gemma-2-9b-it-DPO Model Card

This model was trained under the same setup as gemma-2-9b-it-SimPO, with the DPO objective.

SimPO (Simple Preference Optimization) is an offline preference optimization algorithm designed to enhance the training of large language models (LLMs) with preference optimization datasets. SimPO aligns the reward function with the generation likelihood, eliminating the need for a reference model and incorporating a target reward margin to boost performance. Please refer to our preprint and github repo for more details.

How to Get Started with the Model

import torch
from transformers import pipeline

model_id = "princeton-nlp/gemma-2-9b-it-DPO"

generator = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16},
    device="cuda",
)
outputs = generator([{"role": "user", "content": "What's the difference between llamas and alpacas?"}], do_sample=False, max_new_tokens=200)
print(outputs[0]['generated_text'])

Training Details

Training Data

We use princeton-nlp/gemma2-ultrafeedback-armorm as the preference optimization dataset.

Training Hyperparameters

We used the following hyperparameters:

learning rate: 5e-7
batch size: 128
beta: 0.01

The other hyperparameters are kept the same with our SimPO recipe.

Speeds, Sizes, Times

Fine-tuning the google/gemma-2-9b-it on princeton-nlp/gemma2-ultrafeedback-armorm takes around 150 mins to finish on 8xH100 GPUs.
