Contents

Install

Method 1: With pip

# Install FastChat
pip3 install fschat

# Install a specific commit of huggingface/transformers
# Our released weights do not work with commits after this due to some upstream changes in the tokenizer.
pip3 install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers@c612628045822f909020f7eb6784c79700813eda

Method 2: From source

  1. Clone this repository and navigate to FastChat folder
git clone https://github.com/lm-sys/FastChat.git
cd FastChat
  1. Install Package
pip3 install --upgrade pip  # enable PEP 660 support
pip3 install -e .

Vicuna Weights

We release Vicuna weights as delta weights to comply with the LLaMA model license. You can add our delta to the original LLaMA weights to obtain the Vicuna weights. Instructions:

  1. Get the original LLaMA weights in the huggingface format by following the instructions here.
  2. Use the following scripts to get Vicuna weights by applying our delta. It will automatically download delta weights from our Hugging Face account.

NOTE: Our released weights are only compatible with huggingface/transformers commit: c612628045822f909020f7eb6784c79700813eda. The weights do not work with commits after this due to some upstream changes in the tokenizer. We install the correct version of transformers when fastchat is installed.

Vicuna-13B

This conversion command needs around 60 GB of CPU RAM.

python3 -m fastchat.model.apply_delta \
    --base /path/to/llama-13b \
    --target /output/path/to/vicuna-13b \
    --delta lmsys/vicuna-13b-delta-v0

Vicuna-7B

Coming soon.

Serving

Command Line Interface

Single GPU

The command below requires around 28GB of GPU memory for Vicuna-13B.

python3 -m fastchat.serve.cli --model-name /path/to/vicuna/weights

Multi GPU

If you do not have enough GPU memory, you can use model parallelism to aggregate memory from multiple GPUs on the same machine.

python3 -m fastchat.serve.cli --model-name /path/to/vicuna/weights --num-gpus 2

CPU Only

This runs on the CPU only and does not require GPU. It requires around 60GB of CPU memory for Vicuna-13B.

python3 -m fastchat.serve.cli --model-name /path/to/vicuna/weights --device cpu

Others (Quantization, More Platforms)

Currently, we only provide some basic commands for running the model. We are actively exploring methods to make the model easier to run on more platforms. Contributions and pull requests are welcome.

Web UI

Launch a controller

python3 -m fastchat.serve.controller

Launch a model worker

python3 -m fastchat.serve.model_worker --model-path /path/to/vicuna/weights

Wait until the process finishes loading the model and you see "Uvicorn running on ...".

Send a test message

python3 -m fastchat.serve.test_message --model-name vicuna-13b

Launch a gradio web server.

python3 -m fastchat.serve.gradio_web_server

You can open your browser and chat with a model now.

Evaluation

Our AI-enhanced evaluation pipeline is based on GPT-4. Here are some high-level instructions for using the pipeline:

First, generate answers from different models. Use qa_baseline_gpt35.py for ChatGPT, or specify the model checkpoint and run model_qa.py for Vicuna and other models.

Then, use GPT-4 to generate reviews automatically, which can be done manually if the GPT-4 API is not available to you. Once you have your evaluation data, visualize the results by running generate_webpage_data_from_table.py, which generates data for a static website.

Finally, serve a static website under the webpage directory. You can simply use python3 -m http.server to serve the website locally.

Besides the evaluation workflow, we also document the data format used for evaluation, which is encoded with JSON Lines and includes information on models, prompts, reviewers, questions, answers, and reviews. You can customize the evaluation process or contribute to our project by accessing relevant data.

Check evaluation for detailed instructions.

Fine-tuning

Data

Vicuna is created by fine-tuning a LLaMA base model using approximately 70K user-shared conversations gathered from ShareGPT.com with public APIs. To ensure data quality, we convert the HTML back to markdown and filter out some inappropriate or low-quality samples. Additionally, we divide lengthy conversations into smaller segments that fit the model's maximum context length. For detailed instructions to clean the ShareGPT data, check out here.

Due to some concerns, we may not release the data at the moment. If you would like to try the fine-tuning code, you can try to run it with our preprocessed alpaca dataset (originally from here).

Code and Hyperparameters

We fine-tune the model using the code from Stanford Alpaca, with some modifications to support gradient checkpointing and Flash Attention. We use similar hyperparameters as the Stanford Alpaca.

Hyperparameter Global Batch Size Learning rate Epochs Max length Weight decay
Vicuna-13B 128 2e-5 3 2048 0

Fine-tuning on Any Cloud with SkyPilot

SkyPilot is a framework built by UC Berkeley for easily and cost effectively running ML workloads on any cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, Lambda, etc.). To use SkyPilot, install it with the following command and setup the cloud credentials locally following the instructions here.

# Install skypilot from the master branch
pip install git+https://github.com/skypilot-org/skypilot.git

Vicuna

Vicuna can be trained on 8 A100 GPUs with 80GB memory. The following command will automatically launch a node satisfying the requirement, setup and run the training job on it.

sky launch -c vicuna -s scripts/train-vicuna.yaml --env WANDB_API_KEY

Other options are also valid:

# Launch it on managed spot to save 3x cost (train Vicuna-13B with around $300)
sky spot launch -n vicuna scripts/train-vicuna.yaml --env WANDB_API_KEY

# Train a 7B model
sky launch -c vicuna -s scripts/train-vicuna.yaml --env WANDB_API_KEY --env MODEL_SIZE=7

Note: Please make sure the WANDB_API_KEY has been setup on your local machine. You can find the API key on your wandb profile page. If you would like to train the model without using wandb, you can replace the --env WANDB_API_KEY flag with --env WANDB_MODE=offline.

Alpaca

Launch the training job with the following line (will be launched on a single node with 4 A100-80GB GPUs)

sky launch -c alpaca -s scripts/train-alpaca.yaml --env WANDB_API_KEY

Fine-tuning with Local GPUs

Vicuna can also be trained on 8 A100 GPUs with 80GB memory with the following code. To train on fewer GPUs, you can reduce the per_device_train_batch_size and increase the gradient_accumulation_steps accordingly to keep the global batch size the same. To setup the environment, please see the setup section in scripts/train-vicuna.yaml.
