GaLore: Advancing Large Model Training on Consumer-grade Hardware

Hugging Face 2 years ago 42

GaLore reduces memory requirements for training large language models by projecting gradients into lower-dimensional subspaces before optimizer processing. The technique achieves an 82.5% reduction in memory for optimizer states and enables training of 7-billion-parameter models on consumer GPUs like the NVIDIA RTX 4090. When combined with 8-bit quantization, GaLore allows researchers with limited computational resources to train larger models or use larger batch sizes on standard hardware.

Cosmopedia: how to create large-scale synthetic data for pre-training Large Language Models

Hugging Face 2 years ago 12

Researchers at Hugging Face created Cosmopedia, an open synthetic dataset containing 25 billion tokens generated using Mixtral-8x7B to replicate the training data behind Microsoft's Phi-1.5 language model. The dataset comprises over 30 million files across textbooks, blog posts, stories, and WikiHow articles, with less than 1% duplicate content achieved through extensive prompt engineering across 145 web-clustered topics and curated educational sources. The release includes the generation code, the full dataset, and a 1-billion-parameter model trained on it, enabling the community to reproduce high-performance language model training without proprietary data or models.

A Chatbot on your Laptop: Phi-2 on Intel Meteor Lake

Hugging Face 2 years ago 21

Microsoft's Phi-2, a 2.7-billion parameter language model, can now run on standard laptops using Intel's Meteor Lake processor with 4-bit quantization applied through the Optimum Intel library. The quantized model achieved adequate generation speed on a mid-range Core Ultra 7 155H laptop while maintaining high output quality for tasks like physics explanations and code generation. Local inference eliminates the need for cloud API calls, reducing latency and costs while enabling offline work and data privacy.
