v0.6.0

What's new

Added 🎉

• A bunch of annealing configs
• constant_with_warmup learning rate schedule
• one_in_eight configuration for activation checkpointing
• New tokenizer in the source instead of from huggingface
• Improved support for GCS
• torch.compile() now only compiles each block, not the whole model.
• Support for torch.compile() with dynamic=True
• Resetting the torch.compile() after every evaluation, because evaluation messes with the compiled versions
• Added more in-loop evaluation tasks to pick from, mostly for scaling law.

v0.5.0

What's new

• Fixed conversion to HuggingFace model for DDP-trained models.
• Added support for remote source and destination for HuggingFace model conversion.

Added 🎉

• Added support for document masking via flash-attn during training with --data.generate_doc_lengths.
• Added config options for model.norm_after, model.scale_emb_init, and auxiliary_loss_multiplier (used with zloss).
• Added scripts for running experiments on qk_norm, norm reordering, and zloss.
• Added model.rope_theta configuration option.
• Added model.embedding_layer_norm configuration option for adding a LN to the embeddings.

• Version dolma flan change in named_data_mix.py

Changed ⚠️

• Changed default distributed training strategy from single-GPU to FSDP

Fixed ✅

• Fixed restarting a training run in later epochs so that we no longer need to set the flag --epoch=INT.
• Swapped in correct flan data mix.
• Fix bug where the attention norm, when applied before the attention block, was modifying the residual stream.
• Fixed OLMo.from_checkpoint() so that it correctly loads olmo_core and torch_new style checkpoints.
• Fixed preserve_rng_state being incorrectly set to False when doing gradient checkpointing with dropout

v0.4.0

What's new

Added 🎉

• Added clipping fix to Optimizer class to make it work with FSDP no_shard and DDP.
• Added tests to compare grad norm differences between torch optimizer and clipping and OLMo optimizer and clipping on both CPU and GPU.
• Expose memmap dtype in data config
• Added support for DDP training.
• Added caching to disk of HF datasets used in downstream evals
• Added FLOPs logging
• Added configs for OLMo tiny set of models
• Added configuration field optimizer.record_update_metrics, which defaults to False, but when set to True will trigger AdamW to collect the step size norm and absolute max for each parameter.
• Added configuration field optimizer.selective_updates, which defaults to False, but when set to True will tell the optimizer to skip updating the parameter and state when the corresponding gradient is 0.
• Added configuration field optimizer.record_update_metrics, which defaults to False, but when set to True will trigger AdamW to collect the step size norm and absolute max for each parameter.
• Added olmo_data, a package holding data files like tokenizers.
• Added ability to load tokenizers from olmo_data package data.

Changed ⚠️

• Added original legacy unsharding implementation back, as the default. The new
  shared memory implementation can be used by passing use_legacy_shared_mem_impl to unshard.py.
• Refactor weight initialization. IMPORTANT: this does not maintain backwards-compatibility with older configs; the jobs will still run, but may produce different outputs.
• Changed the behavior of the Lion optimizer to only record the update cosine similarity when optimizer.record_update_metrics is True in order to be consistent with the API.
• Added HF datasets into olmo_data, and changed downstream eval to load from the package.

Fixed ✅

• Changed from ignored_index to ignore_index for cross_entropy_loss when flash-attn>=2.5.8.
• Make hf_olmo support AutoModelForCasualLM and similar HF methods again.

v0.3.0

What's new

Added 🎉

• Added support for Grouped Query Attention.
• Added commonsense_qa and social_iqa downstream evaluation tasks
• Makes it possible to read from http/https the same way we read from s3/r2.
• Added MMLU multiple choice (A/B/C/D) 5-shot variant downstream tasks
• Tokenizer patch
• Added option to specify number of model replicas when using hybrid sharding.

Changed ⚠️

• Rename Olmo to OLMo everywhere in the codebase
• Disabled automatic garbage collection during training, instead we run manually at regular intervals to avoid ranks getting out-of-sync with their own gc.

Removed 👋

• Removed AMDLayerNorm, since the original layer norm bug has been fixed and we don't need this workaround anymore.
• Removed OLMoParallelBlock.

Fixed ✅

• Don't log garbage on nodes that aren't rank 0
• Don't crash in the HF code when we are referring to a tokenizer in a local file
• Point official training scripts to publicly available URLs
• Corrected the resize_token_embeddings method in the OLMoForCausalLM class to properly update the token embeddings when resizing the vocabulary.
• Changed tie_weights method to a no-op as weight tying is handled in olmo/model.py
• Fixed the size calculation for qk layer norm
• Fixed pipeline test failure that occurs due to a bug in transformers version 4.39.1
• Make hf_olmo compatible with transformers versions >=4.40.0

v0.2.5

What's new

Fixed ✅

• Fixed default value of --tokenizer argument to scripts/prepare_tulu_data.py to be an absolute path, not relative path, the script can be run from other directories.
• Added the option to directly pass input embeddings to OLMo and OLMoForCausalLM.
• Added support for Python 3.8.
• Added code to throw an error if output_attentions is set to True in forward call to OLMoForCausalLM. This functionality hasn't been implemented yet.
• Fixed running with data loading workers on LUMI

Added 🎉

• Added output_hidden_states argument and associated functionality to OLMo and OLMoForCausalLM to return model intermediate hidden states.
• Added MMLU downstream evaluation tasks, with prompt variations.
• Added support for PyTorch v2.2.
• Added ability to show logs from all ranks
• Added option for QKV clipping.

Changed ⚠️

• Refactor torch.load monkey patching for legacy checkpoint unsharding in anticipation of unsharding implementation change.
