FalconMamba

Overview

The FalconMamba model was proposed by TII UAE (Technology Innovation Institute) in their release.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

We present FalconMamba, a new base large language model based on the novel Mamba architecture. FalconMamba is trained on 5.8 trillion tokens with carefully selected data mixtures. As a pure Mamba-based model, FalconMamba surpasses leading open-weight models based on Transformers, such as Mistral 7B, Llama3 8B, and Falcon2 11B. It is on par with Gemma 7B and outperforms models with different architecture designs, such as RecurrentGemma 9B. Currently, FalconMamba is the best-performing Mamba model in the literature at this scale, surpassing both existing Mamba and hybrid Mamba-Transformer models. Due to its architecture, FalconMamba is significantly faster at inference and requires substantially less memory for long sequence generation. Despite recent studies suggesting that hybrid Mamba-Transformer models outperform pure architecture designs, we argue and demonstrate that the pure Mamba design can achieve similar, even superior results compared to the hybrid design. We make the weights of our implementation of FalconMamba publicly available under a permissive license.

Tips:

The model has been trained on approximtely 6T tokens consisting a mixture of many data sources such as RefineWeb, Cosmopedia and Math data.

For more details about the training procedure and the architecture, have a look at the technical paper of FalconMamba (coming soon).

Usage

Below we demonstrate how to use the model:

from transformers import FalconMambaForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b")
model = FalconMambaForCausalLM.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b")

input_ids = tokenizer("Hey how are you doing?", return_tensors= "pt")["input_ids"]

out = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=10)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(out))

The architecture is also compatible with torch.compile for faster generation:

from transformers import FalconMambaForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b")
model = FalconMambaForCausalLM.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16).to(0)
model = torch.compile(model)

input_ids = tokenizer("Hey how are you doing?", return_tensors= "pt")["input_ids"]

out = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=10)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(out))

If you have access to a GPU that is compatible with bitsandbytes, you can also quantize the model in 4-bit precision:

from transformers import FalconMambaForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, BitsAndBytesConfig
import torch

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b")
quantization_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(load_in_4bit=True)
model = FalconMambaForCausalLM.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b", quantization_config=quantization_config)

input_ids = tokenizer("Hey how are you doing?", return_tensors= "pt")["input_ids"]

out = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=10)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(out))

You can also play with the instruction fine-tuned model:

from transformers import FalconMambaForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b-instruct")
model = FalconMambaForCausalLM.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b-instruct")

# We use the tokenizer's chat template to format each message - see https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/chat_templating
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "How many helicopters can a human eat in one sitting?"},
]
input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True).input_ids

outputs = model.generate(input_ids)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a FalconMambaModel. It is used to instantiate a FALCON_MAMBA 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 FALCON_MAMBA tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b architecture.

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

Example:

>>> from transformers import FalconMambaConfig, FalconMambaModel

>>> # Initializing a FalconMamba configuration
>>> configuration = FalconMambaConfig()

>>> # Initializing a model (with random weights) from the configuration
>>> model = FalconMambaModel(configuration)

>>> # Accessing the model configuration
>>> configuration = model.config

FalconMambaModel

class transformers.FalconMambaModel

< >

( config )

Parameters

  • config (FalconMambaConfig) — 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 bare FALCONMAMBA Model transformer 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, input_ids_length)) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

    If cache_params.seqlen_offset>0, only input_ids that do not have their past calculated should be passed as input_ids.

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

    What are input IDs?

  • 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.
  • cache_params (MambaCache, optional) — If passed along, the model uses the previous state in all the blocks (which will give the output for the input_ids provided as if the model add state_input_ids + input_ids as context).
  • use_cache (bool, optional) — If set to True, the cache_params is returned and can be used to quickly generate the next logits.
  • 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.

Returns

transformers.models.falcon_mamba.modeling_falcon_mamba.FalconMambaOutput or tuple(torch.FloatTensor)

A transformers.models.falcon_mamba.modeling_falcon_mamba.FalconMambaOutput or a tuple of torch.FloatTensor (if return_dict=False is passed or when config.return_dict=False) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (FalconMambaConfig) and inputs.

  • last_hidden_state (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)) — Sequence of hidden-states at the output of the last layer of the model.

  • cache_params (MambaCache) — The state of the model at the last time step. Can be used in a forward method with the next input_ids to avoid providing the old input_ids.

    Includes both the State space model state matrices after the selective scan, and the Convolutional states

  • hidden_states (tuple(torch.FloatTensor), optional, returned when output_hidden_states=True is passed or when config.output_hidden_states=True) — Tuple of torch.FloatTensor (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size).

    Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

The FalconMambaModel 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.

Example:

>>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, FalconMambaModel
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b")
>>> model = FalconMambaModel.from_pretrained("tiiuae/falcon-mamba-7b")

>>> inputs = tokenizer("Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
>>> outputs = model(**inputs)

>>> last_hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state
