an eerie sense that something is just not right…
Between the two worlds lies The Forgotten Kingdom - home to creatures
long since thought extinct and ancient magic so strong it defies belief!
Only here can you find what has been lost for centuries: An Elixir Of
Life which will restore youth and vitality if only those who seek its
power are brave enough to face up against all manner of dangers lurking
in this mysterious land! But beware; some say there may even exist
powerful entities beyond our comprehension whose intentions towards
humanity remain unclear at best ---- they might want nothing more than
destruction itself rather then anything else from their quest after
immortality (and maybe someone should tell them about modern medicine)?
In any event though – one thing remains true regardless : whether or not
success comes easy depends entirely upon how much effort we put into
conquering whatever challenges lie ahead along with having faith deep
down inside ourselves too ;) So let’s get started now shall We?

Function Calling Yi Models
The function calling Yi series of models offers 200k context length in a 6B (here) and 34B (here) parameter model.
- The 6B model is recommended if you want a faster model for function calling on long context.
- The 34B model is more accurate in handling responses requiring a combination of of function calls and standard responses.
Recent Updates
- Nov 15th 2023 -> added Yi 200k context models in 6B and 34B form.
- Nov 8th 2023 -> added Zephyr beta, an improved version of Mistral 7B (achieved via DPO)
- November 6th 2023 -> added Deepseek Coder 1.3B, 6.7B and 33B
- October 11th 2023 -> added Mistral 7B with function calling
- October 11th 2023 -> new models pushed, trained on an improved underlying dataset
Improvements with v2
- Shortened syntax: Only function descriptions are needed for inference and no added instruction is required.
- Function descriptions are moved outside of the system prompt. This avoids the behaviour of function calling being affected by how the system prompt had been trained to influence the model.

Performance and Tips
- Larger models are better at handling function calling. The cross entropy training losses are approximately 0.5 for 7B, 0.4 for 13B, 0.3 for 70B. The absolute numbers don't mean anything but the relative values offer a sense of relative performance.
- Provide very clear function descriptions, including whether the arguments are required or what the default values should be.
- Make sure to post-process the language model's response to check that all necessary information is provided by the user. If not, prompt the user to let them know they need to provide more info (e.g. their name, order number etc.)

Licensing
Llama-7B with function calling is licensed according to the Meta Community license.
Mistral-7B, Llama-13B, Code-llama-34b, Llama-70B and Falcon-180B with function calling require the purchase of access.
- Commercial license purchase required per user.
- Licenses are not transferable to other users/entities.
Use of all Llama models with function calling is further subject to terms in the Meta license.
Yi models are subject to the Yi license, which permits commercial use as of Nov 15th 2023.
Zephr models were generated using Ultrachat, which relies on openai. OpenAI does not permit the use of it's models to train competitive models. This makes it unclear as to whether Zephyr may be used commercial. Buyers/users do so at their sole risk.
Dataset
The dataset used for training this model can be found at Trelis Function Calling Extended Dataset.
Inference
!!! Make sure to check the prompt format below and adjust inference accordingly !!!
Quick Start in Google Colab Try out this notebook fLlama_Inference notebook
Commercial Applications You can this model with text-generation-interface and chat-ui
Here is the github for setup
And here is a video showing it working with llama-2-7b-chat-hf-function-calling-v2 (note that we've now moved to v2)
Note that you'll still need to code the server-side handling of making the function calls (which obviously depends on what functions you want to use).
Run on your laptop Run on your laptop video and juypter notebook
After running llama.cpp server, you can call the server with this command, with thanks to @jdo300:
import requests
import json
# Define the roles and markers
B_FUNC, E_FUNC = "<FUNCTIONS>", "</FUNCTIONS>\n\n"
B_INST, E_INST = "[INST] ", " [/INST]" #Llama style
# B_INST, E_INST = "\n### Instruction:\n", "\n### Response:\n" #DeepSeek Coder Style
# B_INST, E_INST = "Human: ", " Assistant: " #Yi Style
# Define the function metadata
function_metadata = {
"function": "search_bing",
"description": "Search the web for content on Bing. This allows users to search online/the internet/the web for content.",
"arguments": [
{
"name": "query",
"type": "string",
"description": "The search query string"
}
]
}
# Define the user prompt
user_prompt = 'Search for the latest news on AI.'
# Format the function list and prompt
function_list = json.dumps(function_metadata, indent=4)
prompt = f"{B_FUNC}{function_list.strip()}{E_FUNC}{B_INST}{user_prompt.strip()}{E_INST}\n\n"
# Define the API endpoint
url = "http:/localhost:8080/completion"
# Send the POST request to the API server
response = requests.post(url, json={"prompt": prompt})
# Print the response
print(response.json())
Syntax
Prompt Templates
The function descriptions must be wrapped within a function block. You can put this function below before or after the system message block.
Example without a system message:
# Define the roles and markers
B_FUNC, E_FUNC = "<FUNCTIONS>", "</FUNCTIONS>\n\n"
B_INST, E_INST = "[INST] ", " [/INST]" #Llama style
# B_INST, E_INST = "\n### Instruction:\n", "\n### Response:\n" #DeepSeek Coder Style
# B_INST, E_INST = "Human: ", " Assistant: " #Yi Style
functionList = {function_1_metadata}{function_2_metadata}...
user_prompt = '...'
# Format your prompt template
prompt = f"{B_FUNC}{functionList.strip()}{E_FUNC}{B_INST}{user_prompt.strip()}{E_INST}\n\n"
Example with a system message:
# Define the roles and markers
B_FUNC, E_FUNC = "<FUNCTIONS>", "</FUNCTIONS>\n\n"
B_INST, E_INST = "[INST] ", " [/INST]" #Llama style
# B_INST, E_INST = "\n### Instruction:\n", "\n### Response:\n" #DeepSeek Coder Style
# B_INST, E_INST = "Human: ", " Assistant: " #Yi Style
B_SYS, E_SYS = "<<SYS>>\n", "\n<</SYS>>\n\n"
# assuming functionList is defined as above
system_prompt = '...'
user_prompt = '...'
# Format your prompt template
prompt = f"{B_FUNC}{functionList.strip()}{E_FUNC}{B_INST}{B_SYS}{system_prompt.strip()}{E_SYS}{user_prompt.strip()}{E_INST}\n\n"
Notice that the function block is placed at the very start of the sequence, before 'B_INST'.
Function Metadata Template
functionMetadata should be a string representation of a JSON object, like this:
"functionMetadata": {
"function": "search_bing",
"description": "Search the web for content on Bing. This allows users to search online/the internet/the web for content.",
"arguments": [
{
"name": "query",
"type": "string",
"description": "The search query string"
}
]
}
'''
and the language model should respond with a json object formatted like this:
{
"function": "function_name",
"arguments": {
"argument1": "argument_value",
"argument2": "argument_value"
}
}
It is recommended to handle cases where:
- There is no json object in the response
- The response contains text in addition to the json response
Sample functionList
{
"function": "search_bing",
"description": "Search the web for content on Bing. This allows users to search online/the internet/the web for content.",
"arguments": [
{
"name": "query",
"type": "string",
"description": "The search query string"
}
]
}
{
"function": "search_arxiv",
"description": "Search for research papers on ArXiv. Make use of AND, OR and NOT operators as appropriate to join terms within the query.",
"arguments": [
{
"name": "query",
"type": "string",
"description": "The search query string"
}
]
}
Training Set Argument Types
Models were fine-tuned on argument types including strings, numbers and arrays. The training set includes function calls with 0, 1, 2 or 3 arguments. The larger the model the better it will generalise beyond these types.
Here is a function call with an array:
{ "function": "delete_file", "arguments": { "fileNames": [ "Dissecting Transformer Length Extrapolation via The Lens of Receptive Field Analysis", "Luna- Linear Unified Nested Attention", "Substack_Inc_2021_2020_GAAP_Audited_Financials" ] } }
Here is a function call with three arguments:
{ "function": "save_chat", "arguments": { "fileName": "KiteDiscussion", "fileDescription": "Notes on one and two stringed kites", "fileContent": "--- **Types of Kite** There are one and two string kites. The two string ones are easier to control, although you can get the cords tangled. The one-stringed ones are sometimes used for kite fights, and you lose the kite and have to run after it if the string breaks. ---" } }

While benchmarking open-source models, we have observed a disparity between the results generated by our pipeline and those reported in public sources (e.g. OpenCompass). Upon conducting a more in-depth investigation of this difference, we have discovered that various models may employ different prompts, post-processing strategies, and sampling techniques, potentially resulting in significant variations in the outcomes. Our prompt and post-processing strategy remains consistent with the original benchmark, and greedy decoding is employed during evaluation without any post-processing for the generated content. For scores that were not reported by the original authors (including scores reported with different settings), we try to get results with our pipeline.
To evaluate the model's capability extensively, we adopted the methodology outlined in Llama2. Specifically, we included PIQA, SIQA, HellaSwag, WinoGrande, ARC, OBQA, and CSQA to assess common sense reasoning. SquAD, QuAC, and BoolQ were incorporated to evaluate reading comprehension. CSQA was exclusively tested using a 7-shot setup, while all other tests were conducted with a 0-shot configuration. Additionally, we introduced GSM8K (8-shot@1), MATH (4-shot@1), HumanEval (0-shot@1), and MBPP (3-shot@1) under the category "Math & Code". Due to technical constraints, we did not test Falcon-180 on QuAC and OBQA; the score is derived by averaging the scores on the remaining tasks. Since the scores for these two tasks are generally lower than the average, we believe that Falcon-180B's performance was not underestimated.
Usage
Please visit our github repository for general guidance on how to use this model.
Disclaimer
Although we use data compliance checking algorithms during the training process to ensure the compliance of the trained model to the best of our ability, due to the complexity of the data and the diversity of language model usage scenarios, we cannot guarantee that the model will generate correct and reasonable output in all scenarios. Please be aware that there is still a risk of the model producing problematic outputs. We will not be responsible for any risks and issues resulting from misuse, misguidance, illegal usage, and related misinformation, as well as any associated data security concerns.
