gpt-oss-120b-Eagle3-long-context

Model Overview

Description:

The NVIDIA gpt-oss-120b Eagle model is the Eagle head of the OpenAI’s gpt-oss-120b model, which is an auto-regressive language model that uses a mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture with 5 billion activated parameters and 120 billion total parameters. For more information, please check here. The NVIDIA gpt-oss-120b Eagle3 model incorporates Eagle speculative decoding with Model Optimizer.

This model is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. <br>

The integration of foundation and fine-tuned models into AI systems requires additional testing using use-case-specific data to ensure safe and effective deployment. Following the V-model methodology, iterative testing and validation at both unit and system levels are essential to mitigate risks, meet technical and functional requirements, and ensure compliance with safety and ethical standards before deployment.

Eagle Speculative Decoding

Synthesized data was obtained from OpenAI's gpt-oss-120b model, which is then used to finetune the Eagle modules. This model is ready for inference with TensorRT-LLM in Eagle speculative decoding mode. Eagle modules are used to predict candidate tokens beyond the next token. In the generation step, each forward Eagle module generates a distribution of tokens beyond the previous. Then, a tree-based attention mechanism samples some candidate sequences for the original model to validate. The longest accepted candidate sequence is selected so that more than 1 token is returned in the generation step. The number of tokens generated in each step is called acceptance rate.

Usage

To serve the checkpoint with TensorRT-LLM, follow the sample commands below with the TensorRT-LLM GitHub repo:

trtllm-serve <gpt-oss-120b checkpoint> --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --backend pytorch --max_batch_size 32 --max_num_tokens 8192 --max_seq_len 8192 --tp_size 8 --extra_llm_api_options extra-llm-api-config.yml

extra-llm-api-config.yml is like this

enable_attention_dp: false
disable_overlap_scheduler: true
enable_autotuner: false

cuda_graph_config:
    max_batch_size: 1

speculative_config:
    decoding_type: Eagle
    max_draft_len: 3
    speculative_model_dir: <eagle3 checkpoint>

kv_cache_config:
    enable_block_reuse: false

Evaluation

The Eagle acceptance rate benchmark results (MT-Bench) with draft length 3 are presented in the table below for medium reasoning:
