AutoAWQ is an easy-to-use package for 4-bit quantized models. AutoAWQ speeds up models by 2x while reducing memory requirements by 3x compared to FP16. AutoAWQ implements the Activation-aware Weight Quantization (AWQ) algorithm for quantizing LLMs.  AutoAWQ was created and improved upon from the [original work](https://github.com/mit-han-lab/llm-awq) from MIT.

*Latest News* 🔥
- [2023/09] 1.6x-2.5x speed boost on fused models (now including MPT and Falcon). LLaMa 7B - up to 180 tokens/s.
- [2023/09] Multi-GPU support, bug fixes, and better benchmark scripts available
- [2023/08] PyPi package released and AutoModel class available

## Install

Requirements: 
- Compute Capability 8.0 (sm80). Ampere and later architectures are supported.
- CUDA Toolkit 11.8 and later.

---

Install:
- Use pip to install awq

```
pip install autoawq
```

### Using conda

CUDA dependencies can be hard to manage sometimes. It is recommended to use conda with AutoAWQ:

```
conda create --name autoawq python=3.10 -y
conda activate autoawq
conda install pytorch=2.0.1 torchvision torchaudio cudatoolkit=11.8 -c pytorch -c nvidia
pip install autoawq
```

### Build source

<details>

<summary>Build AutoAWQ from scratch</summary>

Build time can take 10 minutes. Download your model while you install AutoAWQ.

```
git clone https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ
cd AutoAWQ
pip install -e .
```

## Usage

Under examples, you can find examples of how to quantize, run inference, and benchmark AutoAWQ models.

<details>

<summary>Quantization</summary>

```python
from awq import AutoAWQForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer

model_path = 'lmsys/vicuna-7b-v1.5'
quant_path = 'vicuna-7b-v1.5-awq'
quant_config = { "zero_point": True, "q_group_size": 128, "w_bit": 4 }

# Load model
model = AutoAWQForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_path)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path, trust_remote_code=True)

# Quantize
model.quantize(tokenizer, quant_config=quant_config)

# Save quantized model
model.save_quantized(quant_path)
tokenizer.save_pretrained(quant_path)
```

</details>

<details>

<summary>Inference</summary>

```python
from awq import AutoAWQForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, TextStreamer

quant_path = "casperhansen/vicuna-7b-v1.5-awq"
quant_file = "awq_model_w4_g128.pt"

# Load model
model = AutoAWQForCausalLM.from_quantized(quant_path, quant_file, fuse_layers=True)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(quant_path, trust_remote_code=True)
streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer, skip_special_tokens=True)

# Convert prompt to tokens
prompt_template = """\
A chat between a curious user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions.

USER: {prompt}
ASSISTANT:"""

tokens = tokenizer(
    prompt_template.format(prompt="How are you today?"), 
    return_tensors='pt'
).input_ids.cuda()

# Generate output
generation_output = model.generate(
    tokens, 
    streamer=streamer,
    max_new_tokens=512
)
```
