llama3_baseline_dev

advanced-transformers-lib -- Llama 3 Baseline

A Llama 3-style decoder-only transformer architecture for research. No pretrained weights -- pull the architecture from the Hub and instantiate a freshly initialised model from config. Override any parameter at instantiation time.

Important: trust_remote_code=True is required. It downloads the architecture source files from the Hub and imports them into your Python process. Review the source at smithblack-0/llama3_baseline_dev before use.

Usage

from transformers import AutoConfig, AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

# Pull architecture config -- override any parameter at instantiation time
config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained(
    "smithblack-0/llama3_baseline_dev",
    trust_remote_code=True,
    num_hidden_layers=16,  # example override
)

# Instantiate with fresh random weights -- no checkpoint required
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_config(config, trust_remote_code=True)

# Load tokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("smithblack-0/llama3_baseline_dev")

# Save and reload after training
model.save_pretrained("./checkpoint")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("./checkpoint", trust_remote_code=True)
