LLaMA Board: A One-stop Web UI for Getting Started with LLaMA Factory

Preview LLaMA Board at 🤗 Spaces or ModelScope.

Launch LLaMA Board via CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python src/train_web.py. (multiple GPUs are not supported yet in this mode)

Here is an example of altering the self-cognition of an instruction-tuned language model within 10 minutes on a single GPU.

Benchmark

Compared to ChatGLM's P-Tuning, LLaMA-Factory's LoRA tuning offers up to 3.7 times faster training speed with a better Rouge score on the advertising text generation task. By leveraging 4-bit quantization technique, LLaMA-Factory's QLoRA further improves the efficiency regarding the GPU memory.

Definitions

• Training Speed: the number of training samples processed per second during the training. (bs=4, cutoff_len=1024)
• Rouge Score: Rouge-2 score on the development set of the advertising text generation task. (bs=4, cutoff_len=1024)
• GPU Memory: Peak GPU memory usage in 4-bit quantized training. (bs=1, cutoff_len=1024)
• We adopt pre_seq_len=128 for ChatGLM's P-Tuning and lora_rank=32 for LLaMA-Factory's LoRA tuning.

Changelog

[24/02/15] We supported block expansion proposed by LLaMA Pro. See tests/llama_pro.py for usage.

[24/02/05] Qwen1.5 (Qwen2 beta version) series models are supported in LLaMA-Factory. Check this blog post for details.

[24/01/18] We supported agent tuning for most models, equipping model with tool using abilities by fine-tuning with --dataset glaive_toolcall.

Getting Started

Data Preparation (optional)

Please refer to data/README.md for checking the details about the format of dataset files. You can either use a single .json file or a dataset loading script with multiple files to create a custom dataset.

Note

Please update data/dataset_info.json to use your custom dataset. About the format of this file, please refer to data/README.md.

Dependence Installation (optional)

git clone https://github.com/hiyouga/LLaMA-Factory.git
conda create -n llama_factory python=3.10
conda activate llama_factory
cd LLaMA-Factory
pip install -r requirements.txt

If you want to enable the quantized LoRA (QLoRA) on the Windows platform, you will be required to install a pre-built version of bitsandbytes library, which supports CUDA 11.1 to 12.2.

pip install https://github.com/jllllll/bitsandbytes-windows-webui/releases/download/wheels/bitsandbytes-0.40.0-py3-none-win_amd64.whl

To enable FlashAttention-2 on the Windows platform, you need to install the precompiled flash-attn library, which supports CUDA 12.1 to 12.2. Please download the corresponding version from flash-attention based on your requirements.

Use ModelScope Hub (optional)

If you have trouble with downloading models and datasets from Hugging Face, you can use LLaMA-Factory together with ModelScope in the following manner.

export USE_MODELSCOPE_HUB=1 # `set USE_MODELSCOPE_HUB=1` for Windows

Then you can train the corresponding model by specifying a model ID of the ModelScope Hub. (find a full list of model IDs at ModelScope Hub)

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python src/train_bash.py \
    --model_name_or_path modelscope/Llama-2-7b-ms \
    ... # arguments (same as above)

LLaMA Board also supports using the models and datasets on the ModelScope Hub.
