[FEATURE] Add Support For `TextGenerationPipeline`
Problem Statement
At present, we have support for StableDiffusionPipelines
but lack support for TextGenerationPipeline
. This limitation hampers the workflow of working with Pruna, as we need to manually encode and decode all inputs and outputs. This not only adds complexity but also slows down the development process.
Solution Overview
We propose to add support for TextGenerationPipeline
in Pruna, mirroring the flow outlined in the Pruna documentation. This will enable seamless integration with Pruna, making it easier to work with the library.
Solution Details
To achieve this, we will follow a similar approach as outlined in the Pruna documentation. We will create a TextGenerationPipeline
object using the pipeline
function from the transformers
library. This object will be used to generate text based on a given input.
Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates the proposed solution:
from transformers import pipeline
# Create a TextGenerationPipeline object
pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
# Define a list of messages
messages = [
{"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
# Use the pipeline to generate text
output = pipe(messages, max_new_tokens=100)
print(output)
Pruna Integration
Once we have the TextGenerationPipeline
object, we can integrate it with Pruna using the SmashConfig
and smash
functions. This will enable us to quantize the model and reduce its size while maintaining its accuracy.
Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates the Pruna integration:
from pruna import SmashConfig
# Create a SmashConfig object
smash_config = SmashConfig(device="mps")
smash_config["quantizer"] = "hqq"
# Use the smash function to quantize the model
smashed_model = smash(
model=pipe,
smash_config=smash_config,
)
