Phi-3 conversation format, example training script and perplexity metric

[brianfitzgerald]

Adds phi-3 conversation template, and example script, to demonstrate how to fine-tune with Alpaca-format datasets with the Phi-3 pretraining format.

I've also added a Perplexity metric, which I ended up writing a variant of the Huggingface evaluate Perplexity metric, as that implementation both re-tokenizes and loads a separate copy of the LLM within the metric. Instead, this uses the already-loaded model and tokenizer, and the already-tokenized validation samples as the parameters for scoring perplexity.

How has this been tested?

Trained an example LoRA with the provided config.
Unit test is provided for the Perplexity metric.

Full list of changes

• Added Phi-3 example script.
• Added Phi-3 conversation template.
• Added Phi-3 Alpaca prompt format.
• Added Perplexity metric, and unit test.
• Fixed an issue with caching dataset splits when the split_size is >1, i.e. a no. of samples.

Thanks for the review!

Amazing! 👍

I can help get the tests/linter passing tomorrow

[winglian]

@brianfitzgerald Made some additional fixes, can you check to see if everything still seems correct? thanks!

LGTM!

This LGTM but I was testing it out and there might be an issue with Phi-3 and flash-attention. On 4xA100s node I have a warning is obtained when training Phi-3 (ONLY on Phi-3 this error occurs tested different models too).

[2024-05-23 14:20:16,328] [WARNING] [transformers_modules.microsoft.Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct.5fa34190089f0ee40f9cce3cafc396b89b2e5e83[99/1823]_phi3.warning_once:329] [PID:1805189] You are not running the flash-attention implementation, expect numerical differences.

This might be related to huggingface/transformers#30547

I tried out this branch and seem to have run into an issue where it hangs forever when tokenizing prompts at the start of a training run. It gets through a few then hangs on a dataset of size 1.

Control+C is very slow/hangs as well. Need to do it twice.

Btw, my issue here got resolved when I turned off sample packing. Maybe Phi-3 sample packing with Flash-Attention isn't compatible. @brianfitzgerald
