Olifant: Memory-based language modeling

This repository contains the Olifant model, an implementation of memory-based language modeling, presented in the paper Memory-based Language Models: An Efficient, Explainable, and Eco-friendly Approach to Large Language Modeling.

Olifant models offer several unique properties and benefits:

Scalable Learning: Learning is scalable and incremental. Model performance increases approximately log-linearly with more data; model size, learning time, and RAM usage co-scale linearly with more data.
Low CO2 Emissions: Consistently low CO2 emissions during training and inference. Olifant runs on CPUs, with estimated CO2 emissions significantly lower than neural LM training (1,000 times fewer) and inference (10-100 times lower).
Transparent Functioning: Fully transparent functioning. Olifant offers nearest-neighbor-based explanations for predictions, based on individual examples, allowing for full provenance.
Intentional Memorization: Depending on context size settings, Olifant models can recite the majority of tokens from their training data faithfully.

For more details, installation instructions, and further usage examples, please refer to the official GitHub repository.

Usage (Hugging Face style)

You can use the TimblHuggingFaceModel with the Hugging Face transformers library for GPT-style text completion. This requires the olifant library to be installed (e.g., pip install olifant).

Note: For actual inference, you will need a trained .ibase classifier file. The CLASSIFIER_PATH in the example below should point to your .ibase file. You can generate this file by following the training instructions in the Olifant GitHub repository.

python

import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoConfig
from olifant.model.hf_wrapper import TimblHuggingFaceModel
from olifant.classifier import timbl

# Define paths and arguments
# IMPORTANT: Replace "path/to/your/textfile_tok.l4r0.ibase" with the actual path to your .ibase file.
CLASSIFIER_PATH = "path/to/your/textfile_tok.l4r0.ibase"
TOKENIZER_NAME = "gpt2" # The tokenizer used during training (e.g., 'gpt2' as per olifant-tok)
TIMBL_ARGS = "-a4" # For TRIBL2 k-NN approximation (as recommended for inference)

# Initialize the tokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(TOKENIZER_NAME)
tokenizer.add_special_tokens({'pad_token': '_'})
tokenizer.pad_token = "_" # Ensure pad token is set

# Initialize the Timbl classifier
classifier_core = timbl.TimblClassifier(CLASSIFIER_PATH, TIMBL_ARGS)
classifier_core.load()

# Load the model configuration from the Hugging Face Hub
config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained("antalvdb/mblm-chatbot-instruction-prompts-igtree")

# Initialize the TimblHuggingFaceModel
model = TimblHuggingFaceModel(config, classifier_core, tokenizer)

# Example text generation
input_text = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy"
input_ids = tokenizer.encode(input_text, return_tensors="pt")

# Perform text generation
with torch.no_grad():
    output_ids = model.generate(
        input_ids,
        max_new_tokens=10,
        num_beams=1,
        do_sample=False, # Use greedy decoding for simplicity
        pad_token_id=tokenizer.pad_token_id,
        eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id,
    )

generated_text = tokenizer.decode(output_ids[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(f"Input: {input_text}")
print(f"Generated: {generated_text}")
