1. Prepare Vicuna Checkpoint

The language decoder of NExT-GPT relies on Vicuna version 0 which is an open-source LLaMA-based LLM. However, due to the distribution license of LLaMA, manual restoration of Vicuna's weights is required. Below are the instructions for restoring these weights. (These original instruction comes from the PandaGPT).

1.1. Prepare LLaMA Weights

  • Request the original weights of LLaMA from Meta by filling this form.
  • After obtaining the weights of a specific LLaMA (e.g. 7B, 13B), following instructions provided by Huggingface to convert it into Huggingface format.

**** After conversion, the directory should look like:

.
└── ./{path_to_llama_weights}/             
│   ├── config.json
│   ├── generation_config.json
│   ├── pytorch_model-00001-of-00002.bin
│   ├── pytorch_model-00002-of-00002.bin
│   ├── pytorch_model.bin.index.json
│   ├── special_tokens_map.json
│   ├── tokenizer.model
│   └── tokenizer_config.json

{path_to_llama_weights} is where you store the checkpoints.

1.2. Prepare the Delta Weights of Vicuna

Then, you should download the delta weights of Vicuna provided by the original authors. You can find the corresponding links to 7B/13B Vicuna models in the table below.

Model Size Delta Weights Address Version
7B [Link] 0
13B [Link] 0

**** After conversion, the directory should look like:

.
└── ./{path_to_delta_vicuna_weights}/             
    ├── config.json
    ├── generation_config.json
    ├── pytorch_model-00001-of-00002.bin
    ├── pytorch_model-00002-of-00002.bin
    ├── pytorch_model.bin.index.json
    ├── special_tokens_map.json
    ├── tokenizer.model
    └── tokenizer_config.json

{path_to_delta_vicuna_weights} is where you store the delta weights of Vicuna.

1.3. Combine the Weights:

When the two sets of weights are ready, you can combine them using tools from the Vicuna team.

First, install the required library.

pip install git+https://github.com/lm-sys/FastChat.git@v0.1.10

Then, run the following command.

python -m fastchat.model.apply_delta --base {path_to_llama_weights}  --target ./vicuna_ckpt/7b_v0/  --delta {path_to_delta_vicuna_weights}

**** Now, the final weights are ready as:

.
└── ./vicuna_ckpt/7b_v0/             
    ├── config.json
    ├── generation_config.json
    ├── pytorch_model-00001-of-00002.bin
    ├── pytorch_model-00002-of-00002.bin
    ├── pytorch_model.bin.index.json
    ├── special_tokens_map.json
    ├── tokenizer.model
    └── tokenizer_config.json
