# 🟢 What is Yi? ## 📌 Introduction - 🤖 The Yi series models are the next generation of open-source large language models trained from scratch by [01.AI](https://01.ai/). - 🙌 Targeted as a bilingual language model and trained on 3T multilingual corpus, the Yi series models become one of the strongest LLM worldwide, showing promise in language understanding, commonsense reasoning, reading comprehension, and more. For example, - For English language capability, the Yi series models ranked 2nd (just behind GPT-4), outperforming other LLMs (such as LLaMA2-chat-70B, Claude 2, and ChatGPT) on the [AlpacaEval Leaderboard](https://tatsu-lab.github.io/alpaca_eval/) in Dec 2023. - For Chinese language capability, the Yi series models landed in 2nd place (following GPT-4), surpassing other LLMs (such as Baidu ERNIE, Qwen, and Baichuan) on the [SuperCLUE](https://www.superclueai.com/) in Oct 2023. - 🙏 (Credits to LLaMA) Thanks to the Transformer and LLaMA open-source communities, as they reducing the efforts required to build from scratch and enabling the utilization of the same tools within the AI ecosystem.

For chat model limitations, see the explanations below. ⬇️

Hallucination: This refers to the model generating factually incorrect or nonsensical information. With the model's responses being more varied, there's a higher chance of hallucination that are not based on accurate data or logical reasoning.
Non-determinism in re-generation: When attempting to regenerate or sample responses, inconsistencies in the outcomes may occur. The increased diversity can lead to varying results even under similar input conditions.
Cumulative Error: This occurs when errors in the model's responses compound over time. As the model generates more diverse responses, the likelihood of small inaccuracies building up into larger errors increases, especially in complex tasks like extended reasoning, mathematical problem-solving, etc.
To achieve more coherent and consistent responses, it is advisable to adjust generation configuration parameters such as temperature, top_p, or top_k. These adjustments can help in the balance between creativity and coherence in the model's outputs.

To start a web service locally, run the following command. ```bash python demo/web_demo.py -c ``` You can access the web UI by entering the address provided in the console into your browser. ![Quick start - web demo](https://github.com/01-ai/Yi/blob/main/assets/img/yi_34b_chat_web_demo.gif?raw=true) ### Fine-tuning ```bash bash finetune/scripts/run_sft_Yi_6b.sh ``` Once finished, you can compare the finetuned model and the base model with the following command: ```bash bash finetune/scripts/run_eval.sh ```

For advanced usage (like fine-tuning based on your custom data), see the explanations below. ⬇️

### Finetune code for Yi 6B and 34B #### Preparation ##### From Image By default, we use a small dataset from [BAAI/COIG](https://huggingface.co/datasets/BAAI/COIG) to finetune the base model. You can also prepare your customized dataset in the following `jsonl` format: ```json { "prompt": "Human: Who are you? Assistant:", "chosen": "I'm Yi." } ``` And then mount them in the container to replace the default ones: ```bash docker run -it \ -v /path/to/save/finetuned/model/:/finetuned-model \ -v /path/to/train.jsonl:/yi/finetune/data/train.json \ -v /path/to/eval.jsonl:/yi/finetune/data/eval.json \ ghcr.io/01-ai/yi:latest \ bash finetune/scripts/run_sft_Yi_6b.sh ``` ##### From Local Server Make sure you have conda. If not, use ```bash mkdir -p ~/miniconda3 wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -O ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh bash ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh -b -u -p ~/miniconda3 rm -rf ~/miniconda3/miniconda.sh ~/miniconda3/bin/conda init bash source ~/.bashrc ``` Then, create a conda env: ```bash conda create -n dev_env python=3.10 -y conda activate dev_env pip install torch==2.0.1 deepspeed==0.10 tensorboard transformers datasets sentencepiece accelerate ray==2.7 ``` #### Hardware Setup For the Yi-6B model, a node with 4 GPUs, each has GPU mem larger than 60GB is recommended. For the Yi-34B model, because the usage of zero-offload technique takes a lot CPU memory, please be careful to limit the GPU numbers in 34B finetune training. Please use CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES to limit the GPU number (as shown in scripts/run_sft_Yi_34b.sh). A typical hardware setup for finetuning 34B model is a node with 8GPUS (limit to 4 in running by CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3), each has GPU mem larger than 80GB, with total CPU mem larger than 900GB. #### Quick Start Download a LLM-base model to MODEL_PATH (6B and 34B). A typical folder of models is like: ```bash |-- $MODEL_PATH | |-- config.json | |-- pytorch_model-00001-of-00002.bin | |-- pytorch_model-00002-of-00002.bin | |-- pytorch_model.bin.index.json | |-- tokenizer_config.json | |-- tokenizer.model | |-- ... ``` Download a dataset from huggingface to local storage DATA_PATH, e.g. Dahoas/rm-static. ```bash |-- $DATA_PATH | |-- data | | |-- train-00000-of-00001-2a1df75c6bce91ab.parquet | | |-- test-00000-of-00001-8c7c51afc6d45980.parquet | |-- dataset_infos.json | |-- README.md ``` `finetune/yi_example_dataset` has example datasets, which are modified from [BAAI/COIG](https://huggingface.co/datasets/BAAI/COIG) ```bash |-- $DATA_PATH |--data |-- train.jsonl |-- eval.jsonl ``` `cd` into the scripts folder, copy and paste the script, and run. For example: ```bash cd finetune/scripts bash run_sft_Yi_6b.sh ``` For the Yi-6B base model, setting training_debug_steps=20 and num_train_epochs=4 can output a chat model, which takes about 20 minutes. For the Yi-34B base model, it takes a relatively long time for initialization. Please be patient. #### Evaluation ```bash cd finetune/scripts bash run_eval.sh ``` Then you'll see the answer from both the base model and the finetuned model

### Quantization #### GPT-Q ```bash python quantization/gptq/quant_autogptq.py \ --model /base_model \ --output_dir /quantized_model \ --trust_remote_code ``` Once finished, you can then evaluate the resulting model as follows: ```bash python quantization/gptq/eval_quantized_model.py \ --model /quantized_model \ --trust_remote_code ```

For a more detailed explanation, see the explanations below. ⬇️

#### GPT-Q quantization [GPT-Q](https://github.com/IST-DASLab/gptq) is a PTQ(Post-Training Quantization) method. It's memory saving and provides potential speedups while retaining the accuracy of the model. Yi models can be GPT-Q quantized without a lot of efforts. We provide a step-by-step tutorial below. To run GPT-Q, we will use [AutoGPTQ](https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ) and [exllama](https://github.com/turboderp/exllama). And the huggingface transformers has integrated optimum and auto-gptq to perform GPTQ quantization on language models. ##### Do Quantization The `quant_autogptq.py` script is provided for you to perform GPT-Q quantization: ```bash python quant_autogptq.py --model /base_model \ --output_dir /quantized_model --bits 4 --group_size 128 --trust_remote_code ``` ##### Run Quantized Model You can run a quantized model using the `eval_quantized_model.py`: ```bash python eval_quantized_model.py --model /quantized_model --trust_remote_code ```

#### AWQ ```bash python quantization/awq/quant_autoawq.py \ --model /base_model \ --output_dir /quantized_model \ --trust_remote_code ``` Once finished, you can then evaluate the resulting model as follows: ```bash python quantization/awq/eval_quantized_model.py \ --model /quantized_model \ --trust_remote_code ```

For detailed explanations, see the explanations below. ⬇️

#### AWQ quantization [AWQ](https://github.com/mit-han-lab/llm-awq) is a PTQ(Post-Training Quantization) method. It's an efficient and accurate low-bit weight quantization (INT3/4) for LLMs. Yi models can be AWQ quantized without a lot of efforts. We provide a step-by-step tutorial below. To run AWQ, we will use [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ). ##### Do Quantization The `quant_autoawq.py` script is provided for you to perform AWQ quantization: ```bash python quant_autoawq.py --model /base_model \ --output_dir /quantized_model --bits 4 --group_size 128 --trust_remote_code ``` ##### Run Quantized Model You can run a quantized model using the `eval_quantized_model.py`: ```bash python eval_quantized_model.py --model /quantized_model --trust_remote_code ```

## 📌 Benchmarks - [📊 Chat model performance](#-chat-model-performance) - [📊 Base model performance](#-base-model-performance) ### 📊 Chat model performance Yi-34B-Chat model demonstrates exceptional performance, ranking first among all existing open-source models in the benchmarks including MMLU, CMMLU, BBH, GSM8k, and more. ![Chat model performance](https://github.com/01-ai/Yi/blob/main/assets/img/benchmark_chat.png?raw=true)

Evaluation methods and challenges. ⬇️

- **Evaluation methods**: we evaluated various benchmarks using both zero-shot and few-shot methods, except for TruthfulQA. - **Zero-shot vs. few-shot**: in chat models, the zero-shot approach is more commonly employed. - **Evaluation strategy**: our evaluation strategy involves generating responses while following instructions explicitly or implicitly (such as using few-shot examples). We then isolate relevant answers from the generated text. - **Challenges faced**: some models are not well-suited to produce output in the specific format required by instructions in few datasets, which leads to suboptimal results. *: C-Eval results are evaluated on the validation datasets

### 📊 Base model performance The Yi-34B and Yi-34B-200K models stand out as the top performers among open-source models, especially excelling in MMLU, CMML, common-sense reasoning, reading comprehension, and more. ![Base model performance](https://github.com/01-ai/Yi/blob/main/assets/img/benchmark_base.png?raw=true)

Evaluation methods. ⬇️

- **Disparity in results**: while benchmarking open-source models, a disparity has been noted between results from our pipeline and those reported by public sources like OpenCompass. - **Investigation findings**: a deeper investigation reveals that variations in prompts, post-processing strategies, and sampling techniques across models may lead to significant outcome differences. - **Uniform benchmarking process**: our methodology aligns with the original benchmarks—consistent prompts and post-processing strategies are used, and greedy decoding is applied during evaluations without any post-processing for the generated content. - **Efforts to retrieve unreported scores**: for scores that were not reported by the original authors (including scores reported with different settings), we try to get results with our pipeline. - **Extensive model evaluation**: to evaluate the model’s capability extensively, we adopted the methodology outlined in Llama2. Specifically, we included PIQA, SIQA, HellaSwag, WinoGrande, ARC, OBQA, and CSQA to assess common sense reasoning. SquAD, QuAC, and BoolQ were incorporated to evaluate reading comprehension. - **Special configurations**: CSQA was exclusively tested using a 7-shot setup, while all other tests were conducted with a 0-shot configuration. Additionally, we introduced GSM8K (8-shot@1), MATH (4-shot@1), HumanEval (0-shot@1), and MBPP (3-shot@1) under the category "Math & Code". - **Falcon-180B caveat**: Falcon-180B was not tested on QuAC and OBQA due to technical constraints. Its performance score is an average from other tasks, and considering the generally lower scores of these two tasks, Falcon-180B's capabilities are likely not underestimated.
