gemma-2-9b-it-SimPO Model Card

SimPO (Simple Preference Optimization) is an offline preference optimization algorithm designed to enhance the training of large language models (LLMs) with preference optimization datasets. SimPO aligns the reward function with the generation likelihood, eliminating the need for a reference model and incorporating a target reward margin to boost performance. Please refer to our preprint and github repo for more details.

How to Get Started with the Model

import torch
from transformers import pipeline

model_id = "princeton-nlp/gemma-2-9b-it-SimPO"

generator = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16},
    device="cuda",
)
outputs = generator([{"role": "user", "content": "What's the difference between llamas and alpacas?"}],
                      do_sample=False,
                      eos_token_id=[generator.tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<end_of_turn>"), generator.tokenizer.eos_token_id],
                      max_new_tokens=200)
print(outputs[0]['generated_text'])
