora. See the OpenLLM Leaderboard.
It features an architecture optimized for inference, with FlashAttention (Dao et al., 2022) and multiquery (Shazeer et al., 2019).
It is made available under a permissive Apache 2.0 license allowing for commercial use, without any royalties or restrictions.

⚠️ This is a raw, pretrained model, which should be further finetuned for most usecases. If you are looking for a version better suited to taking generic instructions in a chat format, we recommend taking a look at Falcon-7B-Instruct.

🔥 Looking for an even more powerful model? Falcon-40B is Falcon-7B's big brother!

💥 Falcon LLMs require PyTorch 2.0 for use with transformers!

For fast inference with Falcon, check-out Text Generation Inference! Read more in this blogpost.

You will need at least 16GB of memory to swiftly run inference with Falcon-7B. Model Card for Falcon-7B Model Details Model Description

Uses Direct Use

Research on large language models; as a foundation for further specialization and finetuning for specific usecases (e.g., summarization, text generation, chatbot, etc.) Out-of-Scope Use

Production use without adequate assessment of risks and mitigation; any use cases which may be considered irresponsible or harmful. Bias, Risks, and Limitations

Falcon-7B is trained on English and French data only, and will not generalize appropriately to other languages. Furthermore, as it is trained on a large-scale corpora representative of the web, it will carry the stereotypes and biases commonly encountered online. Recommendations

We recommend users of Falcon-7B to consider finetuning it for the specific set of tasks of interest, and for guardrails and appropriate precautions to be taken for any production use. How to Get Started with the Model

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM import transformers import torch

model = "tiiuae/falcon-7b"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model) pipeline = transformers.pipeline( "text-generation", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, trust_remote_code=True, device_map="auto", ) sequences = pipeline( "Girafatron is obsessed with giraffes, the most glorious animal on the face of this Earth. Giraftron believes all other animals are irrelevant when compared to the glorious majesty of the giraffe.\nDaniel: Hello, Girafatron!\nGirafatron:", max_length=200, do_sample=True, top_k=10, num_return_sequences=1, eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id, ) for seq in sequences: print(f"Result: {seq['generated_text']}")

Training Details Training Data

Falcon-7B was trained on 1,500B tokens of RefinedWeb, a high-quality filtered and deduplicated web dataset which we enhanced with curated corpora. Significant components from our curated copora were inspired by The Pile (Gao et al., 2020). Data source Fraction Tokens Sources RefinedWeb-English 79% 1,185B massive web crawl Books 7% 110B Conversations 6% 85B Reddit, StackOverflow, HackerNews Code 3% 45B RefinedWeb-French 3% 45B massive web crawl Technical 2% 30B arXiv, PubMed, USPTO, etc.

The data was tokenized with the Falcon-7B/40B tokenizer. Training Procedure

Falcon-7B was trained on 384 A100 40GB GPUs, using a 2D parallelism strategy (PP=2, DP=192) combined with ZeRO.

Training happened in early March 2023 and took about two weeks. Evaluation

See the OpenLLM Leaderboard for early results. Technical Specifications Model Architecture and Objective

Falcon-7B is a causal decoder-only model trained on a causal language modeling task (i.e., predict the next token).

The architecture is broadly adapted from the GPT-3 paper (Brown et al., 2020), with the following differences:

Positionnal embeddings: rotary (Su et al., 2021);
Attention: multiquery (Shazeer et al., 2019) and FlashAttention (Dao et al., 2022);
Decoder-block: parallel attention/MLP with a single layer norm.

Hyperparameter Value Comment Layers 32 d_model 4544 Increased to compensate for multiquery head_dim 64 Reduced to optimise for FlashAttention Vocabulary 65024 Sequence length 2048 Compute Infrastructure Hardware

Falcon-7B was trained on AWS SageMaker, on 384 A100 40GB GPUs in P4d instances. Software

Falcon-7B was trained a custom distributed training codebase, Gigatron. It uses a 3D parallelism approach combined with ZeRO and high-performance Triton kernels (FlashAttention, etc.) Citation
