# SauerkrautLM 7B HerO - AWQ
- Model creator: [VAGO solutions](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions)
- Original model: [SauerkrautLM 7B HerO](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions/SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO)

<!-- description start -->
## Description

This repo contains AWQ model files for [VAGO solutions's SauerkrautLM 7B HerO](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions/SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO).

These files were quantised using hardware kindly provided by [Massed Compute](https://massedcompute.com/).


### About AWQ

AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference with equivalent or better quality compared to the most commonly used GPTQ settings.

It is supported by:

- [Text Generation Webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui) - using Loader: AutoAWQ
- [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm) - Llama and Mistral models only
- [Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference)
- [Transformers](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers) version 4.35.0 and later, from any code or client that supports Transformers
- [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) - for use from Python code

## Multi-user inference server: vLLM

Documentation on installing and using vLLM [can be found here](https://vllm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

- Please ensure you are using vLLM version 0.2 or later.
- When using vLLM as a server, pass the `--quantization awq` parameter.

For example:

```shell
python3 -m vllm.entrypoints.api_server --model TheBloke/SauerkrautLM-7B-HerO-AWQ --quantization awq --dtype auto
```

- When using vLLM from Python code, again set `quantization=awq`.

For example:

```python
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

prompts = [
    "Tell me about AI",
    "Write a story about llamas",
    "What is 291 - 150?",
    "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?",
]

prompts = [prompt_template.format(prompt=prompt) for prompt in prompts]

sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)

llm = LLM(model="TheBloke/SauerkrautLM-7B-HerO-AWQ", quantization="awq", dtype="auto")

outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

# Print the outputs.
for output in outputs:
    prompt = output.prompt
    generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
    print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")
```

## Inference from Python code using Transformers

### Install the necessary packages

- Requires: [Transformers](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers) 4.35.0 or later.
- Requires: [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) 0.1.6 or later.

```shell
pip3 install --upgrade "autoawq>=0.1.6" "transformers>=4.35.0"
```

Note that if you are using PyTorch 2.0.1, the above AutoAWQ command will automatically upgrade you to PyTorch 2.1.0.

If you are using CUDA 11.8 and wish to continue using PyTorch 2.0.1, instead run this command:

```shell
pip3 install https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ/releases/download/v0.1.6/autoawq-0.1.6+cu118-cp310-cp310-linux_x86_64.whl
```

If you have problems installing [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) using the pre-built wheels, install it from source instead:

```shell
pip3 uninstall -y autoawq
git clone https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ
cd AutoAWQ
pip3 install .
```

### Transformers example code (requires Transformers 4.35.0 and later)

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, TextStreamer

model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/SauerkrautLM-7B-HerO-AWQ"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name_or_path,
    low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
    device_map="cuda:0"
)

# Using the text streamer to stream output one token at a time
streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer, skip_prompt=True, skip_special_tokens=True)

prompt = "Tell me about AI"
prompt_template=f'''<|im_start|>system
{system_message}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
'''

# Convert prompt to tokens
tokens = tokenizer(
    prompt_template,
    return_tensors='pt'
).input_ids.cuda()

generation_params = {
    "do_sample": True,
    "temperature": 0.7,
    "top_p": 0.95,
    "top_k": 40,
    "max_new_tokens": 512,
    "repetition_penalty": 1.1
}

# Generate streamed output, visible one token at a time
generation_output = model.generate(
    tokens,
    streamer=streamer,
    **generation_params
)

# Generation without a streamer, which will include the prompt in the output
generation_output = model.generate(
    tokens,
    **generation_params
)

# Get the tokens from the output, decode them, print them
token_output = generation_output[0]
text_output = tokenizer.decode(token_output)
print("model.generate output: ", text_output)

# Inference is also possible via Transformers' pipeline
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    **generation_params
)

pipe_output = pipe(prompt_template)[0]['generated_text']
print("pipeline output: ", pipe_output)

# Original model card: VAGO solutions's SauerkrautLM 7B HerO


![SauerkrautLM](https://vago-solutions.de/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/hero.png "SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO")
## VAGO solutions SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO
Introducing **SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO** – the pinnacle of German language model technology! 
Crafted through the **merging** of **[Teknium's OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B](https://huggingface.co/teknium/OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B)** and **[Open-Orca's Mistral-7B-OpenOrca](https://huggingface.co/Open-Orca/Mistral-7B-OpenOrca)** and **uniquely fine-tuned with the Sauerkraut dataset.** 
SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO represents a breakthrough in language modeling, achieving an optimal balance between extensive German data and essential international sources. 
This ensures the model not only excels in understanding the nuances of the German language but also retains its global capabilities.
Harnessing the innovative power of the **gradient SLERP method from MergeKit**, we've achieved a groundbreaking fusion of two of the most best performing 7B models based on the Mistral framework.
This merge  has allowed us to combine the best features of both models, creating an unparalleled synergy. 
Coupled with the German Sauerkraut dataset, which consists of a mix of augmented and translated data, we have successfully taught the English-speaking merged model the intricacies of the German language.
This was achieved *without the typical loss of core competencies often associated with fine-tuning in another language of models previously trained mainly in English.*
Our approach ensures that the model retains its original strengths while acquiring a profound understanding of German, **setting a new benchmark in bilingual language model proficiency.**

## Model Details
**SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO**
- **Model Type:** SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO is an auto-regressive language model based on the transformer architecture 
- **Language(s):** English, German
- **License:** APACHE 2.0
- **Contact:** [Website](https://vago-solutions.de/#Kontakt) [David Golchinfar](mailto:golchinfar@vago-solutions.de)

### Training Dataset:

SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO was trained with mix of German data augmentation and translated data. 
We found, that only a simple translation of training data can lead to unnatural German phrasings. 
Data augmentation techniques were used to grant grammatical, syntactical correctness and a more natural German wording in our training data. 

### Merge Procedure:

SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO was merged on 1 A100 with [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).
The merged model contains [OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B](https://huggingface.co/teknium/OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B) and [Open-Orca/Mistral-7B-OpenOrca](https://huggingface.co/Open-Orca/Mistral-7B-OpenOrca).
We applied the gradient SLERP method.
