AshhLimaRP Mistral 7B - GGUF

Model creator: Suikamelon
Original model: AshhLimaRP Mistral 7B

Description

This repo contains GGUF format model files for Suikamelon's AshhLimaRP Mistral 7B.

These files were quantised using hardware kindly provided by Massed Compute.

About GGUF

GGUF is a new format introduced by the llama.cpp team on August 21st 2023. It is a replacement for GGML, which is no longer supported by llama.cpp.

Here is an incomplate list of clients and libraries that are known to support GGUF:

llama.cpp. The source project for GGUF. Offers a CLI and a server option.
text-generation-webui, the most widely used web UI, with many features and powerful extensions. Supports GPU acceleration.
KoboldCpp, a fully featured web UI, with GPU accel across all platforms and GPU architectures. Especially good for story telling.
LM Studio, an easy-to-use and powerful local GUI for Windows and macOS (Silicon), with GPU acceleration.
LoLLMS Web UI, a great web UI with many interesting and unique features, including a full model library for easy model selection.
Faraday.dev, an attractive and easy to use character-based chat GUI for Windows and macOS (both Silicon and Intel), with GPU acceleration.
ctransformers, a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible AI server.
llama-cpp-python, a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible API server.
candle, a Rust ML framework with a focus on performance, including GPU support, and ease of use.

These quantised GGUFv2 files are compatible with llama.cpp from August 27th onwards, as of commit d0cee0d

They are also compatible with many third party UIs and libraries - please see the list at the top of this README.

Explanation of quantisation methods

Click to see details

The new methods available are:

GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw

How to download GGUF files

Note for manual downloaders: You almost never want to clone the entire repo! Multiple different quantisation formats are provided, and most users only want to pick and download a single file.

The following clients/libraries will automatically download models for you, providing a list of available models to choose from:

LM Studio
LoLLMS Web UI
Faraday.dev

In `text-generation-webui`

Under Download Model, you can enter the model repo: TheBloke/AshhLimaRP-Mistral-7B-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: ashhlimarp-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf.

Then click Download.

On the command line, including multiple files at once

I recommend using the huggingface-hub Python library:

pip3 install huggingface-hub

Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this:

huggingface-cli download TheBloke/AshhLimaRP-Mistral-7B-GGUF ashhlimarp-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False

More advanced huggingface-cli download usage

You can also download multiple files at once with a pattern:

huggingface-cli download TheBloke/AshhLimaRP-Mistral-7B-GGUF --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False --include='*Q4_K*gguf'

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:

HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/AshhLimaRP-Mistral-7B-GGUF ashhlimarp-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --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.

Example `llama.cpp` command

Make sure you are using llama.cpp from commit d0cee0d or later.

./main -ngl 32 -m ashhlimarp-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "### Instruction:\nCharacter's Persona: bot character description\n\nUser's persona: user character description\n  \nScenario: what happens in the story\n\nPlay the role of Character. You must engage in a roleplaying chat with User below this line. Do not write dialogues and narration for User. Character should respond with messages of medium length.\n\n### Input:\nUser: {prompt}\n\n### Response:\nCharacter:"

Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.

Change -c 2048 to the desired sequence length. For extended sequence models - eg 8K, 16K, 32K - the necessary RoPE scaling parameters are read from the GGUF file and set by llama.cpp automatically.

If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins

For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to the llama.cpp documentation

How to run in `text-generation-webui`

Further instructions here: text-generation-webui/docs/llama.cpp.md.

How to run from Python code

You can use GGUF models from Python using the llama-cpp-python or ctransformers libraries.

How to load this model in Python code, using ctransformers

First install the package

Run one of the following commands, according to your system:

# Base ctransformers with no GPU acceleration
pip install ctransformers
# Or with CUDA GPU acceleration
pip install ctransformers[cuda]
# Or with AMD ROCm GPU acceleration (Linux only)
CT_HIPBLAS=1 pip install ctransformers --no-binary ctransformers
# Or with Metal GPU acceleration for macOS systems only
CT_METAL=1 pip install ctransformers --no-binary ctransformers

Simple ctransformers example code

from ctransformers import AutoModelForCausalLM

# Set gpu_layers to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Set to 0 if no GPU acceleration is available on your system.
llm = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("TheBloke/AshhLimaRP-Mistral-7B-GGUF", model_file="ashhlimarp-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf", model_type="mistral", gpu_layers=50)

print(llm("AI is going to"))

Original model card: Suikamelon's AshhLimaRP Mistral 7B

AshhLimaRP-Mistral-7B (Alpaca, v1)

This is a version of LimaRP with 2000 training samples up to about 9k tokens length finetuned on Ashhwriter-Mistral-7B.

LimaRP is a longform-oriented, novel-style roleplaying chat model intended to replicate the experience of 1-on-1 roleplay on Internet forums. Short-form, IRC/Discord-style RP (aka "Markdown format") is not supported. The model does not include instruction tuning, only manually picked and slightly edited RP conversations with persona and scenario data.

Ashhwriter, the base, is a model entirely finetuned on human-written lewd stories.

Available versions

Float16 HF weights
LoRA Adapter (adapter_config.json and adapter_model.bin)
4bit AWQ
Q4_K_M GGUF
Q6_K GGUF

Prompt format

Extended Alpaca format, with ### Instruction:, ### Input: immediately preceding user inputs and ### Response: immediately preceding model outputs. While Alpaca wasn't originally intended for multi-turn responses, in practice this is not a problem; the format follows a pattern already used by other models.

### Instruction:
Character's Persona: {bot character description}

User's Persona: {user character description}

Scenario: {what happens in the story}

Play the role of Character. You must engage in a roleplaying chat with User below this line. Do not write dialogues and narration for User.

### Input:
User: {utterance}

### Response:
Character: {utterance}

### Input
User: {utterance}

### Response:
Character: {utterance}

(etc.)

You should:

Replace all text in curly braces (curly braces included) with your own text.
Replace User and Character with appropriate names.

Message length control

Inspired by the previously named "Roleplay" preset in SillyTavern, with this version of LimaRP it is possible to append a length modifier to the response instruction sequence, like this:

### Input
User: {utterance}

### Response: (length = medium)
Character: {utterance}

This has an immediately noticeable effect on bot responses. The lengths using during training are: micro, tiny, short, medium, long, massive, huge, enormous, humongous, unlimited. The recommended starting length is medium. Keep in mind that the AI can ramble or impersonate the user with very long messages.

The length control effect is reproducible, but the messages will not necessarily follow lengths very precisely, rather follow certain ranges on average, as seen in this table with data from tests made with one reply at the beginning of the conversation:

Response length control appears to work well also deep into the conversation. By omitting the modifier, the model will choose the most appropriate response length (although it might not necessarily be what the user desires).

Suggested settings

You can follow these instruction format settings in SillyTavern. Replace medium with your desired response length:

Text generation settings

These settings could be a good general starting point:

TFS = 0.90
Temperature = 0.70
Repetition penalty = ~1.11
Repetition penalty range = ~2048
top-k = 0 (disabled)
top-p = 1 (disabled)

Training procedure

Axolotl was used for training on 2x NVidia A40 GPUs.

The A40 GPUs have been graciously provided by Arc Compute.

Training hyperparameters

A lower learning rate than usual was employed. Due to an unforeseen issue the training was cut short and as a result 3 epochs were trained instead of the planned 4. Using 2 GPUs, the effective global batch size would have been 16.

Training was continued from the most recent LoRA adapter from Ashhwriter, using the same LoRA R and LoRA alpha.

lora_model_dir: /home/anon/bin/axolotl/OUT_mistral-stories/checkpoint-6000/
learning_rate: 0.00005
lr_scheduler: cosine
noisy_embedding_alpha: 3.5
num_epochs: 4

lora_dropout: 0.05
lora_target_linear: True

tf32: True
load_in_8bit: True

micro_batch_size: 2
optimizer: adamw_bnb_8bit
warmup_steps: 10
optimizer: adamw_torch
flash_attention: true
sample_packing: true
pad_to_sequence_len: true

Loss graphs

Values are higher than typical because the training is performed on the entire sample, similar to unsupervised finetuning.
