abdullah-Qwen-Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct-merged-two-same-model-slerp

abdullah-Qwen-Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct-merged-two-same-model-slerp is a merge of the following models using mergekit:

• Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct
• Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct

🧩 Configuration

Note: You nedd to change the layer range based on number of layers in the model. For Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct number of layer is 24. The notebook used (see below in reference section had layer_range [0, 32], this is not true for the qwen model I am using here)

slices:
  - sources:
      - model: Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct
        layer_range: [0, 24]
      - model: Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct
        layer_range: [0, 24]
merge_method: slerp
base_model: Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct
parameters:
  t:
    - filter: self_attn
      value: [0, 0.5, 0.3, 0.7, 1]
    - filter: mlp
      value: [1, 0.5, 0.7, 0.3, 0]
    - value: 0.5
dtype: bfloat16

Quickstart

Here provides a code snippet with apply_chat_template to show you how to load the tokenizer and model and how to generate contents.

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_name = "abdullahalzubaer/abdullah-Qwen-Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct-merged-two-same-model-slerp"

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

prompt = "Give me a short introduction to large language model."
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are Qwen, created by Alibaba Cloud. You are a helpful assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=False,
    add_generation_prompt=True
)
model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

generated_ids = model.generate(
    **model_inputs,
    max_new_tokens=512
)
generated_ids = [
    output_ids[len(input_ids):] for input_ids, output_ids in zip(model_inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
]

response = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
