SpikeGPT: Generative Pre-trained Language Model with Spiking Neural Networks

SpikeGPT is a lightweight generative language model with pure binary, event-driven spiking activation units. The arxiv paper of SpikeGPT can be found here.

This repo is inspired by the RWKV-LM.

Training on Enwik8

  1. Download the enwik8 dataset.
  2. Run train.py

Inference with Prompt

You can choose to run inference with either your own customized model or with our pre-trained model. Our pre-trained model on BookCorpus is available here. This model only trained 900M tokens on BookCorpus.

  1. Modify the hyper-parameter of the network, which could be found in line 36-38 of the run.py:
# For BookCorpus pre-trained model, you can change it if you trained your own model.
n_layer = 18
n_embd = 512
ctx_len = 1024
  1. download our BookCorpus pre-trained model, and put it in the root directory of this repo.
  2. Modify the 'context' variable in run.py to your custom prompt
  3. Run run.py
