## Model Description

`japanese-stablelm-instruct-alpha-7b-v2` is a 7B parameter decoder-only language models pre-trained built on top of the [`Japanese-StableLM-Base-Alpha-7B`](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/japanese-stablelm-base-alpha-7b) model and further fine-tuned on various instruction-following datasets.

## Usage

First install additional dependencies in [requirements.txt](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/japanese-stablelm-base-alpha-7b/blob/main/requirements.txt):

```sh
pip install sentencepiece einops
```

Then start generating text with `japanese-stablelm-instruct-alpha-7b-v2` by using the following code snippet:

```python
import torch
from transformers import LlamaTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = LlamaTokenizer.from_pretrained(
    "novelai/nerdstash-tokenizer-v1", additional_special_tokens=["▁▁"]
)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "stabilityai/japanese-stablelm-instruct-alpha-7b-v2",
    trust_remote_code=True,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    variant="fp16",
)
model.eval()

if torch.cuda.is_available():
    model = model.to("cuda")

def build_prompt(user_query, inputs="", sep="\n\n### "):
    sys_msg = "以下は、タスクを説明する指示と、文脈のある入力の組み合わせです。要求を適切に満たす応答を書きなさい。"
    p = sys_msg
    roles = ["指示", "応答"]
    msgs = [": \n" + user_query, ": \n"]
    if inputs:
        roles.insert(1, "入力")
        msgs.insert(1, ": \n" + inputs)
    for role, msg in zip(roles, msgs):
        p += sep + role + msg
    return p

# Infer with prompt without any additional input
user_inputs = {
    "user_query": "与えられたことわざの意味を小学生でも分かるように教えてください。",
    "inputs": "情けは人のためならず"
}
prompt = build_prompt(**user_inputs)

input_ids = tokenizer.encode(
    prompt, 
    add_special_tokens=False, 
    return_tensors="pt"
)

tokens = model.generate(
    input_ids.to(device=model.device),
    max_new_tokens=256,
    temperature=1,
    top_p=0.95,
    do_sample=True,
)

out = tokenizer.decode(tokens[0][input_ids.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True).strip()
print(out)
"""
「情けは人のためならず」は、「情けをかけるとその人のためにならない」という意味ではありません。
このことわざは、もともと「誰かのために行動するとその行動が回り回って自分に返ってくる」ということを説いたことわざです。
"""

```

## Training

| Parameters | Hidden Size | Layers | Heads | Sequence Length |
|------------|-------------|--------|-------|-----------------|
| 7B         | 4096        | 32     | 32    | 1024            |

### Training Dataset

`japanese-stablelm-instruct-alpha-7b-v2` is fine-tuned on a combination of following datasets:
- [Japanese translation of the Databricks Dolly-15k dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/kunishou/databricks-dolly-15k-ja)
- [Japanese translation of the subset of the Anthropic HH dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/fujiki/japanese_hh-rlhf-49k)
- [Wikinews](https://ja.wikinews.org/wi) [subset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/fujiki/llm-japanese-dataset_wikinews) of the [izumi-lab/llm-japanese-dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/izumi-lab/llm-japanese-dataset)

## Use and Limitations

### Intended Use

This model is intended to be used by the open-source community in chat-like applications in adherence with [Apache-2.0 license](https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0).

### Limitations and bias

Although the aforementioned datasets help to steer the base language models into "safer" distributions of text, not all biases and toxicity can be mitigated through fine-tuning. We ask that users be mindful of such potential issues that can arise in generated responses. Do not treat model outputs as substitutes for human judgment or as sources of truth. Please use responsibly.

## Acknowledgements

We are utilizing the v1 version of the [novelai-tokenizer](https://github.com/NovelAI/novelai-tokenizer), introduced by [NovelAI](https://novelai.net/), because it processes both Japanese and English text both effectively and efficiently. We extend our gratitude to NovelAI for allowing us to use their remarkable work. For more details about the tokenizer, please refer to their [blog post](https://blog.novelai.net/novelais-new-llm-tokenizer-5bc140e17642).

We are grateful for the contributions of the EleutherAI Polyglot-JA team in helping us to collect a large amount of pre-training data in Japanese. Polyglot-JA members includes Hyunwoong Ko (Project Lead), Fujiki Nakamura (originally started this project when he committed to the Polyglot team), Yunho Mo, Minji Jung, KeunSeok Im, and Su-Kyeong Jang.

We are also appreciative of [AI Novelist/Sta (Bit192, Inc.)](https://ai-novel.com/index.php) and the numerous contributors from [Stable Community Japan](https://discord.gg/VPrcE475HB) for assisting us in gathering a large amount of high-quality Japanese textual data for model training.
