This repository contains the code, data, and models pertaining to our ICLR 2024 accepted paper "In-context Autoencoder for Context Compression in a Large Language Model", which was initially announced on arXiv in July 2023 here.

• Model
• Data

Add pretrain.py, instruction_finetune.py and training_utils.py to icae_v2/, which can be used to train the ICAE.

Two new ICAE models based on Mistral-7B were released. These include a pretrained model an instruction fine-tuned model. The inference code accompanying these models is also provided.

Compared with the V1 released model, the Mistral-7B ICAE models extend support to multi-span concatenation, as illustrated in Figure 6 of the paper. Also, they extend the max input length to 5120.

In the release of V2, I move the dataset and models to my huggingface repo.

One can simply try the released ICAE models by running:

# transformers >= 4.36.2 is required
cd icae/code/icae_v2
# run the instruction fine-tuned ICAE model
bash fine_tuned_inference_script.sh
# Or run the pretrained ICAE model
bash pretrained_inference_script.sh

This is the original release of the In-context Autoencoder repository. This particular iteration includes the PwC dataset, the code, and a fine-tuned ICAE model based on Llama-2-7b-chat that is used in the paper.

The first version of the ICAE model is based in the Llama-2-7b-chat, which is used in the paper. It can be downloaded from this link. Please use the model with the code available in the code/icae_v1 directory.
