# Model Card for Zamba2-1.2B

Zamba2-1.2B-instruct is obtained from Zamba2-1.2B by fine-tuning on instruction-following and chat datasets. Specifically:

1. SFT of the base [Zamba2-1.2B](https://huggingface.co/Zyphra/Zamba2-1.2B) model on [ultrachat_200k](HuggingFaceH4/ultrachat_200k) and [Infinity-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/datasets/BAAI/Infinity-Instruct)
2. DPO of the SFT checkpoint on [ultrafeedback_binarized](https://huggingface.co/datasets/HuggingFaceH4/ultrafeedback_binarized), [orca_dpo_pairs](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Intel/orca_dpo_pairs), and [OpenHermesPreferences](https://huggingface.co/datasets/argilla/OpenHermesPreferences)

Zamba2-1.2B-Instruct is a hybrid model composed of state-space ([Mamba2](https://github.com/state-spaces/mamba)) and transformer blocks.

## Quick start

### Prerequisites

To download Zamba2-1.2B, clone Zyphra's fork of transformers:
1. `git clone https://github.com/Zyphra/transformers_zamba2.git`
2. `cd transformers_zamba2`
3. Install the repository: `pip install -e .`
4. `pip install accelerate`


You can run the model without using the optimized Mamba2 kernels, but it is **not** recommended as it will result in significantly higher latency and memory usage. 

To run on CPU, please specify `use_mamba_kernels=False` when loading the model using ``AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained``.


### Inference

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

# Instantiate model and tokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Zyphra/Zamba2-1.2B-instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Zyphra/Zamba2-1.2B-instruct", device_map="cuda", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)

# Format the input as a chat template
prompt = "What factors contributed to the fall of the Roman Empire?"
sample = [{'role': 'user', 'content': prompt}]
chat_sample = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(sample, tokenize=False)

# Tokenize input and generate output
input_ids = tokenizer(chat_sample, return_tensors='pt', add_special_tokens=False).to("cuda")
outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=150, return_dict_in_generate=False, output_scores=False, use_cache=True, num_beams=1, do_sample=False)
print((tokenizer.decode(outputs[0])))
```

## Performance

Zamba2-1.2B-Instruct achieves leading instruction-following and multi-turn chat performance for a model of its size and matches strong models significantly larger. For instance, Zamba2-1.2B-Instruct outperforms Gemma2-2B-Instruct, a very strong model over 2x its size.

| Model | Size | Aggregate MT-Bench | IFEval |
|:-------------:|:----:|:-------------:|:----:|
| **Zamba2-1.2B-Instruct** | 1.2B | **59.53** | **41.45** |
| Gemma2-2B-Instruct | 2.7B | 51.69 | 42.20 |
| H2O-Danube-1.8B-Chat | 1.6B | 49.78 | 27.95 |
| StableLM-1.6B-Chat | 1.6B | 49.87 | 33.77 |
| SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct | 1.7B | 43.37 | 16.53 |
| Qwen2-1.5B-Instruct | 1.5B | N/A | 34.68 |

Moreover, due to its unique hybrid SSM architecture, Zamba2-1.2B-Instruct achieves extremely low inference latency and rapid generation with a significantly smaller memory footprint than comparable transformer-based models.

## Model Details

Zamba2-1.2B utilizes and extends our original Zamba hybrid SSM-attention architecture. The core Zamba architecture consists of a backbone of Mamba2 layers interleaved with one or more shared attention layers. This attention has shared weights to minimize the parameter cost of the model. We find that concatenating the original model embeddings to the input to this attention block improves performance, likely due to better maintenance of information across depth. The Zamba2 architecture also applies LoRA projection matrices to the shared transformer blocks to gain some additional expressivity in each block and allow each shared block to specialize slightly to its own unique position while keeping the additional parameter overhead small.

Note: this is a temporary HuggingFace implementation of Zamba2-1.2B. It may not yet be fully compatible with all frameworks and tools intended to interface with HuggingFace models.

A standalone Pytorch implementation of Zamba2-1.2B may be found [here](https://github.com/Zyphra/Zamba2).
