from transformers import NemotronHModel, NemotronHConfig
This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a NemotronHModel. It is used to instantiate a Nemotron H model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-BF16
Configuration objects inherit from [PreTrainedConfig] and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from [PreTrainedConfig] for more information.

Parameters
- input_ids (
torch.LongTensorof shape(batch_size, sequence_length), optional) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default.Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.
- attention_mask (
torch.Tensorof shape(batch_size, sequence_length), optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in[0, 1]:- 1 for tokens that are not masked,
- 0 for tokens that are masked.
- position_ids (
torch.LongTensorof shape(batch_size, sequence_length), optional) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range[0, config.n_positions - 1]. - past_key_values (
~models.nemotron_h.modeling_nemotron_h.NemotronHHybridDynamicCache, optional) — Pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention blocks) that can be used to speed up sequential decoding. This typically consists in thepast_key_valuesreturned by the model at a previous stage of decoding, whenuse_cache=Trueorconfig.use_cache=True.Only Cache instance is allowed as input, see our kv cache guide. If no
past_key_valuesare passed, DynamicCache will be initialized by default.The model will output the same cache format that is fed as input.
If
past_key_valuesare used, the user is expected to input only unprocessedinput_ids(those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape(batch_size, unprocessed_length)instead of allinput_idsof shape(batch_size, sequence_length). - inputs_embeds (
torch.FloatTensorof shape(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size), optional) — Optionally, instead of passinginput_idsyou can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convertinput_idsindices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix. - labels (
torch.LongTensorof shape(batch_size, sequence_length), optional) — Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in[0, ..., config.vocab_size]or -100 (seeinput_idsdocstring). Tokens with indices set to-100are ignored (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in[0, ..., config.vocab_size]. - use_cache (
bool, optional) — If set toTrue,past_key_valueskey value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (seepast_key_values). - logits_to_keep (
Union[int, torch.Tensor], optional, defaults to0) — If anint, compute logits for the lastlogits_to_keeptokens. If0, calculate logits for allinput_ids(special case). Only last token logits are needed for generation, and calculating them only for that token can save memory, which becomes pretty significant for long sequences or large vocabulary size. If atorch.Tensor, must be 1D corresponding to the indices to keep in the sequence length dimension. This is useful when using packed tensor format (single dimension for batch and sequence length).
Returns
CausalLMOutputWithPast or tuple(torch.FloatTensor)
A CausalLMOutputWithPast or a tuple of
torch.FloatTensor (if return_dict=False is passed or when config.return_dict=False) comprising various
elements depending on the configuration (NemotronHConfig) and inputs.
The NemotronHForCausalLM forward method, overrides the __call__ special method.
Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the
Moduleinstance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.
loss (
torch.FloatTensorof shape(1,), optional, returned whenlabelsis provided) — Language modeling loss (for next-token prediction).logits (
torch.FloatTensorof shape(batch_size, sequence_length, config.vocab_size)) — Prediction scores of the language modeling head (scores for each vocabulary token before SoftMax).past_key_values (
Cache, optional, returned whenuse_cache=Trueis passed or whenconfig.use_cache=True) — It is a Cache instance. For more details, see our kv cache guide.Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks) that can be used (see
past_key_valuesinput) to speed up sequential decoding.hidden_states (
tuple(torch.FloatTensor), optional, returned whenoutput_hidden_states=Trueis passed or whenconfig.output_hidden_states=True) — Tuple oftorch.FloatTensor(one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size).Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.
attentions (
tuple(torch.FloatTensor), optional, returned whenoutput_attentions=Trueis passed or whenconfig.output_attentions=True) — Tuple oftorch.FloatTensor(one for each layer) of shape(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length).Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.
