# Finetuning LLAMA Using Q-Lora (experimental support)

This example demonstrates how to finetune a llama2-7b model use Big-LLM 4bit optimizations using [Intel GPUs](../README.md).

## 0. Requirements
To run this example with BigDL-LLM on Intel GPUs, we have some recommended requirements for your machine, please refer to [here](../README.md#recommended-requirements) for more information.

## Example: Finetune llama2-7b using qlora

This example is ported from [bnb-4bit-training](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1VoYNfYDKcKRQRor98Zbf2-9VQTtGJ24k?usp=sharing). The `export_merged_model.py` is ported from [alpaca-lora](https://github.com/tloen/alpaca-lora/blob/main/export_hf_checkpoint.py).

### 1. Install

```bash
conda create -n llm python=3.9
conda activate llm
# below command will install intel_extension_for_pytorch==2.1.10+xpu as default
pip install --pre --upgrade bigdl-llm[xpu] -f https://developer.intel.com/ipex-whl-stable-xpu
pip install datasets transformers==4.34.0
pip install peft==0.5.0
pip install accelerate==0.23.0
pip install bitsandbytes scipy
```

### 2. Configures OneAPI environment variables
```bash
source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh
```

### 3. Finetune model

```
python ./qlora_finetuning.py --repo-id-or-model-path REPO_ID_OR_MODEL_PATH
```

```

### 4. Merge the adapter into the original model

```
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.
