## Model Details

This model is an int4 model with group_size 128 of [bigscience/bloom-7b1](https://huggingface.co/bigscience/bloom-7b1)  generated by [intel/auto-round](https://github.com/intel/auto-round). 
Inference of this model is compatible with AutoGPTQ's Kernel.






### Reproduce the model

Here is the sample command to reproduce the model

```bash
git clone https://github.com/intel/auto-round
cd auto-round/examples/language-modeling
pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 main.py \
--model_name  bigscience/bloom-7b1 \
--device 0 \
--group_size 128 \
--bits 4 \
--iters 1000 \
--nsamples 512 \
--deployment_device 'gpu' \
--output_dir "./tmp_autoround" \

```






### Evaluate the model 

Install [lm-eval-harness 0.4.2](https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness.git) from source.

```bash
lm_eval --model hf --model_args pretrained="Intel/bloom-7b1-int4-inc",autogptq=True,gptq_use_triton=True --device cuda:0 --tasks lambada_openai,hellaswag,piqa,winogrande,truthfulqa_mc1,openbookqa,boolq,arc_easy,arc_challenge,mmlu --batch_size 32
```
