Fine-tuning Meta's LLaMA 2 with LoRA for Enhanced Question Answering
Introduction
Meta's Large Language Model (LLM), LLaMA 2, has been gaining significant attention due to its advanced architecture and potential for various natural language processing tasks. Fine-tuning LLMs for specialized tasks can significantly improve their performance, and one effective technique for this is Low Rank Adaptation (LoRA).
Prerequisites
To fine-tune LLaMA 2 with LoRA, you will need the following: * Access to a cloud computing platform (e.g., Google Colab) * A pre-trained LLaMA 2 model (e.g., LLaMA 2 6B) * A dataset for your specific question answering task * Python libraries for machine learning (e.g., PyTorch, Transformers)
Environment Setup
* Create a new project on Google Colab and mount the necessary datasets and libraries. * Install the required Python libraries and import them into your script.
Fine-tuning LLaMA 2 with LoRA
* Load the pre-trained LLaMA 2 model. * Create a LoRA adapter, which is a small network that is trained to adapt the LLM to your specific task. * Train the LoRA adapter on your question answering dataset. * Use the fine-tuned LLaMA 2 with LoRA for your question answering task.
