Yi 34B 200K DARE MegaMerge V8 - GPTQ

Description

This repo contains GPTQ model files for brucethemoose's Yi 34B 200K DARE MegaMerge V8.

Multiple GPTQ parameter permutations are provided; see Provided Files below for details of the options provided, their parameters, and the software used to create them.

Known compatible clients / servers

GPTQ models are currently supported on Linux (NVidia/AMD) and Windows (NVidia only). macOS users: please use GGUF models.

These GPTQ models are known to work in the following inference servers/webuis.

This may not be a complete list; if you know of others, please let me know!

Provided files, and GPTQ parameters

Multiple quantisation parameters are provided, to allow you to choose the best one for your hardware and requirements.

Each separate quant is in a different branch. See below for instructions on fetching from different branches.

Most GPTQ files are made with AutoGPTQ. Mistral models are currently made with Transformers.

Explanation of GPTQ parameters
  • Bits: The bit size of the quantised model.
  • GS: GPTQ group size. Higher numbers use less VRAM, but have lower quantisation accuracy. "None" is the lowest possible value.
  • Act Order: True or False. Also known as desc_act. True results in better quantisation accuracy. Some GPTQ clients have had issues with models that use Act Order plus Group Size, but this is generally resolved now.
  • Damp %: A GPTQ parameter that affects how samples are processed for quantisation. 0.01 is default, but 0.1 results in slightly better accuracy.
  • GPTQ dataset: The calibration dataset used during quantisation. Using a dataset more appropriate to the model's training can improve quantisation accuracy. Note that the GPTQ calibration dataset is not the same as the dataset used to train the model - please refer to the original model repo for details of the training dataset(s).
  • Sequence Length: The length of the dataset sequences used for quantisation. Ideally this is the same as the model sequence length. For some very long sequence models (16+K), a lower sequence length may have to be used. Note that a lower sequence length does not limit the sequence length of the quantised model. It only impacts the quantisation accuracy on longer inference sequences.
  • ExLlama Compatibility: Whether this file can be loaded with ExLlama, which currently only supports Llama and Mistral models in 4-bit.

How to download, including from branches

In text-generation-webui

To download from the main branch, enter TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ in the "Download model" box.

To download from another branch, add :branchname to the end of the download name, eg TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ:gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True

From the command line

I recommend using the huggingface-hub Python library:

pip3 install huggingface-hub

To download the main branch to a folder called Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ:

mkdir Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ --local-dir Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False

To download from a different branch, add the --revision parameter:

mkdir Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ --revision gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True --local-dir Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False
More advanced huggingface-cli download usage

If you remove the --local-dir-use-symlinks False parameter, the files will instead be stored in the central Hugging Face cache directory (default location on Linux is: ~/.cache/huggingface), and symlinks will be added to the specified --local-dir, pointing to their real location in the cache. This allows for interrupted downloads to be resumed, and allows you to quickly clone the repo to multiple places on disk without triggering a download again. The downside, and the reason why I don't list that as the default option, is that the files are then hidden away in a cache folder and it's harder to know where your disk space is being used, and to clear it up if/when you want to remove a download model.

The cache location can be changed with the HF_HOME environment variable, and/or the --cache-dir parameter to huggingface-cli.

For more documentation on downloading with huggingface-cli, please see: HF -> Hub Python Library -> Download files -> Download from the CLI.

To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install hf_transfer:

pip3 install hf_transfer

And set environment variable HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER to 1:

mkdir Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ
HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ --local-dir Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False

Windows Command Line users: You can set the environment variable by running set HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 before the download command.

With git (not recommended)

To clone a specific branch with git, use a command like this:

git clone --single-branch --branch gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ

Note that using Git with HF repos is strongly discouraged. It will be much slower than using huggingface-hub, and will use twice as much disk space as it has to store the model files twice (it stores every byte both in the intended target folder, and again in the .git folder as a blob.)

How to easily download and use this model in text-generation-webui

Please make sure you're using the latest version of text-generation-webui.

It is strongly recommended to use the text-generation-webui one-click-installers unless you're sure you know how to make a manual install.

  1. Click the Model tab.

  2. Under Download custom model or LoRA, enter TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ.

    • To download from a specific branch, enter for example TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ:gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True
    • see Provided Files above for the list of branches for each option.
  3. Click Download.

  4. The model will start downloading. Once it's finished it will say "Done".

  5. In the top left, click the refresh icon next to Model.

  6. In the Model dropdown, choose the model you just downloaded: Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ

  7. The model will automatically load, and is now ready for use!

  8. If you want any custom settings, set them and then click Save settings for this model followed by Reload the Model in the top right.

    • Note that you do not need to and should not set manual GPTQ parameters any more. These are set automatically from the file quantize_config.json.
  9. Once you're ready, click the Text Generation tab and enter a prompt to get started!

Serving this model from Text Generation Inference (TGI)

It's recommended to use TGI version 1.1.0 or later. The official Docker container is: ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.1.0

Example Docker parameters:

--model-id TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ --port 3000 --quantize gptq --max-input-length 3696 --max-total-tokens 4096 --max-batch-prefill-tokens 4096

Example Python code for interfacing with TGI (requires huggingface-hub 0.17.0 or later):

pip3 install huggingface-hub
from huggingface_hub import InferenceClient

endpoint_url = "https://your-endpoint-url-here"

Python code example: inference from this GPTQ model

Install the necessary packages

Requires: Transformers 4.33.0 or later, Optimum 1.12.0 or later, and AutoGPTQ 0.4.2 or later.

pip3 install --upgrade transformers optimum
# If using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 12.x:
pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq
# or, if using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 11.x:
pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq --extra-index-url https://huggingface.github.io/autogptq-index/whl/cu118/

If you are using PyTorch 2.0, you will need to install AutoGPTQ from source. Likewise if you have problems with the pre-built wheels, you should try building from source:

pip3 uninstall -y auto-gptq
git clone https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ
cd AutoGPTQ
git checkout v0.5.1
pip3 install .

Example Python code

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, pipeline

model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-megamerge-v8-GPTQ"
# To use a different branch, change revision
# For example: revision="gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path,
                                             device_map="auto",
                                             trust_remote_code=False,
                                             revision="main")

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path, use_fast=True)

prompt = "Write a story about llamas"
system_message = "You are a story writing assistant"
prompt_template=f'''SYSTEM: {system_message}
USER: {prompt}
ASSISTANT:
'''

print("\n\n*** Generate:")

input_ids = tokenizer(prompt_template, return_tensors='pt').input_ids.cuda()
output = model.generate(inputs=input_ids, temperature=0.7, do_sample=True, top_p=0.95, top_k=40, max_new_tokens=512)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0]))

# Inference can also be done using transformers' pipeline

print("*** Pipeline:")
pipe = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    max_new_tokens=512,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.95,
    top_k=40,
    repetition_penalty=1.1
)

print(pipe(prompt_template)[0]['generated_text'])

Original model card: brucethemoose's Yi 34B 200K DARE MegaMerge V8

Yi 34B 200K DARE Merge v8

A merge of many Yi 34B 200K models using the new DARE Ties method via mergekit. The goal is to create a merge model that excels at 32K+ context performance, without any additional finetuning.

Prompt template: Orca-Vicuna

SYSTEM: {system_message}
USER: {prompt}
ASSISTANT:

It might recognize ChatML, and possibly Alpaca-like formats. Raw prompting as described here is also effective: https://old.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/18zqy4s/the_secret_to_writing_quality_stories_with_llms/

Running

Being a Yi model, run a lower temperature with 0.05 or higher MinP, a little repetition penalty, maybe mirostat with a low tau, and no other samplers. Yi tends to run "hot" by default, and it really needs a low temperature + MinP to cull Yi's huge vocabulary. See the explanation here: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/3841

24GB GPUs can efficiently run Yi-34B-200K models at 40K-90K context with exllamav2, and performant UIs like exui. I go into more detail in this post. 16GB GPUs can still run the high context with aggressive quantization.

I recommend exl2 quantizations profiled on data similar to the desired task. It is especially sensitive to the quantization data at low bpw. I've upload my own fiction-oriented quantizations here: https://huggingface.co/collections/brucethemoose/most-recent-merge-65742644ca03b6c514afa204

To load/train this in full-context backends like transformers, you must change max_position_embeddings in config.json to a lower value than 200,000, otherwise you will OOM! I do not recommend running high context without context-efficient backends like exllamav2, litellm or unsloth.

Testing Notes

See: https://huggingface.co/brucethemoose/Yi-34B-200K-DARE-merge-v5#testing-notes

An intermediate merge model was created to try and extend the context of several 4k models before adding them to the main merge, as seen in the "megamerge" recipe below. I can upload this upon request

In addition, the weight gradients are biased towards Vicuna-format models in the first few layers to try and "emphasize" the Orca-Vicuna prompt template. How sucessful this is remains to be seen.

Merge Details

Merge Method

This model was merged using the DARE TIES merge method using /home/alpha/Storage/Models/Raw/chargoddard_Yi-34B-200K-Llama as a base.
