BitLinear-phi-1.5
BitLinear-phi-1.5 is a model trained partially using the method described in The Era of 1-bit LLMs: All Large Language Models are in 1.58 Bits.
Notice: Our BitLinear layer will only apply 1-bit quantization to the weight
Other components (RMSnorm, activation quant) in the paper is discarded.
Idea behind: The major contribution in their paper is introduced a valid binary weight quantization, we don't want to mix it with other components to make it difficult to evaluate the major part.
The model structure is from phi-1.5, with all linear layers except lm_head replaced with our custom BitLinear layer.
It was trained on a small subset of the wikipedia dataset dataset, for research validation purpose only.
dataset = load_dataset("wikipedia", "20220301.en")
dataset = dataset['train'].select(range(int(1e5)))
Please notice the kernel is not optimzed for 1-bit matrix yet.
The model is trained on a 3090(24GB) for 16 hours.
For faster(3x) inference, check https://github.com/Mrw33554432/Bitlinear4HF and install custom kernel
For training code, check https://github.com/Mrw33554432/Bitlinear4HF.
The training code should be compatible with most of the LLMs in huggingface.
Using pretrained model weight (normal models) for training will not work due to gradient explosion.
