💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

Encode and Decode with mistral_common

from mistral_common.tokens.tokenizers.mistral import MistralTokenizer
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.messages import UserMessage
from mistral_common.protocol.instruct.request import ChatCompletionRequest
 
mistral_models_path = "MISTRAL_MODELS_PATH"
 
tokenizer = MistralTokenizer.v1()
 
completion_request = ChatCompletionRequest(messages=[UserMessage(content="Explain Machine Learning to me in a nutshell.")])
 
tokens = tokenizer.encode_chat_completion(completion_request).tokens

Inference with mistral_inference

from mistral_inference.transformer import Transformer
from mistral_inference.generate import generate
 
model = Transformer.from_folder(mistral_models_path)
out_tokens, _ = generate([tokens], model, max_tokens=64, temperature=0.0, eos_id=tokenizer.instruct_tokenizer.tokenizer.eos_id)

result = tokenizer.decode(out_tokens[0])

print(result)

Inference with hugging face transformers

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
 
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.1")
model.to("cuda")
 
generated_ids = model.generate(tokens, max_new_tokens=1000, do_sample=True)

# decode with mistral tokenizer
result = tokenizer.decode(generated_ids[0].tolist())
print(result)

Advanced Usage

Instruction Format and Chat Template

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

device = "cuda" # the device to load the model onto

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.1")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.1")

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "What is your favourite condiment?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Well, I'm quite partial to a good squeeze of fresh lemon juice. It adds just the right amount of zesty flavour to whatever I'm cooking up in the kitchen!"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Do you have mayonnaise recipes?"}
]

encodeds = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt")

model_inputs = encodeds.to(device)
model.to(device)

generated_ids = model.generate(model_inputs, max_new_tokens=1000, do_sample=True)
decoded = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids)
print(decoded[0])

🔧 Technical Details

Model Architecture

This instruction model is based on Mistral-7B-v0.1, a transformer model with the following architecture choices:

• Grouped-Query Attention
• Sliding-Window Attention
• Byte-fallback BPE tokenizer

🛠️ Troubleshooting

If you see the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/transformers/models/auto/auto_factory.py", line 482, in from_pretrained
config, kwargs = AutoConfig.from_pretrained(
File "/transformers/models/auto/configuration_auto.py", line 1022, in from_pretrained
config_class = CONFIG_MAPPING[config_dict["model_type"]]
File "/transformers/models/auto/configuration_auto.py", line 723, in getitem
raise KeyError(key)
KeyError: 'mistral'

Installing transformers from source should solve the issue:

pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers

This should not be required after transformers-v4.33.4.

⚠️ Limitations

The Mistral 7B Instruct model is a quick demonstration that the base model can be easily fine-tuned to achieve compelling performance. It does not have any moderation mechanisms. We're looking forward to engaging with the community on ways to make the model finely respect guardrails, allowing for deployment in environments requiring moderated outputs.

💡 Usage Tip

PRs to correct the transformers tokenizer so that it gives 1-to-1 the same results as the mistral_common reference implementation are very welcome!
