# Mamba

[Mamba](https://huggingface.co/papers/2312.00752) is a selective structured state space model (SSMs) designed to work around Transformers computational inefficiency when dealing with long sequences.  It is a completely attention-free architecture, and comprised of a combination of H3 and gated MLP blocks (Mamba block). Mamba's "content-based reasoning" allows it to focus on specific parts of an input depending on the current token. Mamba also uses a new hardware-aware parallel algorithm to compensate for the lack of convolutional operations. As a result, Mamba has fast inference and can scale to very long sequences.

You can find all the original Mamba checkpoints under the [State Space Models](https://huggingface.co/state-spaces) organization.

The example below demonstrates how to generate text with [`Pipeline`], [`AutoModel`], and from the command line.

<hfoptions id="usage">
<hfoption id="Pipeline">

```python
from transformers import pipeline


pipeline = pipeline(
    task="text-generation",
    model="state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf",
    device=0
)
pipeline("Plants create energy through a process known as")
```

</hfoption>
<hfoption id="AutoModel">

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer


tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf", device_map="auto")
input_ids = tokenizer("Plants create energy through a process known as", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

output = model.generate(**input_ids)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
```

Quantization reduces the memory burden of large models by representing the weights in a lower precision. Refer to the [Quantization](../quantization/overview) overview for more available quantization backends.

The example below uses [torchao](../quantization/torchao) to only quantize the weights to 4-bit integers.

```python
from torchao.quantization import Int4WeightOnlyConfig

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, TorchAoConfig


quantization_config = Int4WeightOnlyConfig(group_size=128)
quantization_config = TorchAoConfig(quant_type=quant_config)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-2.8b-hf")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("state-spaces/mamba-2.8b-hf", quantization_config=quantization_config, device_map="auto")
input_ids = tokenizer("Plants create energy through a process known as", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

output = model.generate(**input_ids)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
```

## Notes

- The current implementation uses the original CUDA kernels. The FlashAttention equivalent implementation is hosted in the [mamba-ssm](https://github.com/state-spaces/mamba) and [causal_conv1d](https://github.com/Dao-AILab/causal-conv1d) repositories. Make sure to install them if your hardware supports it!
- Mamba stacks `mixer` layers which are equivalent to `Attention` layers. You can find the main logic of Mamba in the `MambaMixer` class.
- The example below demonstrates how to fine-tune Mamba with [PEFT](https://huggingface.co/docs/peft).

  ```py
  from datasets import load_dataset
  from trl import SFTConfig, SFTTrainer
  from peft import LoraConfig

  model_id = "state-spaces/mamba-130m-hf"
  dataset = load_dataset("Abirate/english_quotes", split="train")
  training_args = SFTConfig(dataset_text_field="quote")
  lora_config =  LoraConfig(target_modules=["x_proj", "embeddings", "in_proj", "out_proj"])
  trainer = SFTTrainer(
      model=model_id,
      args=training_args,
      train_dataset=dataset,
      peft_config=lora_config,
  )
  trainer.train()
   ```
