+# Finetuning LLAMA Using QLoRA (experimental support)
+
+This example demonstrates how to finetune a llama2-7b model using Big-LLM 4bit optimizations on [Intel CPUs](../README.md).
+
+
+## Example: Finetune llama2-7b using QLoRA
+
+This example is ported from [bnb-4bit-training](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1VoYNfYDKcKRQRor98Zbf2-9VQTtGJ24k). 
+
+### 1. Install
+
+```bash
+conda create -n llm python=3.9
+conda activate llm
+pip install --pre --upgrade bigdl-llm[all]
+pip install transformers==4.34.0
+pip install peft==0.5.0
+pip install datasets
+```
+
+### 2. Finetune model
+
+```
+python ./qlora_finetuning_cpu.py --repo-id-or-model-path REPO_ID_OR_MODEL_PATH --dataset DATASET
+```
+
+#### Sample Output
+```log
+{'loss': 2.5668, 'learning_rate': 0.0002, 'epoch': 0.03}
+{'loss': 1.6988, 'learning_rate': 0.00017777777777777779, 'epoch': 0.06}
+{'loss': 1.3073, 'learning_rate': 0.00015555555555555556, 'epoch': 0.1}
+{'loss': 1.3495, 'learning_rate': 0.00013333333333333334, 'epoch': 0.13}
+{'loss': 1.1746, 'learning_rate': 0.00011111111111111112, 'epoch': 0.16}
+{'loss': 1.0794, 'learning_rate': 8.888888888888889e-05, 'epoch': 0.19}
+{'loss': 1.2214, 'learning_rate': 6.666666666666667e-05, 'epoch': 0.22}
+{'loss': 1.1698, 'learning_rate': 4.4444444444444447e-05, 'epoch': 0.26}
+{'loss': 1.2044, 'learning_rate': 2.2222222222222223e-05, 'epoch': 0.29}
+{'loss': 1.1516, 'learning_rate': 0.0, 'epoch': 0.32}
+{'train_runtime': 474.3254, 'train_samples_per_second': 1.687, 'train_steps_per_second': 0.422, 'train_loss': 1.3923714351654053, 'epoch': 0.32}
+100%|█████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 200/200 [07:54<00:00,  2.37s/it]
+TrainOutput(global_step=200, training_loss=1.3923714351654053, metrics={'train_runtime': 474.3254, 'train_samples_per_second': 1.687, 'train_steps_per_second': 0.422, 'train_loss': 1.3923714351654053, 'epoch': 0.32})
+```
+
+### 3. Merge the adapter into the original model
+Using the [export_merged_model.py](https://github.com/intel-analytics/BigDL/blob/main/python/llm/example/GPU/QLoRA-FineTuning/export_merged_model.py) to merge.
+```
+python ./export_merged_model.py --repo-id-or-model-path REPO_ID_OR_MODEL_PATH --adapter_path ./outputs/checkpoint-200 --output_path ./outputs/checkpoint-200-merged
+```
+
+Then you can use `./outputs/checkpoint-200-merged` as a normal huggingface transformer model to do inference.
+
+### 4. Use BigDL-LLM to verify the fine-tuning effect
+Train more steps and try input sentence like `['quote'] -> [?]` to verify. For example, using `“QLoRA fine-tuning using BigDL-LLM 4bit optimizations on Intel CPU is Efficient and convenient” ->: ` to inference.
+BigDL-LLM llama2 example [link](https://github.com/intel-analytics/BigDL/tree/main/python/llm/example/CPU/HF-Transformers-AutoModels/Model/llama2). Update the `LLAMA2_PROMPT_FORMAT = "{prompt}"`.
+```bash
+python ./generate.py --repo-id-or-model-path REPO_ID_OR_MODEL_PATH --prompt "“QLoRA fine-tuning using BigDL-LLM 4bit optimizations on Intel CPU is Efficient and convenient” ->:"  --n-predict 20
+```
+
+#### Sample Output
+Base_model output
+```log
+Inference time: 1.7017452716827393 s
+-------------------- Prompt --------------------
+“QLoRA fine-tuning using BigDL-LLM 4bit optimizations on Intel CPU is Efficient and convenient” ->:
+-------------------- Output --------------------
+“QLoRA fine-tuning using BigDL-LLM 4bit optimizations on Intel CPU is Efficient and convenient” ->: 💻 Fine-tuning a language model on a powerful device like an Intel CPU
+```
+Merged_model output
+```log
+Special tokens have been added in the vocabulary, make sure the associated word embeddings are fine-tuned or trained.
+Inference time: 2.864234209060669 s
+-------------------- Prompt --------------------
+“QLoRA fine-tuning using BigDL-LLM 4bit optimizations on Intel CPU is Efficient and convenient” ->:
+-------------------- Output --------------------
+“QLoRA fine-tuning using BigDL-LLM 4bit optimizations on Intel CPU is Efficient and convenient” ->: ['bigdl'] ['deep-learning'] ['distributed-computing'] ['intel'] ['optimization'] ['training'] ['training-speed']
