The model is deployed in an AWS secure environment and under your virtual private cloud (VPC) controls, helping to support data security.

Prerequisites

To try out both NeMo models in SageMaker JumpStart, you will need the following prerequisites:

Discover Mistral NeMo models in SageMaker JumpStart

You can access NeMo models through SageMaker JumpStart in the SageMaker Studio UI and the SageMaker Python SDK. In this section, we go over how to discover the models in SageMaker Studio.

SageMaker Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) that provides a single web-based visual interface where you can access purpose-built tools to perform ML development steps, from preparing data to building, training, and deploying your ML models. For more details on how to get started and set up SageMaker Studio, see Amazon SageMaker Studio.

In SageMaker Studio, you can access SageMaker JumpStart by choosing JumpStart in the navigation pane.

Mistral-NeMo-Instruct-2407 and Mistral-NeMo-Base-2407 are now available on SageMaker JumpStart

Then choose HuggingFace.

From the SageMaker JumpStart landing page, you can search for NeMo in the search box. The search results will list Mistral NeMo Instruct and Mistral NeMo Base.

You can choose the model card to view details about the model such as license, data used to train, and how to use the model. You will also find the Deploy button to deploy the model and create an endpoint.

Deploy the model in SageMaker JumpStart

Deployment starts when you choose the Deploy button. After deployment finishes, you will see that an endpoint is created. You can test the endpoint by passing a sample inference request payload or by selecting the testing option using the SDK. When you select the option to use the SDK, you will see example code that you can use in the notebook editor of your choice in SageMaker Studio.

Deploy the model with the SageMaker Python SDK

To deploy using the SDK, we start by selecting the Mistral NeMo Base model, specified by the model_id with the value huggingface-llm-mistral-nemo-base-2407. You can deploy your choice of the selected models on SageMaker with the following code. Similarly, you can deploy NeMo Instruct using its own model ID.

from sagemaker.jumpstart.model import JumpStartModel

accept_eula = True

model = JumpStartModel(model_id="huggingface-llm-mistral-nemo-base-2407")
predictor = model.deploy(accept_eula=accept_eula)

This deploys the model on SageMaker with default configurations, including the default instance type and default VPC configurations. You can change these configurations by specifying non-default values in AWS service quotas to request a service quota increase. After it’s deployed, you can run inference against the deployed endpoint through the SageMaker predictor:

payload = {
    "messages": [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "Hello"
        }
    ],
    "max_tokens": 1024,
    "temperature": 0.3,
    "top_p": 0.9,
}

response = predictor.predict(payload)['choices'][0]['message']['content'].strip()
print(response)

An important thing to note here is that we’re using the djl-lmi v12 inference container, so we’re following the large model inference chat completions API schema when sending a payload to both Mistral-NeMo-Base-2407 and Mistral-NeMo-Instruct-2407.

Mistral-NeMo-Base-2407

You can interact with the Mistral-NeMo-Base-2407 model like other standard text generation models, where the model processes an input sequence and outputs predicted next words in the sequence. In this section, we provide some example prompts and sample output. Keep in mind that the base model is not instruction fine-tuned.

Text completion

Tasks involving predicting the next token or filling in missing tokens in a sequence:

payload = {
    "messages": [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "The capital of France is ___."
        }
    ],
    "max_tokens": 10,
    "temperature": 0.3,
    "top_p": 0.9,
}

response = predictor.predict(payload)['choices'][0]['message']['content'].strip()
print(response)

The following is the output:

Paris
The capital of France is Paris.

Mistral NeMo Instruct

The Mistral-NeMo-Instruct-2407 model is a quick demonstration that the base model can be fine-tuned to achieve compelling performance. You can follow the steps provided to deploy the model and use the model_id value of huggingface-llm-mistral-nemo-instruct-2407 instead.

The instruction-tuned NeMo model can be tested with the following tasks:

Code generation

Mistral NeMo Instruct demonstrates benchmarked strengths for coding tasks. Mistral states that their Tekken tokenizer for NeMo is approximately 30% more efficient at compressing source code. For example, see the following code:

payload = {
    "messages": [
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": """Create a Binary Search Tree class with methods for insertion, searching, and in-order traversal."""
        }
    ],
    "max_tokens": 2048,
    "temperature": 0.3,
    "top_p": 0.9,
}
text_response = predictor.predict(payload)['choices'][0]['message']['content'].strip()
tokens = predictor.predict(payload)['usage']
print(text_response)
print(tokens)

The following is the output:

class Node:
    def __init__(self, key):
        self.key = key
        self.left = None
        self.right = None

class BinarySearchTree:
    def __init__(self):
        self.root = None

    def insert(self, key):
        if not self.root:
            self.root = Node(key)
        else:
            self._insert(self.root, key)

    def _insert(self, node, key):
        if key < node.key:
            if node.left:
                self._insert(node.left, key)
            else:
                node.left = Node(key)
        elif key > node.key:
            if node.right:
                self._insert(node.right, key)
            else:
                node.right = Node(key)

    def search(self, key):
        return self._search(self.root, key)

    def _search(self, node, key):
        if not node or node.key == key:
            return node

        if key < node.key:
            return self._search(node.left, key)
        else:
            return self._search(node.right, key)

    def inorder_traversal(self):
        self._inorder_traversal(self.root)
        print()

    def _inorder_traversal(self, node):
        if node:
            self._inorder_traversal(node.left)
            print(node.key, end=" ")
            self._inorder_traversal(node.right)

# Example usage:
bst = BinarySearchTree()
bst.insert(50)
bst.insert(30)
bst.insert(20)
bst.insert(40)
bst.insert(70)
bst.insert(60)
bst.insert(80)

print("In-order traversal:")
bst.inorder_traversal()  # Output: 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

print(f"Search 40: {bst.search(40).key if bst.search(40) else 'Not found'}")
print(f"Search 90: {bst.search(90).key if bst.search(90) else 'Not found'}")
{'prompt_tokens': 22, 'completion_tokens': 433, 'total_tokens': 455}

The model demonstrates strong performance on code generation tasks, with the completion_tokens offering insight into how the tokenizer’s code compression effectively optimizes the representation of programming languages using fewer tokens.

Advanced math and reasoning

The model also reports strengths in mathematic and reasoning accuracy. For example, see the following code:

payload = {
    "messages": [
        {   "role": "system",
            "content": "You are an expert in mathematics and reasoning. Your role is to provide examples, explanations, and insights related to mathematical concepts, problem-solving techniques, and logical reasoning.",
            "role": "user",
            "content": """Calculating the orbital period of an exoplanet:
             Given: An exoplanet orbits its star at a distance of 2.5 AU (Astronomical Units). The star has a mass of 1.2 solar masses.
             Task: Calculate the orbital period of the exoplanet in Earth years."""
        }
    ],
    "max_tokens": 2048,
    "temperature": 0.3,
    "top_p": 0.9,
}
response = predictor.predict(payload)['choices'][0]['message']['content'].strip()
print(response)

The following is the output:

To calculate the orbital period of an exoplanet, we can use Kepler's Third Law, which states that the square of the orbital period (P) is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (a) of the orbit and inversely proportional to the mass (M) of the central body. The formula is:

P^2 = (4 * π^2 * a^3) / (G * M)

where:
- P is the orbital period in years,
- a is the semi-major axis in AU (Astronomical Units),
- G is the gravitational constant (6.67430 × 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2),
- M is the mass of the star in solar masses.

First, we need to convert the mass of the star from solar masses to kilograms. The mass of the Sun is approximately 1.98847 × 10^30 kg. So, the mass of the star is:

M = 1.2 * 1.98847 × 10^30 kg = 2.386164 × 10^30 kg

Now, we can plug the values into Kepler's Third Law:

P^2 = (4 * π^2 * (2.5 AU)^3) / (G * M)

Since 1 AU is approximately 1.496 × 10^11 meters, the semi-major axis in meters is:

a = 2.5 AU * 1.496 × 10^11 m/AU = 3.74 × 10^12 m

Now, we can calculate P^2:

P^2 = (4 * π^2 * (3.74 × 10^12 m)^3) / (6.67430 × 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2 * 2.386164 × 10^30 kg)

P^2 = (4 * π^2 * 5.62 × 10^36 m^3) / (1.589 × 10^20 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2)

P^2 = (4 * π^2 * 5.62 × 10^36 m^3) / (1.589 × 10^20 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2)

P^2 = 4.15 × 10^16 s^2

Now, we take the square root to find the orbital period in seconds:

P = √(4.15 × 10^16 s^2) ≈ 2.04 × 10^8 s

Finally, we convert the orbital period from seconds to Earth years (1 Earth year = 31,557,600 seconds):

P = (2.04 × 10^8 s) / (31,557,600 s/year) ≈ 6.47 years

Therefore, the orbital period of the exoplanet is approximately 6.47 Earth years.

Language translation task

In this task, let’s test Mistral’s new Tekken tokenizer. Mistral states that the tokenizer is two times and three times more efficient at compressing Korean and Arabic, respectively.

Here, we use some text for translation:

text= """
"How can our business leverage Mistral NeMo with our new RAG application?"
"What is our change management strategy once we roll out this new application to the field?
"""

We set our prompt to instruct the model on the translation to Korean and Arabic:

prompt=f"""

text={text}

Translate the following text into these languages:

1. Korean
2. Arabic

Label each language section accordingly""".format(text=text)

We can then set the payload:

payload = {
    "messages": [
        {   "role": "system",
            "content": "You are an expert in language translation.",
            "role": "user",
            "content": prompt
        }
    ],
    "max_tokens": 2048,
    "temperature": 0.3,
    "top_p": 0.9,
}
#response = predictor.predict(payload)
text_response = predictor.predict(payload)['choices'][0]['message']['content'].strip()
tokens = predictor.predict(payload)['usage']
print(text_response)
print(tokens)

The following is the output:

**1. Korean**

- "우리의 비즈니스가 Mistral NeMo를 어떻게 활용할 수 있을까요?"
- "이 새 애플리케이션을 현장에 롤아웃할 때 우리의 변화 관리 전략은 무엇입니까?"

**2. Arabic**

- "كيف يمكن لعمليتنا الاست من Mistral NeMo مع تطبيق RAG الجديد؟"
- "ما هو استراتيجيتنا في إدارة التغيير بعد تفعيل هذا التطبيق الجديد في الميدان؟"
{'prompt_tokens': 61, 'completion_tokens': 243, 'total_tokens': 304}

The translation results demonstrate how the number of completion_tokens used is significantly reduced, even for tasks that are typically token-intensive, such as translations involving languages like Korean and Arabic. This improvement is made possible by the optimizations provided by the Tekken tokenizer. Such a reduction is particularly valuable for token-heavy applications, including summarization, language generation, and multi-turn conversations. By enhancing token efficiency, the Tekken tokenizer allows for more tasks to be handled within the same resource constraints, making it an invaluable tool for optimizing workflows where token usage directly impacts performance and cost.

Clean up

After you’re done running the notebook, make sure to delete all resources that you created in the process to avoid additional billing. Use the following code:

predictor.delete_model()
predictor.delete_endpoint()
