Saiga-Custom Project

Welcome to the saiga-custom project, a comprehensive collection of Jupyter notebooks specifically designed for training large language models on datasets from the Saiga (rulm) project. This repository is an essential resource for anyone looking to leverage the advanced capabilities of the Saiga datasets for language model training.

Our notebooks are crafted to provide intuitive, step-by-step guidance for training state-of-the-art LoRA adapters for different language models, ensuring that even those new to the field can successfully navigate the complexities of language model training.

Repository Contents

Jupyter Notebooks

• yarn_mistral_7b_128k.ipynb - this notebook contains a script for training the NousResearch/Yarn-Mistral-7b-128k model. This model, an advancement over the base Mistral 7B v0.1, incorporates the Flash Attention 2 algorithm, enabling it to handle a context size of up to 128k tokens. The notebook provides a detailed and user-friendly guide for training the LoRA adapter specifically for the Yarn-Mistral-7b-128k model. It meticulously outlines the necessary steps and parameters required to optimize performance and achieve the best possible results with this enhanced model.
• rugpt35_13b.ipynb - This notebook focuses on training the ruGPT-3.5-13B model, a powerful language model specifically tailored for understanding and generating Russian text. It guides users through creating a LoRA layer for model adaptation and subsequently performing a conversion to the GGML format for optimized deployment.
• llama2_7b_yakovlev.ipynb - This notebook provides a detailed guide for training a Russian language model based on the meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf model. The model is trained to imitate a historical figure named Ivan Yakovlevich Yakovlev.
• pavelgpt_7b_128k.ipynb - This notebook provides a detailed guide for training a Russian language model based on the NousResearch/Yarn-Mistral-7b-128k model. It is able to generate text in Russian, answer questions, solve simple logical puzzles and simple math calculations. It is optimized for INSTRUCT mode and it works better if you give it system prompt and only one instruction (without history at all).

Scripts

• test_lora.py - this script features a console-based chat interface and a Conversation class that maintains a message history. It is specifically adapted to function seamlessly with the Mistral model. The script demonstrates a practical application of the model, showcasing its conversational abilities and providing a template for further custom implementations.
• test_gguf.py - this script features a console-based chat interface and a Conversation class that maintains a message history. If is adapted to work with the GGML format of models.
