## Supported Models

- LLaMA
- Mistral
- Qwen2
- OpenELM

## Usage

1) `python -m pip install -U billm`

2) Specify start index for bi-directional layers via `export BiLLM_START_INDEX={layer_index}`. if not specified, default is 0, i.e., all layers are bi-directional. If set to -1, BiLLM is disabled.

3) Import LLMs from BiLLM and initialize them as usual with transformers.

```diff
- from transformers import (
-    LLamaModel,
-    LLamaForCausalLM,
-    LLamaForSequenceClassification,
-    MistralModel,
-    MistralForCausalLM,
-    MistralForSequenceClassification
-    Qwen2Model,
-    Qwen2ForCausalLM,
-    Qwen2ForSequenceClassification
- )

+ from billm import (
+    LLamaModel,
+    LLamaForCausalLM,
+    LLamaForSequenceClassification,
+    LLamaForTokenClassification,
+    MistralModel,
+    MistralForCausalLM,
+    MistralForSequenceClassification,
+    MistralForTokenClassification,
+    Qwen2Model,
+    Qwen2ForCausalLM,
+    Qwen2ForSequenceClassification,
+    Qwen2ForTokenClassification
+    OpenELMModel,

```

## Examples

### NER

**training:**

```bash
$ cd examples
$ WANDB_MODE=disabled BiLLM_START_INDEX=0 CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=3 python billm_ner.py \
--model_name_or_path mistralai/Mistral-7B-v0.1 \
--dataset_name_or_path conll2003 \
--push_to_hub 0
```

**inference:**

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, pipeline
from peft import PeftModel, PeftConfig
from billm import MistralForTokenClassification


label2id = {'O': 0, 'B-PER': 1, 'I-PER': 2, 'B-ORG': 3, 'I-ORG': 4, 'B-LOC': 5, 'I-LOC': 6, 'B-MISC': 7, 'I-MISC': 8}
id2label = {v: k for k, v in label2id.items()}
model_id = 'WhereIsAI/billm-mistral-7b-conll03-ner'
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
peft_config = PeftConfig.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = MistralForTokenClassification.from_pretrained(
    peft_config.base_model_name_or_path,
    num_labels=len(label2id), id2label=id2label, label2id=label2id
)
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(model, model_id)
# merge and unload is necessary for inference
model = model.merge_and_unload()

token_classifier = pipeline("token-classification", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, aggregation_strategy="simple")
sentence = "I live in Hong Kong. I am a student at Hong Kong PolyU."
tokens = token_classifier(sentence)
print(tokens)
```
