NeuralHermes 2.5 - Mistral 7B
NeuralHermes is an teknium/OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B model that has been further fine-tuned with Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) using the mlabonne/chatml_dpo_pairs dataset. It surpasses the original model on several benchmarks (see results).
It is directly inspired by the RLHF process described by Intel/neural-chat-7b-v3-1's authors to improve performance. I used the same dataset and reformatted it to apply the ChatML template.
The code to train this model is available on Google Colab and GitHub. It required an A100 GPU for about an hour.

Results
Teknium (author of OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B) benchmarked the model (see his tweet).
Results are improved on every benchmark: AGIEval (from 43.07% to 43.62%), GPT4All (from 73.12% to 73.25%), and TruthfulQA.

Usage
You can run this model using LM Studio or any other frontend.
You can also run this model using the following code:
import transformers
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
# Format prompt
message = [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant chatbot."},
{"role": "user", "content": "What is a Large Language Model?"}
]
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(new_model)
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(message, add_generation_prompt=True, tokenize=False)
# Create pipeline
pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
"text-generation",
model=new_model,
tokenizer=tokenizer
)
# Generate text
sequences = pipeline(
prompt,
do_sample=True,
temperature=0.7,
top_p=0.9,
num_return_sequences=1,
max_length=200,
)
print(sequences[0]['generated_text'])
