A python library for highly configurable transformers - easing model architecture search and experimentation. It is premised on building small and independent modules that enables users to configure custom transformer architectures.

Special thanks to lucidrains (https://github.com/lucidrains) and Kharr.

Usage

Quick demo that will configure a 768-wide, 12-layer transformer, with a language modeling head.

Import, and create token embedding block:

import torch
from model_builder import ConfigaFormer

emb = []
model_dim = 768

emb.append({'type': 'embedding',
            'output_dim': model_dim,
            'num_classes': 50257})

Create self-attention module:

attn = []

# Make residual and norm
attn.append({'type': 'make_stream', 'output_name': 'residual'})
attn.append({'type': 'norm', 'norm_type': 'layer_norm'})

# Make QKVs
attn.append({'type': 'linear', 'output_name': 'queries'})
attn.append({'type': 'linear', 'output_name': 'keys'})
attn.append({'type': 'linear', 'output_name': 'values'})

attn.append({'type': 'make_heads', 'input_name': 'queries', 'output_name': 'queries', 'num_heads': 12})
attn.append({'type': 'make_heads', 'input_name': 'keys', 'output_name': 'keys', 'num_heads': 12})

attn.append({'type': 'rope', 'input_name': 'queries', 'output_name': 'queries', 'rotate_dim': 16})
attn.append({'type': 'rope', 'input_name': 'keys', 'output_name': 'keys', 'rotate_dim': 16})

# Perform attention
attn.append({'type': 'mha_dots',
             'input_name_queries': 'queries',
             'input_name_keys': 'keys'})
attn.append({'type': 'attention_offset'})
attn.append({'type': 'mha_sum',
             'input_name_values': 'values'})

# Mix
attn.append({'type': 'linear'})

# Add residual
attn.append({'type': 'merge_streams',
             'input_name_1': 'residual',
             'merge_type': 'add'})

Create FFN module:

ffn = []

# Make residual and norm
ffn.append({'type': 'make_stream', 'output_name': 'residual'})
ffn.append({'type': 'norm', 'norm_type': 'layer_norm'})

# Proj Up
ffn.append({'type': 'linear', 'output_dim': 768*4})

# Activation
ffn.append({'type': 'activation'})

# Proj Down
ffn.append({'type': 'linear', 'output_dim': 768})

# Add residual
ffn.append({'type': 'merge_streams',
             'input_name_1': 'residual',
             'merge_type': 'add'})

Create language modeling head:

to_logits = []
to_logits.append({'type': 'linear', 'output_dim': 50257})

Create blocks, initialize input shapes, and init the model:

transformer_block = attn + ffn
classifier = ffn + to_logits

blocks = [{"config": emb,
           "repeat": 1},
          {"config": transformer_block,
           "repeat": 12},
          {"config": classifier,
           "repeat": 1},
          ]
          
my_config = {'blocks' = blocks}
input_streams = {'emb_ids': ['B', 'L_in'],
                 'attn_offset': ['B', 12, 'L_in', 'L_in'],}

model = ConfigaFormer(model_config=my_config,
                     input_streams=input_streams).cuda()

This will print out the transformer config:

Block #1, 1x
embedding -> Input(s): emb_ids (BSZ, L_in) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)


Block #2, 12x

mha_dots -> Input(s): queries (BSZ, 12, L_in, 64), keys (BSZ, 12, L_in, 64) - Output(s): attn_dots (BSZ, 12, L_in, L_in)

merge_streams -> Input(s): residual (BSZ, L_in, 768), x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)
make_stream -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): residual (BSZ, L_in, 768)
norm -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)
linear -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072)
activation -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072)
linear -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)
merge_streams -> Input(s): residual (BSZ, L_in, 768), x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)


Block #3, 1x
make_stream -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): residual (BSZ, L_in, 768)
norm -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)
linear -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072)
activation -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072)
linear -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 3072) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)
merge_streams -> Input(s): residual (BSZ, L_in, 768), x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768)
linear -> Input(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 768) - Output(s): x (BSZ, L_in, 50257)

Before running, we need to get the attention offset (in this case, AliBi with a causal mask):

from attention_offset_module import get_alibi

attn_offset = get_alibi(num_heads=12)

Now we can use the model:

input_data = {'emb_ids': batch_ids.view(bsz, 1024).cuda(),
              'attn_offset': attn_offset.cuda()}

logits = model(input_data)['x'].view(bsz, 1024, 50257)
