Evaluation

Zero-shot CoT Multilingual Math Reasoning

SeaLLM-7B-v2 achieves with 78.2 score on the GSM8K with zero-shot CoT reasoning, making it the state of the art in the realm of 7B models. It also outperforms GPT-3.5 in the same GSM8K benchmark as translated into SEA languages (🇨🇳 🇻🇳 🇮🇩 🇹🇭). SeaLLM-7B-v2 also surpasses GPT-3.5 on the Thai-translated MATH benchmark, with 22.4 vs 18.1 scores.

MT-Bench

On the English MT-bench metric, SeaLLM-7B-v2 achieves 7.54 score on the MT-bench (3rd place on the leaderboard for 7B category), outperforms many 70B models and is arguably the only one that handles 10 SEA languages.

Sea-Bench

Similar to MT-Bench, Sea-bench is a set of categorized instruction test sets to measure models' ability as an assistant that is specifically focused on 9 SEA languages, including non-Latin low-resource languages.

As shown, the huge improvements come from math-reasoning, reaching GPT-3.5 level of performance.

Usage

Instruction format

prompt = """<|im_start|>system
You are a helpful assistant.</s><|im_start|>user
Hello world</s><|im_start|>assistant
Hi there, how can I help?</s>"""

# NOTE: previous commit has \n between </s> and <|im_start|>, that was incorrect!
# <|im_start|> is not a special token.
# Transformers chat_template should be consistent with vLLM format below.

# ! ENSURE 1 and only 1 bos `<s>` at the beginning of sequence
print(tokenizer.convert_ids_to_tokens(tokenizer.encode(prompt)))

'<s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'system', '<0x0A>', 'You', '▁are', '▁a', '▁helpful', '▁assistant', '.', '</s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'user', '<0x0A>', 'Hello', '▁world', '</s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'ass', 'istant', '<0x0A>', 'Hi', '▁there', ',', '▁how', '▁can', '▁I', '▁help', '?', '</s>']
"""

Using transformers's chat_template

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

device = "cuda" # the device to load the model onto

# use bfloat16 to ensure the best performance.
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("SeaLLMs/SeaLLM-7B-v2", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map=device)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("SeaLLMs/SeaLLM-7B-v2")

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Hello world"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Hi there, how can I help you today?"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Explain general relativity in details."}
]

encodeds = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt", add_generation_prompt=True)
print(tokenizer.convert_ids_to_tokens(encodeds[0]))
# ['<s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'system', '<0x0A>', 'You', '▁are', '▁a', '▁helpful', '▁assistant', '.', '</s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'user', '<0x0A>', 'Hello', '▁world', '</s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'ass', 'istant', '<0x0A>', 'Hi', '▁there', ',', '▁how', '▁can', '▁I', '▁help', '▁you', '▁today', '?', '</s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'user', '<0x0A>', 'Ex', 'plain', '▁general', '▁rel', 'ativity', '▁in', '▁details', '.', '</s>', '▁<', '|', 'im', '_', 'start', '|', '>', 'ass', 'istant', '<0x0A>']

model_inputs = encodeds.to(device)
model.to(device)

generated_ids = model.generate(model_inputs, max_new_tokens=1000, do_sample=True, pad_token_id=tokenizer.pad_token_id)
decoded = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids)
print(decoded[0])

Using vLLM

from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

TURN_PREFIX = "<|im_start|>{role}\n"

# There is no \n between </s> and <|im_start|>.

    if add_assistant_prefix:

sparams = SamplingParams(temperature=0.1, max_tokens=1024, stop=['</s>', '<|im_start|>'])
llm = LLM("SeaLLMs/SeaLLM-7B-v2", dtype="bfloat16")

message = "Explain general relativity in details."
prompt = seallm_chat_convo_format(message, True)
gen = llm.generate(prompt, sampling_params)

print(gen[0].outputs[0].text)

Fine-tuning SeaLLM-7B-v2
