# SauerkrautLM Mixtral 8X7B - AWQ
- Model creator: [VAGO solutions](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions)
- Original model: [SauerkrautLM Mixtral 8X7B](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions/SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B)

<!-- description start -->
## Description

This repo contains AWQ model files for [VAGO solutions's SauerkrautLM Mixtral 8X7B](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions/SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B).


**MIXTRAL AWQ**

This is a Mixtral AWQ model.

For AutoAWQ inference, please install AutoAWQ 0.1.8 or later.

Support via Transformers is coming soon, via this PR: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/27950 which should be merged to Transformers `main` very soon.

vLLM: version 0.2.6 is confirmed to support Mixtral AWQs.

TGI: I tested version 1.3.3 and it loaded the model fine, but I was not able to get any output back. Further testing/debug is required. (Let me know if you get it working!)

### About AWQ

AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference with equivalent or better quality compared to the most commonly used GPTQ settings.

AWQ models are currently supported on Linux and Windows, with NVidia GPUs only. macOS users: please use GGUF models instead.

AWQ models are supported by (note that not all of these may support Mixtral models yet - see above):

- [Text Generation Webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui) - using Loader: AutoAWQ
- [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm) - version 0.2.2 or later for support for all model types.
- [Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference)
- [Transformers](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers) version 4.35.0 and later, from any code or client that supports Transformers
- [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) - for use from Python code

## Multi-user inference server: vLLM

Documentation on installing and using vLLM [can be found here](https://vllm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

- Please ensure you are using vLLM version 0.2 or later.
- When using vLLM as a server, pass the `--quantization awq` parameter.

For example:

```shell
python3 -m vllm.entrypoints.api_server --model TheBloke/SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B-AWQ --quantization awq --dtype auto
```

- When using vLLM from Python code, again set `quantization=awq`.

For example:

```python
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

prompts = [
    "Tell me about AI",
    "Write a story about llamas",
    "What is 291 - 150?",
    "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?",
]
prompt_template=f'''<|im_start|>system
{system_message}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
'''

prompts = [prompt_template.format(prompt=prompt) for prompt in prompts]

sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)

llm = LLM(model="TheBloke/SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B-AWQ", quantization="awq", dtype="auto")

outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

# Print the outputs.
for output in outputs:
    prompt = output.prompt
    generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
    print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")
```

## Inference from Python code using Transformers

### Install the necessary packages

- Requires: [Transformers](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers) 4.35.0 or later.
- Requires: [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) 0.1.6 or later.

```shell
pip3 install --upgrade "autoawq>=0.1.6" "transformers>=4.35.0"
```

Note that if you are using PyTorch 2.0.1, the above AutoAWQ command will automatically upgrade you to PyTorch 2.1.0.

If you are using CUDA 11.8 and wish to continue using PyTorch 2.0.1, instead run this command:

```shell
pip3 install https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ/releases/download/v0.1.6/autoawq-0.1.6+cu118-cp310-cp310-linux_x86_64.whl
```

If you have problems installing [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) using the pre-built wheels, install it from source instead:

```shell
pip3 uninstall -y autoawq
git clone https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ
cd AutoAWQ
pip3 install .
```

### Transformers example code (requires Transformers 4.35.0 and later)

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

model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B-AWQ"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name_or_path,
    low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
    device_map="cuda:0"
)

# Using the text streamer to stream output one token at a time
streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer, skip_prompt=True, skip_special_tokens=True)

prompt = "Tell me about AI"
prompt_template=f'''<|im_start|>system
{system_message}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
'''

# Convert prompt to tokens
tokens = tokenizer(
    prompt_template,
    return_tensors='pt'
).input_ids.cuda()

generation_params = {
    "do_sample": True,
    "temperature": 0.7,
    "top_p": 0.95,
    "top_k": 40,
    "max_new_tokens": 512,
    "repetition_penalty": 1.1
}

# Generate streamed output, visible one token at a time
generation_output = model.generate(
    tokens,
    streamer=streamer,
    **generation_params
)

# Generation without a streamer, which will include the prompt in the output
generation_output = model.generate(
    tokens,
    **generation_params
)

# Get the tokens from the output, decode them, print them
token_output = generation_output[0]
text_output = tokenizer.decode(token_output)
print("model.generate output: ", text_output)

# Inference is also possible via Transformers' pipeline
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    **generation_params
)

pipe_output = pipe(prompt_template)[0]['generated_text']
print("pipeline output: ", pipe_output)

## Model Details
**SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B**
- **Model Type:** SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B is a Mixture of Experts (MoE) Model based on [mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1) 
- **Language(s):** English, German, French, Italian, Spanish
- **License:** APACHE 2.0
- **Contact:** [Website](https://vago-solutions.de/#Kontakt) [David Golchinfar](mailto:golchinfar@vago-solutions.de)

### Training Dataset:

SauerkrautLM-Mixtral-8x7B was trained with mix of German data augmentation and translated data. 
**SFT** with the dataset[OpenOrca/Slim-Orca](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Open-Orca/SlimOrca) and aligned through **DPO** with our **new German SauerkrautLM-DPO dataset** based on parts of the SFT SauerkrautLM dataset 
as chosen answers and [Sauerkraut-7b-HerO](https://huggingface.co/VAGOsolutions/SauerkrautLM-7b-HerO) as rejected answers. Added with additional **translated Parts of the [HuggingFaceH4/ultrafeedback_binarized](https://huggingface.co/datasets/HuggingFaceH4/ultrafeedback_binarized)** and **[argilla/distilabel-math-preference-dpo](https://huggingface.co/datasets/argilla/distilabel-math-preference-dpo).**  
We found, that only a simple translation of training data can lead to unnatural German phrasings. 
Data augmentation techniques were used to grant grammatical, syntactical correctness and a more natural German wording in our training data. 

### Data Contamination Test Results

Some models on the HuggingFace leaderboard had problems with wrong data getting mixed in.
We checked our SauerkrautLM-DPO dataset with a special test [1] on a smaller model for this problem. 
The HuggingFace team used the same methods [2, 3].

Our results, with `result < 0.1, %:` being well below 0.9, indicate that our dataset is free from contamination.

*The data contamination test results of HellaSwag and Winograde will be added once [1] supports them.*

| Dataset                        | ARC   | MMLU | TruthfulQA | GSM8K |
