Multi-label classification problems with thousands of possible classes are extremely challenging, especially when using in-context learning with large language models (LLMs). Demonstrating every possible class in the prompt is infeasible, and LLMs may lack the knowledge to precisely assign the correct labels. …
We've taken on the exciting challenge of implementing the cutting-edge strategies presented in "ZEPHYR: Direct Distillation of LM Alignment". This paper's approach is not just theoretical—it's a blueprint for a significant leap in language model training. By adopting ZEPHYR's distilled direct preference optimization (dDPO), we've embarked on a code journey that brings these innovations from concept to reality. …
In today's rapidly growing world of conversational AI, developers often seek ways to leverage multiple models seamlessly to diversify outputs and enhance user experience. One such scenario involves using different Local Language Models (LLMs) to serve different purposes or to offer a variety of responses. In this article, we'll explore a method to set up and switch between multiple local LLMs, particularly Zephyr and Mistral 7B, using the Chainlit and Langchain libraries. …
Model fine-tuning and quantization play pivotal roles in creating efficient and robust machine learning solutions. This blog post explores the fine-tuning process of the Zephyr 7B GPT-Q model using 4-bit quantization to boost its performance for custom data inference tasks. …
In the rapidly evolving landscape of large language models (LLMs), enhancing their capabilities and performance is pivotal. Three prominent techniques that stand out in achieving this are: …
Machine learning enthusiasts and researchers are constantly advancing the frontiers of technology, crafting larger and more sophisticated models, especially in the domain of Natural Language Processing (NLP). However, not all of us have the resources to run these behemoths. If you've ever been curious about running the more manageable, smaller counterparts of some of the most prominent language models on your own computer, then this blog post offers the perfect insight! …
