It supports low-latency and high-quality speech interactions, simultaneously generating both text and speech responses based on speech instructions.
## 🔥 News - [25/05] LLaMA-Omni 2 is accepted at ACL 2025 main conference! - [25/05] An improved version of InstructS2S-200K is publicly available at [this link](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ICTNLP/Multiturn-Speech-Conversations). We have extended it to multi-turn conversations and diversified the input speech timbres. Sorry for the long wait! - [25/04] We release [LLaMA-Omni2](https://github.com/ictnlp/LLaMA-Omni2), a series of speech language models ranging from 0.5B to 32B parameters, offering improved response quality and speech generation quality. - [25/01] LLaMA-Omni is accepted at ICLR 2025! See you in Singapore! ## 💡 Highlights - 💪 **Built on Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct, ensuring high-quality responses.** - 🚀 **Low-latency speech interaction with a latency as low as 226ms.** - 🎧 **Simultaneous generation of both text and speech responses.** - ♻️ **Trained in less than 3 days using just 4 GPUs.** https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2b097af8-47d7-494f-b3b3-6be17ca0247a ## Install 1. Clone this repository. ```shell git clone https://github.com/ictnlp/LLaMA-Omni cd LLaMA-Omni ``` 2. Install packages. ```shell conda create -n llama-omni python=3.10 conda activate llama-omni pip install pip==24.0 pip install -e . ``` 3. Install `fairseq`. ```shell git clone https://github.com/pytorch/fairseq cd fairseq pip install -e . --no-build-isolation ``` 4. Install `flash-attention`. ```shell pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation ``` ## Quick Start 1. Download the `Llama-3.1-8B-Omni` model from 🤗[Huggingface](https://huggingface.co/ICTNLP/Llama-3.1-8B-Omni). 2. Download the `Whisper-large-v3` model. ```shell import whisper model = whisper.load_model("large-v3", download_root="models/speech_encoder/") ``` 3. Download the unit-based HiFi-GAN vocoder. ```shell wget https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/fairseq/speech_to_speech/vocoder/code_hifigan/mhubert_vp_en_es_fr_it3_400k_layer11_km1000_lj/g_00500000 -P vocoder/ wget https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/fairseq/speech_to_speech/vocoder/code_hifigan/mhubert_vp_en_es_fr_it3_400k_layer11_km1000_lj/config.json -P vocoder/ ``` ## Gradio Demo 1. Launch a controller. ```shell python -m omni_speech.serve.controller --host 0.0.0.0 --port 10000 ``` 2. Launch a gradio web server. ```shell python -m omni_speech.serve.gradio_web_server --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 8000 --model-list-mode reload --vocoder vocoder/g_00500000 --vocoder-cfg vocoder/config.json ``` 3. Launch a model worker. ```shell python -m omni_speech.serve.model_worker --host 0.0.0.0 --controller http://localhost:10000 --port 40000 --worker http://localhost:40000 --model-path Llama-3.1-8B-Omni --model-name Llama-3.1-8B-Omni --s2s ``` 4. Visit [http://localhost:8000/](http://localhost:8000/) and interact with LLaMA-3.1-8B-Omni! **Note: Due to the instability of streaming audio playback in Gradio, we have only implemented streaming audio synthesis without enabling autoplay. If you have a good solution, feel free to submit a PR. Thanks!** ## Local Inference To run inference locally, please organize the speech instruction files according to the format in the `omni_speech/infer/examples` directory, then refer to the following script. ```shell ba ```` --- **Machine-readable endpoints** - JSON: [`/api/graphcanon/tools/ictnlp-llama-omni`](/api/graphcanon/tools/ictnlp-llama-omni) - LLM index: [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) - Full corpus: [/llms-full.txt](/llms-full.txt) _GraphCanon - The knowledge graph for AI development. https://www.graphcanon.com/_
