Mamba

Overview

The Mamba model was proposed in Mamba: Linear-Time Sequence Modeling with Selective State Spaces by Albert Gu and Tri Dao.

This model is a new paradigm architecture based on state-space-models. You can read more about the intuition behind these here.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

Foundation models, now powering most of the exciting applications in deep learning, are almost universally based on the Transformer architecture and its core attention module. Many subquadratic-time architectures such as linear attention, gated convolution and recurrent models, and structured state space models (SSMs) have been developed to address Transformers’ computational inefficiency on long sequences, but they have not performed as well as attention on important modalities such as language. We identify that a key weakness of such models is their inability to perform content-based reasoning, and make several improvements. First, simply letting the SSM parameters be functions of the input addresses their weakness with discrete modalities, allowing the model to selectively propagate or forget information along the sequence length dimension depending on the current token. Second, even though this change prevents the use of efficient convolutions, we design a hardware-aware parallel algorithm in recurrent mode. We integrate these selective SSMs into a simplified end-to-end neural network architecture without attention or even MLP blocks (Mamba). Mamba enjoys fast inference (5× higher throughput than Transformers) and linear scaling in sequence length, and its performance improves on real data up to million-length sequences. As a general sequence model backbone, Mamba achieves state-of-the-art performance across several modalities such as language, audio, and genomics. On language modeling, our Mamba-3B model outperforms Transformers of the same size and matches Transformers twice its size, both in pretraining and downstream evaluation.

Tips:

  • Mamba is a new state space model architecture that rivals the classic Transformers. It is based on the line of progress on structured state space models, with an efficient hardware-aware design and implementation in the spirit of FlashAttention.
  • Mamba stacks mixer layers, which are the equivalent of Attention layers. The core logic of mamba is held in the MambaMixer class.
  • Two implementations cohabit: one is optimized and uses fast cuda kernels, while the other one is naive but can run on any device!
  • The current implementation leverages the original cuda kernels: the equivalent of flash attention for Mamba are hosted in the mamba-ssm and the causal_conv1d repositories. Make sure to install them if your hardware supports them!
  • Contributions to make the naive path faster are welcome 🤗

This model was contributed by ArthurZ. The original code can be found here.

Usage

A simple generation example:

from transformers import MambaConfig, MambaForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf")
model = MambaForCausalLM.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf")
input_ids = tokenizer("Hey how are you doing?", return_tensors= "pt")["input_ids"]

out = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=10)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(out))

Peft finetuning

The slow version is not very stable for training, and the fast one needs float32!

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a MambaModel. It is used to instantiate a MAMBA model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the MAMBA state-spaces/mamba-2.8b architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

Example:

>>> from transformers import MambaConfig, MambaModel

>>> # Initializing a Mamba configuration
>>> configuration = MambaConfig()

>>> # Initializing a model (with random weights) from the configuration
>>> model = MambaModel(configuration)

>>> # Accessing the model configuration
>>> configuration = model.config

MambaModel

class transformers.MambaModel

< >

( config )

Parameters

  • config (MambaConfig) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The bare MAMBA Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters

  • input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, input_ids_length)) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

    If cache_params.seqlen_offset>0, only input_ids that do not have their past calculated should be passed as input_ids.

    Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

    What are input IDs?

  • inputs_embeds (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size), optional) — Optionally, instead of passing input_ids you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert input_ids indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
  • cache_params (MambaCache, optional) — If passed along, the model uses the previous state in all the blocks (which will give the output for the input_ids provided as if the model add state_input_ids + input_ids as context).
  • use_cache (bool, optional) — If set to True, the cache_params is returned and can be used to quickly generate the next logits.
  • output_hidden_states (bool, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See hidden_states under returned tensors for more detail.
  • return_dict (bool, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
  • cache_position (torch.LongTensor of shape (sequence_length), optional) — Indices depicting the position of the input sequence tokens in the sequence. Contrarily to position_ids, this tensor is not affected by padding. It is used to update the cache in the correct position and to infer the complete sequence length.

Returns

transformers.models.mamba.modeling_mamba.MambaOutput or tuple(torch.FloatTensor)

A transformers.models.mamba.modeling_mamba.MambaOutput or a tuple of torch.FloatTensor (if return_dict=False is passed or when config.return_dict=False) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (MambaConfig) and inputs.

  • last_hidden_state (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)) — Sequence of hidden-states at the output of the last layer of the model.

  • cache_params (MambaCache) — The state of the model at the last time step. Can be used in a forward method with the next input_ids to avoid providing the old input_ids.

    Includes both the State space model state matrices after the selective scan, and the Convolutional states

  • hidden_states (tuple(torch.FloatTensor), optional, returned when output_hidden_states=True is passed or when config.output_hidden_states=True) — Tuple of torch.FloatTensor (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size).

    Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

The MambaModel forward method, overrides the __call__ special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the Module instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Example:

>>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, MambaModel
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf")
>>> model = MambaModel.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf")

>>> inputs = tokenizer("Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
>>> outputs = model(**inputs)

>>> last_hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)
