Code License Data License Weight Diff License Python 3.9+ Code style: black

This is the repo for the Stanford Alpaca project, which aims to build and share an instruction-following LLaMA model. The repo contains:

Note: We thank the community for feedback on Stanford-Alpaca and supporting our research. Our live demo is suspended until further notice.

Usage and License Notices: Alpaca is intended and licensed for research use only. The dataset is CC BY NC 4.0 (allowing only non-commercial use) and models trained using the dataset should not be used outside of research purposes. The weight diff is also CC BY NC 4.0 (allowing only non-commercial use).

Overview

The current Alpaca model is fine-tuned from a 7B LLaMA model [1] on 52K instruction-following data generated by the techniques in the Self-Instruct [2] paper, with some modifications that we discuss in the next section. In a preliminary human evaluation, we found that the Alpaca 7B model behaves similarly to the text-davinci-003 model on the Self-Instruct instruction-following evaluation suite [2].

Alpaca is still under development, and there are many limitations that have to be addressed. Importantly, we have not yet fine-tuned the Alpaca model to be safe and harmless. We thus encourage users to be cautious when interacting with Alpaca, and to report any concerning behavior to help improve the safety and ethical considerations of the model.

Our initial release contains the data generation procedure, dataset, and training recipe. We intend to release the model weights if we are given permission to do so by the creators of LLaMA. For now, we have chosen to host a live demo to help readers better understand the capabilities and limits of Alpaca, as well as a way to help us better evaluate Alpaca's performance on a broader audience.

Please read our release blog post for more details about the model, our discussion of the potential harm and limitations of Alpaca models, and our thought process for releasing a reproducible model.

Data Release

alpaca_data.json contains 52K instruction-following data we used for fine-tuning the Alpaca model. This JSON file is a list of dictionaries, each dictionary contains the following fields:

We used the following prompts for fine-tuning the Alpaca model:

Below is an instruction that describes a task, paired with an input that provides further context. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
{instruction}

### Input:
{input}

### Response:
Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
{instruction}

### Response:

During inference (eg for the web demo), we use the user instruction with an empty input field (second option).

Data Generation Process

Running the code
  1. Set environment variables OPENAI_API_KEY to your OpenAI API key.
  2. Install the dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt.
  3. Run python -m generate_instruction generate_instruction_following_data to generate the data.

We built on the data generation pipeline from self-instruct and made the following modifications:

This produced an instruction-following dataset with 52K examples obtained at a much lower cost (less than $500). In a preliminary study, we also find our 52K generated data to be much more diverse than the data released by self-instruct. We plot the below figure (in the style of Figure 2 in the self-instruct paper to demonstrate the diversity of our data. The inner circle of the plot represents the root verb of the instructions, and the outer circle represents the direct objects.

Fine-tuning

We fine-tune our models using standard Hugging Face training code. We fine-tune LLaMA-7B and LLaMA-13B with the following hyperparameters:

Hyperparameter LLaMA-7B LLaMA-13B
Batch size 128 128
Learning rate 2e-5 1e-5
Epochs 3 5
Max length 512 512
Weight decay 0 0

To reproduce our fine-tuning runs for LLaMA, first install the requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

Below is a command that fine-tunes LLaMA-7B with our dataset on a machine with 4 A100 80G GPUs in FSDP full_shard mode. We were able to reproduce a model of similar quality as the one we hosted in our demo with the following command using Python 3.10. Replace <your_random_port> with a port of your own, <your_path_to_hf_converted_llama_ckpt_and_tokenizer> with the path to your converted checkpoint and tokenizer (following instructions in the PR), and <your_output_dir> with where you want to store your outputs.

torchrun --nproc_per_node=4 --master_port=<your_random_port> train.py \
    --model_name_or_path <your_path_to_hf_converted_llama_ckpt_and_tokenizer> \
    --data_path ./alpaca_data.json \
    --bf16 True \
    --output_dir <your_output_dir> \
    --num_train_epochs 3 \
    --per_device_train_batch_size 4 \
    --per_device_eval_batch_size 4 \
    --gradient_accumulation_steps 8 \
    --evaluation_strategy "no" \
    --save_strategy "steps" \
    --save_steps 2000 \
    --save_total_limit 1 \
    --learning_rate 2e-5 \
    --weight_decay 0. \
    --warmup_ratio 0.03 \
    --lr_scheduler_type "cosine" \
    --logging_steps 1 \
    --fsdp "full_shard auto_wrap" \
    --fsdp_transformer_layer_cls_to_wrap 'LlamaDecoderLayer' \
    --tf32 True

The same script also works for OPT fine-tuning. Here's an example for fine-tuning OPT-6.7B

torchrun --nproc_per_node=4 --master_port=<your_random_port> train.py \
    --model_name_or_path "facebook/opt-6.7b" \
    --data_path ./alpaca_data.json \
    --bf16 True \
    --output_dir <your_output_dir> \
    --num_train_epochs 3 \
    --per_device_train_batch_size 4 \
    --per_device_eval_batch_size 4 \
    --gradient_accumulation_steps 8 \
    --evaluation_strategy "no" \
    --save_strategy "steps" \
    --save_steps 2000 \
    --save_total_limit 1 \
    --learning_rate 2e-5 \
    --weight_decay 0. \
    --warmup_ratio 0.03 \
    --lr_scheduler_type "cosine" \
    --logging_steps 1 \
    --fsdp "full_shard auto_wrap" \
    --fsdp_transformer_layer_cls_to_wrap 'OPTDecoderLayer' \
    --tf32 True

Note the given training script is meant to be simple and easy to use, and is not particularly optimized. To run on more gpus, you may prefer to turn down gradient_accumulation_steps to keep a global batch size of 128. Global batch size has not been tested for optimality.

Addressing OOM

Naively, fine-tuning a 7B model requires about 7 x 4 x 4 = 112 GB of VRAM. Commands given above enable parameter sharding, so no redundant model copy is stored on any GPU. If you'd like to further reduce the memory footprint, here are some options:

Recovering Alpaca Weights

The weight diff between Alpaca-7B and LLaMA-7B is located here. To recover the original Alpaca-7B weights, follow these steps:

1. Convert Meta's released weights into huggingface format. Follow this guide:
    https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/model_doc/llama
2. Make sure you cloned the released weight diff into your local machine. The weight diff is located at:
    https://huggingface.co/tatsu-lab/alpaca-7b/tree/main
3. Run this function with the correct paths. E.g.,
    python weight_diff.py recover --path_raw <path_to_step_1_dir> --path_diff <path_to_step_2_dir> --path_tuned <path_to_store_recovered_weights>

Once step 3 completes, you should have a directory with the recovered weights, from which you can load the model like the following

import transformers
alpaca_model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("<path_to_store_recovered_weights>")
alpaca_tokenizer = transformers.AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("<path_to_store_recovered_weights>")

Searching Database…

Что это такое?Официальный репозиторий Stanford Alpaca: код и документация для дообучения модели LLaMA, следующей инструкциям, и для генерации её датасета из 52K инструкций. По предварительной человеческой оценке модель 7B вела себя похоже на text-davinci-003.
То есть это чат-бот, который можно скачать, или код и данные для его создания?Это исследовательская кодовая база плюс датасет, а не готовое приложение: вы получаете 52K примеров, пайплайн, который их сгенерировал, код для файнтюнинга и код для восстановления весов. Готового интерфейса нет; публичная демо-версия приостановлена.
Если я хочу всё воспроизвести, с чего начать?Задайте переменную окружения OPENAI_API_KEY, выполните pip install -r requirements.txt, затем python -m generate_instruction generate_instruction_following_data, чтобы заново сгенерировать 52K примеров. Файнтюнинг — это отдельная команда обучения через Hugging Face.
Безопасно ли общаться с полученной моделью?Пока нет: авторы указывают, что модель не дообучена быть безопасной и безвредной, и просят пользователей соблюдать осторожность и сообщать о тревожном поведении.
Можно ли использовать Alpaca или её датасет в коммерческих целях?Нет — Alpaca лицензирована только для исследовательского использования. Датасет и опубликованный weight diff распространяются по CC BY NC 4.0, и модели, обученные на этих данных, не должны использоваться вне исследований. Сам код репозитория — под Apache-2.0.
Сколько железа нужно для файнтюнинга?В примере из README модель LLaMA-7B дообучается на четырёх GPU A100 80G с FSDP fullshard. Наивный запуск для 7B требует около 112 ГБ видеопамяти; CPU offload, DeepSpeed stage-3 или LoRA позволяют это снизить, причём LoRA уменьшает потребление примерно до 28 ГБ через кодовую базу peft.
Как выглядит одна запись в датасете из 52K?Это словарь с инструкцией (каждая из 52K уникальна), необязательным полем input, которое есть примерно в 40% примеров, и полем output, сгенерированным text-davinci-003.
Как получить сами веса Alpaca-7B?Полные веса не скачиваются: был опубликован weight diff относительно LLaMA-7B, а код репозитория восстанавливает из него Alpaca-7B. Полные веса планировалось выпустить только с разрешения создателей LLaMA.
Скрипт файнтюнинга работает только с LLaMA?Нет — в README отмечается, что тот же скрипт подходит и для OPT, и приводится пример с OPT-6.7B.
По какому рецепту обучались опубликованные модели?Стандартный обучающий код Hugging Face на LLaMA-7B и LLaMA-13B: для 7B — batch size 128, learning rate 2e-5, 3 эпохи и максимальная длина 512; для 13B — learning rate 1e-5 и 5 эпох.
