Towerinstruct Mistral 7B V0.2

🚀 Model Card for TowerInstruct-Mistral-7B-v0.2

TowerInstruct-Mistral-7B-v0.2 is a language model designed for various translation-related tasks. It offers comparable performance to TowerInstruct-13B-v0.2 with only half the size.

🚀 Quick Start

Here's how you can run the model using the pipeline() function from 🤗 Transformers:

Basic Usage

# Install transformers from source - only needed for versions <= v4.34
# pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers.git
# pip install accelerate

import torch
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="Unbabel/TowerInstruct-Mistral-7B-v0.2", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto")
# We use the tokenizer’s chat template to format each message - see https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/chat_templating
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Translate the following text from Portuguese into English.\nPortuguese: Um grupo de investigadores lançou um novo modelo para tarefas relacionadas com tradução.\nEnglish:"},
]
prompt = pipe.tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
outputs = pipe(prompt, max_new_tokens=256, do_sample=False)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"])
# <|im_start|>user
# Translate the following text from Portuguese into English.
# Portuguese: Um grupo de investigadores lançou um novo modelo para tarefas relacionadas com tradução.
# English:<|im_end|>
# <|im_start|>assistant
# A group of researchers has launched a new model for translation-related tasks.

✨ Features

• Multilingual Support: Supports 10 languages including English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German, Dutch, Italian, Korean, Chinese, and Russian.
• Diverse Task Handling: Capable of handling general machine translation, automatic post - edition, named - entity recognition, grammatical error correction, and paraphrase generation.
• Size - Performance Balance: Offers performance comparable to TowerInstruct-13B-v0.2 while being half the size.

📦 Installation

The code example in the Quick Start section shows the necessary installation steps. You may need to install transformers from source for versions <= v4.34 and accelerate.

# Install transformers from source - only needed for versions <= v4.34
pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers.git
pip install accelerate

📚 Documentation

Model Details

Model Description

TowerInstruct-Mistral-7B-v0.2 is a language model that results from fine-tuning a Mistral version of TowerBase on the TowerBlocks supervised fine-tuning dataset. The model is trained to handle several translation-related tasks, such as general machine translation (e.g., sentence- and paragraph/document-level translation, terminology-aware translation, context-aware translation), automatic post edition, named-entity recognition, grammatical error correction, and paraphrase generation.

This model has performance comparable to TowerInstruct-13B-v0.2, while being half the size. Check out our paper in COLM 2024.

Intended uses & limitations

The model was initially fine-tuned on a filtered and preprocessed supervised fine-tuning dataset (TowerBlocks), which contains a diverse range of data sources:

• Translation (sentence and paragraph-level)
• Automatic Post Edition
• Machine Translation Evaluation
• Context-aware Translation
• Terminology-aware Translation
• Multi-reference Translation
• Named-entity Recognition
• Paraphrase Generation
• Synthetic Chat data
• Code instructions

You can find the dataset and all data sources of TowerBlocks here.

Out-of-Scope Use

The model is not guaranteed to perform for languages other than the 10 languages it supports. Even though we trained the model on conversational data and code instructions, it is not intended to be used as a conversational chatbot or code assistant. We are currently working on improving quality and consistency on document-level translation. This model should is not intended to be use as a document-level translator.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

TowerInstruct-Mistral-7B-v0.2 has not been aligned to human preferences, so the model may generate problematic outputs (e.g., hallucinations, harmful content, or false statements).

Prompt Format

TowerInstruct-Mistral-7B-v0.2 was trained using the ChatML prompt templates without any system prompts. An example follows below:

<|im_start|>user
{USER PROMPT}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
{MODEL RESPONSE}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
[...]

Supervised tasks

The prompts for all supervised tasks can be found in TowerBlocks. We have used multiple prompt templates for each task. While different prompts may offer different outputs, the difference in downstream performance should be very minimal.
