Redmond-Hermes-Coder

Model Card: Redmond-Hermes-Coder 15B

Model Description

Redmond-Hermes-Coder 15B is a state-of-the-art language model fine-tuned on over 300,000 instructions. This model was fine-tuned by Nous Research, with Teknium and Karan4D leading the fine tuning process and dataset curation, Redmond AI sponsoring the compute, and several other contributors.

This model was trained with a WizardCoder base, which itself uses a StarCoder base model.

The model is truly great at code, but, it does come with a tradeoff though. While far better at code than the original Nous-Hermes built on Llama, it is worse than WizardCoder at pure code benchmarks, like HumanEval.

It comes in at 39% on HumanEval, with WizardCoder at 57%. This is a preliminary experiment, and we are exploring improvements now.

However, it does seem better at non-code than WizardCoder on a variety of things, including writing tasks.

Model Training

The model was trained almost entirely on synthetic GPT-4 outputs. This includes data from diverse sources such as GPTeacher, the general, roleplay v1&2, code instruct datasets, Nous Instruct & PDACTL (unpublished), CodeAlpaca, Evol_Instruct Uncensored, GPT4-LLM, and Unnatural Instructions.

Additional data inputs came from Camel-AI's Biology/Physics/Chemistry and Math Datasets, Airoboros' (v1) GPT-4 Dataset, and more from CodeAlpaca. The total volume of data encompassed over 300,000 instructions.

Collaborators

The model fine-tuning and the datasets were a collaboration of efforts and resources from members of Nous Research, includingTeknium, Karan4D, Huemin Art, and Redmond AI's generous compute grants.

Huge shoutout and acknowledgement is deserved for all the dataset creators who generously share their datasets openly.

Among the contributors of datasets, GPTeacher was made available by Teknium, Wizard LM by nlpxucan, and the Nous Research Instruct Dataset was provided by Karan4D and HueminArt.
The GPT4-LLM and Unnatural Instructions were provided by Microsoft, Airoboros dataset by jondurbin, Camel-AI datasets are from Camel-AI, and CodeAlpaca dataset by Sahil 2801. If anyone was left out, please open a thread in the community tab.

Future Plans

The model is currently being uploaded in FP16 format, and there are plans to convert the model to GGML and GPTQ 4bit quantizations. The team is also working on a full benchmark, similar to what was done for GPT4-x-Vicuna. We will try to get in discussions to get the model included in the GPT4All.
