# Mixtral-8x7b-Instruct-v0.1-int4-ov

 * Model creator: [Mistral AI](https://huggingface.co/mistralai)
 * Original model: [Mixtral 8X7B Instruct v0.1](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1)

## Description

This is [Mixtral-8x7b-Instruct-v0.1](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1) model converted to the [OpenVINO™ IR](https://docs.openvino.ai/2024/documentation/openvino-ir-format.html) (Intermediate Representation) format with weights compressed to INT4 by [NNCF](https://github.com/openvinotoolkit/nncf).

## Quantization Parameters

Weight compression was performed using `nncf.compress_weights` with the following parameters:

* mode: **INT4_SYM**
* group_size: **128**
* ratio: **0.8**

For more information on quantization, check the [OpenVINO model optimization guide](https://docs.openvino.ai/2024/openvino-workflow/model-optimization-guide/weight-compression.html).

## Compatibility

The provided OpenVINO™ IR model is compatible with:

* OpenVINO version 2024.0.0 and higher
* Optimum Intel 1.16.0 and higher

## Running Model Inference

1. Install packages required for using [Optimum Intel](https://huggingface.co/docs/optimum/intel/index) integration with the OpenVINO backend:

```
pip install optimum[openvino]
```

2. Run model inference:

```
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from optimum.intel.openvino import OVModelForCausalLM

model_id = "mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = OVModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id)


messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "What is your favourite condiment?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Well, I'm quite partial to a good squeeze of fresh lemon juice. It adds just the right amount of zesty flavour to whatever I'm cooking up in the kitchen!"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Do you have mayonnaise recipes?"}
]

inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt")

outputs = model.generate(inputs, max_new_tokens=20)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
```

For more examples and possible optimizations, refer to the [OpenVINO Large Language Model Inference Guide](https://docs.openvino.ai/2024/learn-openvino/llm_inference_guide.html).
