Granite

Granite is a 3B parameter language model trained with the Power scheduler. Discovering a good learning rate for pretraining large language models is difficult because it depends on so many variables (batch size, number of training tokens, etc.) and it is expensive to perform a hyperparameter search. The Power scheduler is based on a power-law relationship between the variables and their transferability to larger models. Combining the Power scheduler with Maximum Update Parameterization (MUP) allows a model to be pretrained with one set of hyperparameters regardless of all the variables.

You can find all the original Granite checkpoints under the IBM-Granite organization.

Tip

Click on the Granite models in the right sidebar for more examples of how to apply Granite to different language tasks.

The example below demonstrates how to generate text with [Pipeline], [AutoModel, and from the command line.

from transformers import pipeline


pipe = pipeline(
    task="text-generation",
    model="ibm-granite/granite-3.3-2b-base",
    device=0
)
pipe("Explain quantum computing in simple terms ", max_new_tokens=50)
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer


tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ibm-granite/granite-3.3-2b-base")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "ibm-granite/granite-3.3-2b-base",
    device_map="auto",
    attn_implementation="sdpa"
)

inputs = tokenizer("Explain quantum computing in simple terms", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_length=50, cache_implementation="static")
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

Quantization reduces the memory burden of large models by representing the weights in a lower precision. Refer to the Quantization overview for more available quantization backends.

The example below uses bitsandbytes to only quantize the weights to int4.

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, BitsAndBytesConfig


quantization_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(load_in_4bit=True)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ibm-granite/granite-3.3-8b-base")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("ibm-granite/granite-3.3-8b-base", device_map="auto", attn_implementation="sdpa", quantization_config=quantization_config)

inputs = tokenizer("Explain quantum computing in simple terms", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_length=50, cache_implementation="static")
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

quantization_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(load_in_4bit=True)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ibm-granite/granite-3.3-2b-base")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "ibm-granite/granite-3.3-2b-base",
    device_map="auto",
    attn_implementation="sdpa",
    quantization_config=quantization_config,
)

input_ids = tokenizer("Explain artificial intelligence to a 10 year old", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_length=50, cache_implementation="static")
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
