haoranxu / ALMA-7B-R

ALMA-R builds upon ALMA models , with further LoRA fine-tuning with our proposed Contrastive Preference Optimization (CPO) as opposed to the Supervised Fine-tuning used in ALMA. CPO fine-tuning requires our triplet preference data for preference learning. ALMA-R now can matches or even exceeds GPT-4 or WMT winners!

Download ALMA(-R) Models and Dataset 🚀

We release six translation models presented in the paper:

• ALMA-7B
• ALMA-7B-LoRA
• ALMA-7B-R (NEW!) : Further LoRA fine-tuning upon ALMA-7B-LoRA with contrastive preference optimization.
• ALMA-13B
• ALMA-13B-LoRA
• ALMA-13B-R (NEW!) : Further LoRA fine-tuning upon ALMA-13B-LoRA with contrastive preference optimization (BEST MODEL!).

Model checkpoints are released at huggingface:

Note that ALMA-7B-Pretrain and ALMA-13B-Pretrain are NOT translation models. They only experience stage 1 monolingual fine-tuning (20B tokens for the 7B model and 12B tokens for the 13B model), and should be utilized in conjunction with their LoRA models.

Datasets used by ALMA and ALMA-R are also released at huggingface now (NEW!)

A quick start to use our best system (ALMA-13B-R) for translation. An example of translating "我爱机器翻译。" into English:

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer

# Load base model and LoRA weights
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("haoranxu/ALMA-13B-R", torch_dtype=torch.float16, device_map="auto")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("haoranxu/ALMA-13B-R", padding_side='left')

# Add the source sentence into the prompt template
prompt="Translate this from Chinese to English:\nChinese: 我爱机器翻译。\nEnglish:"
input_ids = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt", padding=True, max_length=40, truncation=True).input_ids.cuda()

# Translation
with torch.no_grad():
    generated_ids = model.generate(input_ids=input_ids, num_beams=5, max_new_tokens=20, do_sample=True, temperature=0.6, top_p=0.9)
outputs = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
print(outputs)
