# Mixtral-Experiment Series Welcome to the Mixtral-Experiment series! This series of notebooks and scripts aims to provide a comprehensive guide on investigating the internal workings of Large Language Models (LLMs), understanding how they process inputs, and experimenting with their architectures. ## Table of Contents - [Introduction](#introduction) - [Series Overview](#series-overview) - [Getting Started](#getting-started) - [Notebooks and Scripts](#notebooks-and-scripts) - [Contributing](#contributing) - [License](#license) ## Introduction Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized the field of natural language processing (NLP) by achieving state-of-the-art performance on various tasks. However, understanding their internal workings and how they process inputs can be challenging. This series aims to demystify LLMs by providing detailed explanations, hands-on experiments, and practical tips for tweaking their architectures. ## Series Overview The Mixtral-Experiment series will cover the following topics: 1. **Understanding LLM Architectures**: - An overview of popular LLM architectures like Transformers, BERT, and Mixtral. - Detailed explanations of key components such as embedding layers, self-attention mechanisms, and Mixture of Experts (MoE) layers. 2. **Investigating Input Processing**: - How inputs are tokenized and embedded. - The role of attention mechanisms in processing sequences. - Visualizing and analyzing the outputs at various layers of the model. 3. **Tweaking LLM Architectures**: - Experimenting with different configurations and hyperparameters. - Modifying existing LLM architectures to improve performance or adapt to specific tasks. - Implementing custom layers and components. 4. **Conducting New Experiments**: - Designing and implementing new experiments to test hypotheses about LLM behavior. - Evaluating the impact of architectural changes on model performance. - Sharing insights and findings with the community. ## Getting Started To get started with the LLM-Experiment series, you will need the following: 1. **Python Environment**: - All these notebooks are created in Kaggle or Google Colab, So it's recommended to use the same to reproduce the results for other models 2. **Hugging Face Account**: - Create a Hugging Face account and obtain an API token. - Login to Hugging Face using the provided token or username and token. - Most of the Mistral,Llama models needs some sort of Agreement acceptance 3. **Notebooks and Scripts**: - Clone this repository to access the notebooks and scripts or you can directly open in Google Colab - Follow the instructions in each notebook to run the experiments and analyze the results. ## Notebooks and Scripts The series will include the following notebooks and scripts: 1. **Mixtral Model Analysis**: - Analyzing the architecture and configuration of the Mixtral model. - Registering hooks to capture the outputs at various layers. 2. **Input Processing and Embedding**: - Upcoming 3. **Attention Mechanisms and improvements**: - Upcoming 4. **Rolling Buffer,KV-cache,Sliding Window Attention**: - Upcoming 5. **Tweaking Model Architectures - Adapters,Down-Casting**: - Upcoming ## Contributing We welcome contributions from the community!
