MindSpore Transformers (MindFormers)

1. Introduction

The MindSpore Transformers suite aims to build a comprehensive development toolkit covering the entire lifecycle of large-scale models, including pre-training, fine-tuning, evaluation, inference, and deployment. It provides industry-leading large Transformer-based language models, multimodal understanding models, and omni-modal models, enabling users to easily achieve end-to-end development of large-scale models.

Based on MindSpore's built-in multi-dimensional hybrid parallelism technology and modular design, the MindSpore Transformers suite offers the following features:

• Configurable one-click launch for pre-training, fine-tuning, evaluation, inference, and deployment of large-scale models.
• Integration with mainstream ecosystems such as Hugging Face, Megatron-LM, vLLM, and OpenCompass.
• Rich multi-dimensional hybrid parallelism and debugging/tuning capabilities, supporting training for trillion-parameter models.
• System-level deep optimization for training and inference, enhancing performance for hundred-billion dense and trillion sparse large-scale models.
• High availability in training, ensuring stable operation of large models on clusters with tens of thousands of NPUs.
• Fine-grained, multi-level training monitoring to facilitate anomaly detection and analysis.
• Simplified model integration through Mcore architecture upgrades and modular design, offering broader standardization and stronger ecosystem support.

⚠️EOL indicates that the model has been offline from the main branch and can be used with the latest supported version (e.g., 1.7.0).

The model maintenance strategy follows the Life Cycle And Version Matching Strategy of the corresponding latest supported version.

Model Level Introduction

The Mcore architecture model is divided into five levels for training and inference, respectively, representing different standards for model deployment. For details on the levels of different specifications of models in the library, please refer to the model documentation.

Training

• Released: Passed testing team verification, with loss and grad norm accuracy meeting benchmark alignment standards under deterministic conditions;
• Validated: Passed self-verification by the development team, with loss and grad norm accuracy meeting benchmark alignment standards under deterministic conditions;
• Preliminary: Passed preliminary self-verification by developers, with complete functionality and usability, normal convergence of training, but accuracy not strictly verified;
• Untested: Functionality is available but has not undergone systematic testing, with accuracy and convergence not verified, and support for user-defined development enablement;
• Community: Community-contributed MindSpore native models, developed and maintained by the community.

Inference

• Released: Passed testing team acceptance, with evaluation accuracy aligned with benchmark standards;
• Validated: Passed developer self-verification, with evaluation accuracy aligned with benchmark standards;
• Preliminary: Passed preliminary self-verification by developers, with complete functionality and usable for testing; inference outputs are logically consistent but accuracy has not been strictly verified;
• Untested: Functionality is available but has not undergone system testing; accuracy has not been verified; supports user-defined development enablement;
• Community: Community-contributed MindSpore native models, developed and maintained by the community.

If it needs to be used, the user should be responsible for transforming it into a product suitable for commercial use and ensuring security protection. MindSpore Transformers does not assume security responsibility for the resulting security problems.
2. Regarding datasets, MindSpore Transformers only provides suggestions for datasets that can be used for training. MindSpore Transformers does not provide any datasets. Users who use any dataset for training must ensure the legality and security of the training data and assume the following risks:
   1. Data poisoning: Maliciously tampered training data may cause the model to produce bias, security vulnerabilities, or incorrect outputs.
   2. Data compliance: Users must ensure that data collection and processing comply with relevant laws, regulations, and privacy protection requirements.
3. If you do not want your dataset to be mentioned in MindSpore Transformers, or if you want to update the description of your dataset in MindSpore Transformers, please submit an issue to AtomGit, and we will remove or update the description of your dataset according to your issue request. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and contribution to MindSpore Transformers.
4. Regarding model weights, users must verify the authenticity of downloaded and distributed model weights from trusted sources. MindSpore Transformers cannot guarantee the security of third-party weights. Weight files may be tampered with during transmission or loading, leading to unexpected model outputs or security vulnerabilities. Users should assume the risk of using third-party weights and ensure that weight files are verified for security before use.
5. Regarding weights, vocabularies, scripts, and other files downloaded from sources like openmind, users must verify the authenticity of downloaded and distributed model weights from trusted sources. MindSpore Transformers cannot guarantee the security of third-party files. Users should assume the risks arising from unexpected functional issues, outputs, or security vulnerabilities when using these files.
6. MindSpore Transformers saves weights or logs based on the path set by the user. Users should avoid using system file directories when configuring paths. If unexpected system issues arise due to improper path settings, users shall bear the risks themselves.
