Model Card for LLaMAntino-2-13b-ITA

Last Update: 22/01/2024

Model description

LLaMAntino-2-13b is a Large Language Model (LLM) that is an italian-adapted LLaMA 2. This model aims to provide Italian NLP researchers with a base model for natural language generation tasks.

The model was trained using QLora and using as training data clean_mc4_it medium. If you are interested in more details regarding the training procedure, you can find the code we used at the following link:

NOTICE: the code has not been released yet, we apologize for the delay, it will be available asap!

• Developed by: Pierpaolo Basile, Elio Musacchio, Marco Polignano, Lucia Siciliani, Giuseppe Fiameni, Giovanni Semeraro
• Funded by: PNRR project FAIR - Future AI Research
• Compute infrastructure: Leonardo supercomputer
• Model type: LLaMA 2
• Language(s) (NLP): Italian
• License: Llama 2 Community License
• Finetuned from model: meta-llama/Llama-2-13b-hf

How to Get Started with the Model

Below you can find an example of model usage:

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "swap-uniba/LLaMAntino-2-13b-hf-ITA"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id)

prompt = "Scrivi qui un possibile prompt"

input_ids = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").input_ids
outputs = model.generate(input_ids=input_ids)

print(tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs.detach().cpu().numpy()[:, input_ids.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True)[0])

If you are facing issues when loading the model, you can try to load it quantized:

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, load_in_8bit=True)

Note: The model loading strategy above requires the bitsandbytes and accelerate libraries
