Bilirubin is a yellow pigment that forms when red blood cells break down. In most cases, newborn jaundice resolves on its own without any specific treatment. The duration of newborn jaundice can vary depending on several factors such as the underlying cause, gestational age at birth, and individual variations in bilirubin metabolism. Here are some general guidelines: 1. Physiological jaundice: This is the most common type of newborn jaundice and usually appears within 24-72 hours after birth. It tends to peak between the second and fifth day of life and gradually improves over the next week or two. By the time the baby is one week old, the jaundice should have mostly resolved. 2. Breast milk jaundice: This type of jaundice occurs in breastfed babies and may appear later than physiological jaundice, typically between the fifth and fourteenth day of life. It tends to persist for a longer duration but usually resolves within six weeks after birth. 3. Pathological jaundice: This type of jaundice is less common and occurs due to an underlying medical condition that affects bilirubin metabolism or liver function. The duration of pathological jaundice depends on the specific cause and may require treatment. It''s important for parents to monitor their newborn''s jaundice closely and seek medical advice if the jaundice progresses rapidly, becomes severe, or is accompanied by other symptoms such as poor feeding, lethargy, or excessive sleepiness. In these cases, further evaluation and management may be necessary. Remember that each baby is unique, and the timing of jaundice resolution can vary. If you have concerns about your newborn''s jaundice, it''s always best to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice and guidance.' model-index: - name: OpenBioLLM-8B results: [] quantized_by: andrijdavid --- # Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B-GGUF - Original model: [Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B](https://huggingface.co/aaditya/Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B) ## Description This repo contains GGUF format model files for [Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B](https://huggingface.co/aaditya/Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B). ### About GGUF GGUF is a new format introduced by the llama.cpp team on August 21st 2023. It is a replacement for GGML, which is no longer supported by llama.cpp. Here is an incomplete list of clients and libraries that are known to support GGUF: * [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp).

Click to see details The new methods available are: * GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw) * GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw. * GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw. * GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw * GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw.
## How to download GGUF files **Note for manual downloaders:** You almost never want to clone the entire repo! Multiple different quantisation formats are provided, and most users only want to pick and download a single folder. The following clients/libraries will automatically download models for you, providing a list of available models to choose from: * LM Studio * LoLLMS Web UI * Faraday.dev ### In `text-generation-webui` Under Download Model, you can enter the model repo: LiteLLMs/Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf. Then click Download. ### On the command line, including multiple files at once I recommend using the `huggingface-hub` Python library: ```shell pip3 install huggingface-hub ``` Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this: ```shell huggingface-cli download LiteLLMs/Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B-GGUF Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False ```
More advanced huggingface-cli download usage (click to read) You can also download multiple files at once with a pattern: ```shell huggingface-cli download LiteLLMs/Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B-GGUF --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False --include='*Q4_K*gguf' ``` For more documentation on downloading with `huggingface-cli`, please see: [HF -> Hub Python Library -> Download files -> Download from the CLI](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/guides/download#download-from-the-cli). To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install `hf_transfer`: ```shell pip3 install huggingface_hub[hf_transfer] ``` And set environment variable `HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER` to `1`: ```shell HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download LiteLLMs/Llama3-OpenBioLLM-8B-GGUF Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False ``` Windows Command Line users: You can set the environment variable by running `set HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1` before the download command.
## Example `llama.cpp` command Make sure you are using `llama.cpp` from commit [d0cee0d](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/commit/d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221) or later. ```shell ./main -ngl 35 -m Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf --color -c 8192 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "" ``` Change `-ngl 32` to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration. Change `-c 8192` to the desired sequence length. For extended sequence models - eg 8K, 16K, 32K - the necessary RoPE scaling parameters are read from the GGUF file and set by llama.cpp automatically. Note that longer sequence lengths require much more resources, so you may need to reduce this value. If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the `-p ` argument with `-i -ins` For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to [the llama.cpp documentation](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/examples/main/README.md) ## How to run in `text-generation-webui` Further instructions can be found in the text-generation-webui documentation, here: [text-generation-webui/docs/04 ‐ Model Tab.md](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/04%20%E2%80%90%20Model%20Tab.md#llamacpp). ## How to run from Python code You can use GGUF models from Python using the [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python) or [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/ctransformers) libraries. Note that at the time of writing (Nov 27th 2023), ctransformers has not been updated for some time and is not compatible with some recent models. Therefore I recommend you use llama-cpp-python. ### How to load this model in Python code, using llama-cpp-python For full documentation, please see: [llama-cpp-python docs](https://abetlen.github.io/llama-cpp-python/). #### First install the package Run one of the following commands, according to your system: ```shell # Base ctransformers with no GPU acceleration pip install llama-cpp-python # With NVidia CUDA acceleration CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_CUBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with OpenBLAS acceleration CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_BLAS=ON -DLLAMA_BLAS_VENDOR=OpenBLAS" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with CLBLast acceleration CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_CLBLAST=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with AMD ROCm GPU acceleration (Linux only) CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_HIPBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # Or with Metal GPU acceleration for macOS systems only CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_METAL=on" pip install llama-cpp-python # In windows, to set the variables CMAKE_ARGS in PowerShell, follow this format; eg for NVidia CUDA: $env:CMAKE_ARGS = "-DLLAMA_OPENBLAS=on" pip install llama-cpp-python ``` #### Simple llama-cpp-python example code ```python from llama_cpp import Llama # Set gpu_layers to the number of layers to offload to GPU.
