# AquilaChat-7B

## 简介/Overview
Aquila语言大模型在技术上继承了GPT-3、LLaMA等的架构设计优点，替换了一批更高效的底层算子实现、重新设计实现了中英双语的tokenizer，升级了BMTrain并行训练方法，在Aquila的训练过程中实现了比Magtron+DeepSpeed zero-2将近８倍的训练效率。Aquila语言大模型是在中英文高质量语料基础上从０开始训练的，通过数据质量的控制、多种训练的优化方法，实现在更小的数据集、更短的训练时间，获得比其它开源模型更优的性能。也是首个支持中英双语知识、支持商用许可协议、符合国内数据合规需要的大规模开源语言模型。

The Aquila language model inherits the architectural design advantages of GPT-3 and LLaMA, replacing a batch of more efficient underlying operator implementations and redesigning the tokenizer for Chinese-English bilingual support. It upgrades the BMTrain parallel training method, achieving nearly 8 times the training efficiency of Magtron+DeepSpeed ZeRO-2 in the training process of Aquila. The Aquila language model is trained from scratch on high-quality Chinese and English corpora. Through data quality control and various training optimization methods, it achieves better performance than other open-source models with smaller datasets and shorter training times. It is also the first large-scale open-source language model that supports Chinese-English-Knowledge, commercial licensing, and complies with domestic data regulations.
  
AquilaChat-7B是在Aquila-7B模型的基础上，进行SFT微调后的支持中英双语的对话式语言模型。AquilaChat-7B模型由智源研究院研发。

AquilaChat-7B is a conversational language model that supports Chinese-English dialogue. It is based on the Aquila-7B model and fine-tuned using SFT. AquilaChat-7B model was developed by Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence. 


AquilaChat模型主要为了验证基础模型能力，您可以根据自己需要对模型进行使用，修改和商业化，但必须遵守所有国家的法律法规，并且对任何第三方使用者提供Aquila系列模型的来源以及Aquila系列模型协议的副本。

The AquilaChat model was primarily developed to verify the capabilities of the foundational model. You can use, modify, and commercialize the model according to your needs, but you must comply with all applicable laws and regulations in your country. Additionally, you must provide the source of the Aquila series models and a copy of the Aquila series model lincense to any third-party users.

我们使用了一系列更高效的底层算子来辅助模型训练，其中包括参考[flash-attention](https://github.com/HazyResearch/flash-attention)的方法并替换了一些中间计算，同时还使用了RMSNorm。在此基础上，我们应用了[BMtrain](https://github.com/OpenBMB/BMTrain)技术进行轻量化的并行训练，该技术采用了数据并行、ZeRO（零冗余优化器）、优化器卸载、检查点和操作融合、通信-计算重叠等方法来优化模型训练过程。

Aquila模型所采用的tokenizer是由我们从头开始训练的，支持中英双语。与其他tokenizer的参数对比见下表:

我们在处理英文、中文以及代码数据时，采用了不同的分词器对一万个样本进行了抽取。随后，我们统计了每个样本的token数量，并将其记录在表格中。


We used a series of more efficient low-level operators to assist with model training, including methods referenced from [flash-attention](https://github.com/HazyResearch/flash-attention) and replacing some intermediate calculations, as well as using RMSNorm. Building upon this foundation, we applied the [BMtrain](https://github.com/OpenBMB/BMTrain) for lightweight parallel training, which utilizes methods such as data parallelism, ZeRO (zero redundancy optimizer), optimizer offloading, checkpoint and operation fusion, and communication-computation overlap to optimize the model training process.

The tokenizer used in the Aquila model was trained from scratch by us and supports both English and Chinese. The parameters of this tokenizer are compared to those of other tokenizers in the table below:

We used different tokenizers to extract ten thousand data samples from English, Chinese, and code data respectively, obtained the count of tokens for each sample, and also included it in the table.

| 模型/Model | 词表大小/Vocab size | 说明/Note |英文平均tokens量/Avg tokens(English)| 中文平均tokens量/Avg tokens(Chinesse)|代码平均tokens量/Avg tokens(code)  |
|  -----  | ----  | -----  | ----  | -----  | ----  | 
| GPT2 | 50527 | bpe|1717 | 1764|2323 |
| LLaMA | 32000 | sp(bpe)|1805| 1257|1970 |
| Aquila | 100000 | bpe|1575 | 477|1679 |

## 训练数据集/Training data 

我们采用了一系列高质量中英文数据集来训练和微调我们的对话语言模型，并且在不断更新迭代

We used a series of high-quality Chinese and English datasets to train and fine-tune our conversational language model, and continuously updated it through iterations.

### 2. 可监督微调/Supervised Fine-tuning(SFT)
#### Step 1: 配置模型/ Setup Checkpoints
在`./checkpoints_in`里新建`aquila-7b`目录。将微调后的checkpoint，以及原始`aquila-7b`模型里的其余文件，包括`config.json`, `mergex.txt`, `vocab.json`, `special_tokens_map.json`放进去

Create a new directory named `aquila-7b` inside `./checkpoints_in`. Place the fine-tuned checkpoint and all other files from the original `aquila-7b` model, including `config.json`, `mergex.txt`, `vocab.json`, and `special_tokens_map.json`, into this directory.

#### Step 2: 修改参数/ Modify Parameters
* `cd /examples/aquila`
* 配置`hostfile`文件, 参考[这里](../../../doc_zh/TUTORIAL_8_ENVIRONMENT_SETUP.md#a配置hostfilehostfile-中的v100-1-与sshconfig-对应) ; Configure the `hostfile` file, refer to [here](../../../docs/TUTORIAL_8_ENVIRONMENT_SETUP.md)
* 配置`bmtrain_mgpu.sh`文件, 将`SCRIPT_FILE`改成`aquila_sft.py`; configure the `bmtrain_mgpu.sh` file, change `SCRIPT_FILE` to `aquila_sft.py`
* (可选) 在`Aquila-sft.yaml`文件里更改参数 ; (optional) change parameters in `Aquila-sft.yaml`
