# Training Open Instruction-Following Language Models
This repo serves as an open effort on instruction-tuning popular pretrained language models on publicly available datasets. We release this repo and will keep updating it with:
1. Code for finetuning language models with latest techniques and instruction datasets in a unified format.
2. Code for running standard evaluation on a range of benchmarks, targeting for differnt capabilities of these language models.
3. Checkpoints or other useful artifacts that we build in our exploration.
Please see our first paper [How Far Can Camels Go? Exploring the State of Instruction Tuning on Open Resources](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.04751) for more thoughts behind this project and our initial findings. Please see our second paper [Camels in a Changing Climate: Enhancing LM Adaptation with Tulu 2](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.10702) for newer results using Llama-2 models and direct preference optimization. We are still working on more models, so stay tuned for future work!
## News
- [2023-11-27] We released [Camels in a Changing Climate: Enhancing LM Adaptation with Tulu 2](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.10702). Check out our models [here](https://huggingface.co/collections/allenai/tulu-v2-suite-6551b56e743e6349aab45101). We have added a DPO finetuning script for replicating our results.
- [2023-09-26] We switched to use the official [alpaca-eval](https://github.com/tatsu-lab/alpaca_eval) library to run AlpacaFarm evaluation but use regenerated longer reference outputs. This will change our numbers reported in the paper. We will update the paper soon.
- [2023-09-25] Supported using [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/) for our evaluations, which speeds up the evaluation by 10x.
- [2023-09-17] Supported [LoRA](https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.09685) and [QLoRA](https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.14314) finetuning. See [here](#parameter-efficient-finetuning) for more details.
- [2023-08-18] Added support for [ToxiGen](https://github.com/microsoft/TOXIGEN)/[TrutufulQA](https://github.com/sylinrl/TruthfulQA) evaluation. Check our `scripts/eval/` for examples of running them.
- [2023-08-08] Supported several new instruction dataset, including [LIMA](https://huggingface.co/datasets/GAIR/lima) / [WizardLM](https://github.com/nlpxucan/WizardLM) / [Open-Orca](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Open-Orca/OpenOrca). See the [preparation script](./scripts/prepare_train_data.sh) for details. Performance hasn't been evaluated yet.
- [2023-08-06] Supported LLaMa 2 finetuning and FlashAttention-2 by bumping the version of transformers and many other dependencies.
- [2023-06-29] Added [licensing info](#licensing) for our released models.
- [2023-06-09] Released Tülu (a suite of LLaMa models fully-finetuned on a strong mix of datasets) and many other checkpoints on HuggingFace [[Links]](#released-checkpoints).
- [2023-06-09] Initial release of the codebase containing the training and evaluation code for our [arxiv paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.04751).
## Setup
To run training, evaluation, or inference for our finetuned models, you need to install the required packages by running the following command (after installing pytorch):
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
If you just want the dependencies for the weight diff script, use:
```bash
pip install -r weight-diff-requirements.txt
```
If you'd like to experiment with AI2's [OLMo](https://huggingface.co/allenai/OLMo-7B) models, you should also install:
```bash
pip install ai2-olmo
```
If you'd like to run experiments within a Docker environment, you can create one using:
```bash
docker build --build-arg CUDA=11.8.0 --build-arg TARGET=cudnn8-devel --build-arg DIST=ubuntu20.04 . -t
```
If you are internally at AI2, you can use this pre-built beaker image [here](https://beaker.org/im/01HQ1PMA9YCVKXYN6BHP5EYV5E/details).
## Training
### Dataset preparation
We include a collection of representative instruction datasets in our exploration and are adding new ones to our list. We unify them into the same chatting format. To download and prepare these datasets, simply run the following command:
```bash
./scripts/prepare_train_data.sh
```
Please check these datasets for licenses and restrictions around their use!
You can also find the processed [Tulu v1](https://huggingface.co/datasets/allenai/tulu-v1-sft-mixture) and [Tulu v2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/allenai/tulu-v2-sft-mixture) SFT datasets on HuggingFace.
### Model preparation
Generally, most huggingface-compatible causal language models should work fine with our codebase, potentially with some adjusting for different tokenizers etc. Some models may require addtional requests to download. E.g., for LLaMa 1 and 2, please consult [the Hugging Face documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/llama) for requesting access and converting them to a huggingface-compatible format.
### Finetuning
You can use the following command to run instruction tuning (finetuning a pretrained model to follow instructions):
```bash
./scripts/finetune_with_accelerate.sh
```
Make sure to adjust `model_name_or_path`, `tokenizer_name`, `train_file`, and `output_dir` to your models / data / setting. By default, this uses `deepspeed` with `accelerate`.
### Parameter-Efficient Finetuning
We support [LoRA](https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.09685) finetuning, wherein only a small number of parameters are updated, resulting in faster and cheaper training. For even more efficiency, we also support [QLoRA](https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.14314) finetuning, wherein the non-trained (underlying) model parameters are quantised during 4-bit training. This means you can train a 70b Llama model on a single 80GB A100! Please refer to the respective papers for more details.
Please also note you cannot currently run QLoRA with model parallelism - only data-parallel training is supported, so you cannot train a model that does not fit on one GPU. For LoRA, you can use deepspeed + zero-3 to achieve model parallelism (and FSDP is not currently supported).
Please see `./scripts/finetune_lora_with_accelerate.sh` and `./scripts/finetune_qlora_with_accelerate.sh` for example hyperparameters. We found a larger rank (e.g. 256) and higher learning rate (e.g. 2e-4) worked best. Additionally, we found that QLoRA tended to always achieve similar results to LoRA, while LoRA itself sometimes fell behind full-finetuning, especially in long, complex generation tasks. However, for most purposes, LoRA training essentially matches full-finetuning performance. We recommend merging modules learnt with QLoRA into a dequantised model (run our merge script with the `--qlora` flag).
## DPO Finetuning
For an example of how to fully finetune a model with DPO, see `scripts/dpo_train_with_accelerate.sh`. Note you will require at least 8 80GB A100s to be able to train a 7b size model, and will require more compute for anything larger. We have not tested multi-node training with this script, but it should work.
Our script also supports PEFT training with QLoRA. See `scripts/dpo_train_with_qlora.sh` for an example. We have not trained models with this, so it may require additional hyperparameter tuning to achieve reasonable results.
## Released Checkpoints
Our checkpoints can be found:
- [Here](https://huggingface.co/collections/hamishivi/tulu-v1-suite-655138c3743e6349aaa07d7d) for all Tulu v1 models.
- [Here](https://huggingface.co/collections/allenai/tulu-v2-suite-6551b56e743e6349aab45101) for all Tulu v2 models.
### Weight diff script
Our Tulu V1 models were released as weight diffs (due to LLaMa 1 license). We use a slightly modified form of the [Alpaca weight diff script](https://github.com/tatsu-lab/stanford_alpaca/blob/main/weight_diff.py), which runs the same.
To merge a model:
1. Download the relevant LLaMa model and convert it to Hugging Face format (see above).
2. Download our repository and install the right dependencies (see above).
3. Download the model diff you want.
4. Run the command below:
```bash
python scripts/weight_diff.py recover --path_raw ${hf_llama_path} --path_tuned ${output_path} --path_diff ${diff_location}
```
## Evaluation

We are working on including more promising benchmarks into this list. Please stay tuned!
You can use the following script to download all the evaluation data:
```bash
./scripts/prepare_eval_data.sh
```
Evaluation scripts for different datasets are put under `./scripts`. For example, you can use the following command to run the MMLU evaluation script:
```bash
./scripts/eval/mmlu.sh
```
### Human evaluation
We release our human evaluation interface and collected annotations in the `./human_eval` folder. Please see the corresponding [README](./human_eval/README.md) for more details.
