From original readme

Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Instruct is a model for generating responses for various text-generation tasks including roleplaying, retrieval augmented generation, and function calling. It is a fine-tuned version of nvidia/Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Base, which was pruned and distilled from Mistral-NeMo 12B using our LLM compression technique. The model was trained using a multi-stage SFT and preference-based alignment technique with NeMo Aligner. For details on the alignment technique, please refer to the Nemotron-4 340B Technical Report. The model supports a context length of 8,192 tokens.

Model Developer: NVIDIA

Model Dates: Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Instruct was trained between August 2024 and September 2024.

Model Architecture

Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Instruct uses a model embedding size of 4096, 32 attention heads, MLP intermediate dimension of 11520, with 40 layers in total. Additionally, it uses Grouped-Query Attention (GQA) and Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE).

Architecture Type: Transformer Decoder (Auto-regressive Language Model)

Network Architecture: Mistral-NeMo

Prompt Format:

We recommend using the following prompt template, which was used to fine-tune the model. The model may not perform optimally without it.

<extra_id_0>System
{system prompt}

<extra_id_1>User
{prompt}
<extra_id_1>Assistant\n

• Note that a newline character \n should be added at the end of the prompt.
• We recommend using <extra_id_1> as a stop token.

Usage

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

# Load the tokenizer and model
tokenizer  = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("nvidia/Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("nvidia/Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Instruct")

# Use the prompt template
messages = [
    {
        "role": "system",
        "content": "You are a friendly chatbot who always responds in the style of a pirate",
    },
    {"role": "user", "content": "How many helicopters can a human eat in one sitting?"},
 ]
tokenized_chat = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt")

outputs = model.generate(tokenized_chat, stop_strings=["<extra_id_1>"], tokenizer=tokenizer)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))

You can also use pipeline but you need to create a tokenizer object and assign it to the pipeline manually.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from transformers import pipeline

tokenizer  = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("nvidia/Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Instruct")

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="nvidia/Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B-Instruct")
pipe(messages, max_new_tokens=64, stop_strings=["<extra_id_1>"], tokenizer=tokenizer)
