Zamba

Zamba is a large language model (LLM) trained by Zyphra, and made available under an Apache 2.0 license. Please see the Zyphra Hugging Face repository for model weights.

This model was contributed by pglo.

Model details

Zamba-7B-v1 is a hybrid between state-space models (Specifically Mamba) and transformer, and was trained using next-token prediction. Zamba uses a shared transformer layer after every 6 mamba blocks. It uses the Mistral v0.1 tokenizer. We came to this architecture after a series of ablations at small scales. Zamba-7B-v1 was pre-trained on 1T tokens of text and code data.

Quick start

Presequities

Zamba requires you use transformers version 4.46.0 or higher:

pip install transformers>=4.45.0

In order to run optimized Mamba implementations, you first need to install mamba-ssm and causal-conv1d:

pip install mamba-ssm causal-conv1d>=1.2.0

You also have to have the model on a CUDA device.

You can run the model not using the optimized Mamba kernels, but it is not recommended as it will result in significantly lower latencies. In order to do that, you’ll need to specify use_mamba_kernels=False when loading the model.

Inference

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
import torch

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Zyphra/Zamba-7B-v1")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Zyphra/Zamba-7B-v1", device_map="auto", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)

input_text = "A funny prompt would be "
input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")

outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=100)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))

Parameters

  • vocab_size (int, optional, defaults to 32000) — Vocabulary size of the Zamba model. Defines the number of different tokens that can be represented by the inputs_ids passed when calling ZambaModel
  • tie_word_embeddings (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether the model’s input and output word embeddings should be tied. Note that this is only relevant if the model has a output word embedding layer.

  • num_attention_heads (int, optional, defaults to 16) — Number of attention heads for each attention layer in the Transformer decoder.
  • attention_head_dim (int, optional) — Dimension of the attention head in the Transformer decoder.
  • num_key_value_heads (int, optional, defaults to 16) — This is the number of key_value heads that should be used to implement Grouped Query Attention. If num_key_value_heads=None, the model will use Multi Head Attention (MHA), if `num_key_value_heads=1 the model will use Multi Query Attention (MQA) otherwise GQA is used. When converting a multi-head checkpoint to a GQA checkpoint, each group key and value head should be constructed by meanpooling all the original heads within that group. For more details checkout this paper.

If an integer value, only last num_logits_to_keep logits will be calculated. Default is 1 because only the logits of the last prompt token are needed for generation. For long sequences, the logits for the entire sequence may use a lot of memory so, setting num_logits_to_keep=1 will reduce memory footprint significantly.

  • time_step_min (float, optional, defaults to 0.001) — Minimum time_step used to bound dt_proj_bias.
  • time_step_max (float, optional, defaults to 0.1) — Maximum time_step used to bound dt_proj_bias.
  • time_step_floor (float, optional, defaults to 0.0001) — Minimum clamping value of the dt_proj.bias layer initialization.

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a ZambaModel. It is used to instantiate a Zamba model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the Zamba-v0.1 model.

Zyphra/Zamba-7B-v1

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

ZambaModel

class transformers.ZambaModel

< >

( config: ZambaConfig )

Parameters

  • config (ZambaConfig) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.
  • config — ZambaConfig

The bare Zamba Model outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top. This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters

  • input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length)) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default should you provide it.

    Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

    What are input IDs?

  • attention_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

    • 1 for tokens that are not masked,
    • 0 for tokens that are masked.

    What are attention masks?

    Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

    If past_key_values is used, optionally only the last input_ids have to be input (see past_key_values).

    If you want to change padding behavior, you should read modeling_opt._prepare_decoder_attention_mask and modify to your needs. See diagram 1 in the paper for more information on the default strategy.

    • 1 indicates the head is not masked,
    • 0 indicates the head is masked.
  • position_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range [0, config.n_positions - 1].

    What are position IDs?

  • past_key_values (HybridMambaAttentionDynamicCache, optional, returned when use_cache=True is passed or when config.use_cache=True) — A HybridMambaAttentionDynamicCache object containing pre-computed hidden-states (keys and values in the self-attention blocks and convolution and ssm states in the mamba blocks) that can be used (see past_key_values input) to speed up sequential decoding. Key and value cache tensors have shape (batch_size, num_heads, seq_len, head_dim). Convolution and ssm states tensors have shape (batch_size, d_inner, d_conv) and (batch_size, d_inner, d_state) respectively. See the HybridMambaAttentionDynamicCache class for more details.

    If past_key_values are used, the user can optionally input only the last input_ids (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape (batch_size, 1) instead of all input_ids of shape (batch_size, sequence_length).

  • inputs_embeds (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size), optional) — Optionally, instead of passing input_ids you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert input_ids indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
  • use_cache (bool, optional) — If set to True, past_key_values key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see past_key_values).
  • output_attentions (bool, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See attentions under returned tensors for more detail.
  • output_hidden_states (bool, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See hidden_states under returned tensors for more detail.
  • return_dict (bool, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
  • cache_position (torch.LongTensor of shape (sequence_length), optional) — Indices depicting the position of the input sequence tokens in the sequence. Contrarily to position_ids, this tensor is not affected by padding. It is used to update the cache in the correct position and to infer the complete sequence length.

The ZambaModel forward method, overrides the __call__ special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the Module instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

ZambaForSequenceClassification

class transformers.ZambaForSequenceClassification

< >

( config )

Parameters

  • config (ZambaConfig) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The Zamba Model with a sequence classification head on top (linear layer).

ZambaForSequenceClassification uses the last token in order to do the classification, as other causal models (e.g. GPT-2) do.

Since it does classification on the last token, it requires to know the position of the last token. If a pad_token_id is defined in the configuration, it finds the last token that is not a padding token in each row. If no pad_token_id is defined, it simply takes the last value in each row of the batch. Since it cannot guess the padding tokens when inputs_embeds are passed instead of input_ids, it does the same (take the last value in each row of the batch).

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.
