# Mistral-7b for ONNX Runtime

## Introduction

This repository hosts the optimized versions of **Mistral-7B-v0.1** to accelerate inference with ONNX Runtime CUDA execution provider.

See the [usage instructions](#usage-example) for how to inference this model with the ONNX files hosted in this repository.

## Model Description

- **Developed by:** MistralAI
- **Model type:** Pretrained generative text model
- **License:** Apache 2.0 License
- **Model Description:** This is a conversion of the [Mistral-7B-v0.1](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mistral-7B-v0.1) for [ONNX Runtime](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime) inference with CUDA execution provider.


## Performance Comparison

#### Latency for token generation

Below is average latency of generating a token using a prompt of varying size using NVIDIA A100-SXM4-80GB GPU, taken from the [ORT benchmarking script for Mistral](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/onnxruntime/python/tools/transformers/models/llama/README.md#benchmark-mistral)

## Usage Example

Following the [benchmarking instructions](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/onnxruntime/python/tools/transformers/models/llama/README.md#mistral). Example steps:

1. Clone onnxruntime repository.
```shell
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime
cd onnxruntime
```

2. Install required dependencies
```shell
python3 -m pip install -r onnxruntime/python/tools/transformers/models/llama/requirements-cuda.txt
```

5. Inference using manual model API, or use Hugging Face's ORTModelForCausalLM
```python
from optimum.onnxruntime import ORTModelForCausalLM
from onnxruntime import InferenceSession
from transformers import AutoConfig, AutoTokenizer

sess = InferenceSession("Mistral-7B-v0.1.onnx", providers = ["CUDAExecutionProvider"])
config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-v0.1")

model = ORTModelForCausalLM(sess, config, use_cache = True, use_io_binding = True)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-v0.1")

inputs = tokenizer("Instruct: What is a fermi paradox?\nOutput:", return_tensors="pt")

outputs = model.generate(**inputs)

print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
```
