LoftQ/Meta-Llama-3-8B-4bit-64rank

LoftQ Initialization

| Paper | Code | PEFT Example |

LoftQ (LoRA-fine-tuning-aware Quantization) provides a quantized backbone Q and LoRA adapters A and B, given a full-precision pre-trained weight W.

This model, Meta-Llama-3-8B-4bit-64rank, is obtained from LLAMA-3-8B. The backbone is under LoftQ/Meta-Llama-3-8B-4bit-64rank and LoRA adapters are under the subfolder='loftq_init'.

Model Info

Backbone

• Size: ~ 6 GiB
• Loaded format: bitsandbytes nf4
• Size loaded on GPU: ~6 GiB

LoRA adapters

• rank: 64
• lora_alpha: 16
• target_modules: ["down_proj", "up_proj", "q_proj", "k_proj", "v_proj", "o_proj", "gate_proj"]

Usage

Training

Here's an example of loading this model and preparing for the LoRA fine-tuning.

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, BitsAndBytesConfig
from peft import PeftModel

MODEL_ID = "LoftQ/Meta-Llama-3-8B-4bit-64rank"

base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(MODEL_ID)
peft_model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(
    base_model,
    MODEL_ID,
    subfolder="loftq_init",
    is_trainable=True,
)

# Do training with peft_model ...

Experiment Results

We have conducted experiments on supervised fine-tuning of GSM8K.

Model	Bits	Rank	LoRA Initial	GSM8K
LLAMA-3-8B	16	-	Full model fine-tuning	70.4±0.7
LLAMA-3-8B	16	64	Gaussian + 0 (LoRA)	69.3±1.5
LLAMA-3-8B	4	64	Gaussian + 0 (QLoRA)	67.4±1.0
LLAMA-3-8B	4	64	LoftQ	68.0±0.6

Inference

Here is an example code for inference after the model has been fine-tuned on GSM8K.

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, BitsAndBytesConfig
from peft import PeftModel

MODEL_ID = "LoftQ/Meta-Llama-3-8B-4bit-64rank"

base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    MODEL_ID, 
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,  # you may change it with different models
    quantization_config=BitsAndBytesConfig(
        load_in_4bit=True,
        bnb_4bit_compute_dtype=torch.bfloat16,  # bfloat16 is recommended
        bnb_4bit_use_double_quant=False,
        bnb_4bit_quant_type='nf4',
    ),
)
peft_model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(
    base_model,
    MODEL_ID,
    subfolder="gsm8k",
    is_trainable=False,
)

# Do inference with peft_model ...
