Inputs

Lora parameters

LoRA reduces the number of trainable parameters by learning pairs of rank-decompostion matrices while freezing the original weights. This vastly reduces the storage requirement for large language models adapted to specific tasks and enables efficient task-switching during deployment all without introducing inference latency. LoRA also outperforms several other adaptation methods including adapter, prefix-tuning, and fine-tuning. Currently, LoRA is supported for gpt2, bert, roberta, deberta, distilbert, t5, bart, mbart and camembert model families

Deepspeed Parameters Deepspeed config is a JSON file that can be used to configure optimizer, scheduler, batch size and other training related parameters. A default deepspeed config is used when apply_deepspeed is set to true. Alternatively, you can pass your custom deepspeed config. Please follow the deepspeed docs to create the custom config. Please note that to enable deepspeed, apply_deepspeed must be set to true, only passing the deepspeed input will not suffice
