Model Summary

The Narrow Transformer (NT) model NT-Java-1.1B is an open-source specialized code model built by extending pre-training on starcoderbase-1b, designed for code related tasks in Java programming. The model is a decoder-only transformer with Multi-Query-Attention and a context length of 8192 tokens. The model has been trained with Java subset of the starcoderdata dataset, which is ~22B tokens.

Use

Intended use

Large code models require specialized hardware like GPUs for inference, highlighting the need for research into building small code models that can be deployed on developer desktops. This model addresses the gap by focusing on the development of a small Java code model and introducing a quantized version of NT-Java-1.1B, which performs comparably to open 1.1B models on MultiPL-E Java code benchmarks, making it ideal for desktop deployment.

Generation

# pip install -q transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

checkpoint = "infosys/NT-Java-1.1B"
device = "cuda" # for GPU usage or "cpu" for CPU usage

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(checkpoint)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(checkpoint).to(device)

inputs = tokenizer.encode("public class HelloWorld {\n    public static void main(String[] args) {", return_tensors="pt").to(device)
outputs = model.generate(inputs)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))

Attribution & Other Requirements

The pretraining dataset of the model was filtered for permissive licenses only. Nevertheless, the model can generate source code verbatim from the dataset. The code's license might require attribution and/or other specific requirements that must be respected. We provide a search index that let's you search through the pretraining data to identify where generated code came from and apply the proper attribution to your code.

Benefits

Large code models require specialized hardware like GPUs for inference, highlighting the need for research into building small code models that can be deployed on developer desktops. This model addresses the gap by focusing on the development of a small Java code model and introducing a quantized version (in different forms like GGML, GGUF) of NT-Java-1.1B, which performs comparably to open 1.1B models on MultiPL-E Java code benchmarks, making it ideal for desktop deployment.

Limitations

The model, NT-Java-1.1B, has been trained on publicly available datasets and comes without any safety guarantees. Due to this, like all Language Models, its outputs cannot be reliably predicted and sometimes the generated code is not guaranteed to work as intended. It can also be inefficient and may contain bugs or exploits. Therefore, it's crucial for users and developers to conduct thorough safety testing and implement filtering mechanisms tailored to their needs.
