What BAAI says about Infinity-0625-Yi-1.5

Read the model card

Infinity-Instruct-3M-0625-Yi-1.5-9B is an opensource supervised instruction tuning model without reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF). This model is just finetuned on Infinity-Instruct-3M and Infinity-Instruct-0625 and showing favorable results on AlpacaEval 2.0 and MT-Bench.

Training Details

Infinity-Instruct-3M-0625-Yi-1.5-9B is tuned on Million-level instruction dataset Infinity-Instruct. First, we apply the foundational dataset Infinity-Instruct-3M to improve the foundational ability (math & code) of Yi-1.5-9B, and get the foundational instruct model Infinity-Instruct-3M-Yi-1.5-9B. Then we finetune the Infinity-Instruct-3M-Yi-1.5-9B to get the stronger chat model Infinity-Instruct-3M-0625-Yi-1.5-9B. Here is the training hyperparamers.

epoch: 3
lr: 1e-5
min_lr: 0
lr_warmup_steps: 40
lr_decay_style: cosine
weight_decay: 0.0
adam_beta1: 0.9
adam_beta2: 0.95
global_batch_size: 528
clip_grad: 1.0

Thanks to FlagScale, we could concatenate multiple training samples to remove padding token and apply diverse acceleration techniques to the traning procudure. It effectively reduces our training costs. We will release our code in the near future!

We evaluate Infinity-Instruct-3M-0625-Yi-1.5-9B on the two most popular instructions following benchmarks. Mt-Bench is a set of challenging multi-turn questions including code, math and routine dialogue. AlpacaEval2.0 is based on AlpacaFarm evaluation set. Both of these two benchmarks use GPT-4 to judge the model answer. AlpacaEval2.0 displays a high agreement rate with human-annotated benchmark, Chatbot Arena.

How to use

Infinity-Instruct-3M-0625-Yi-1.5-9B adopt the same chat template of Yi-1.5-9B-Chat:

How are you?
Hi!
How are you?

To apply this model and template in conversation scenarios, you can refer to the following code:

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, LogitsProcessorList
import torch
device = "cuda" # the device to load the model onto

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("BAAI/Infinity-Instruct-3M-0625-Yi-1.5-9B",
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("BAAI/Infinity-Instruct-3M-0625-Yi-1.5-9B")

prompt = "Give me a short introduction to large language model."
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]

text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=False,
    add_generation_prompt=True
)
model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(device)

logits_processor = LogitsProcessorList(
            [
                MinLengthLogitsProcessor(1, eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id),
                TemperatureLogitsWarper(0.7),
            ]
 )

generated_ids = model.generate(
    model_inputs.input_ids,
    logits_processor=logits_processor,
    max_new_tokens=512
)

generated_ids = [
    output_ids[len(input_ids):] for input_ids, output_ids in zip(model_inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
]

response = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
print(response)
